Why Choose the ILME CX02MPBM Male Pneumatic Modular Insert?
The ILME CX02MPBM is a specialised male MIXO modular insert for removable metal pneumatic contacts, designed to integrate compressed-air connections into heavy-duty industrial connector assemblies. Part of the versatile ILME MIXO modular connector series, it provides two contact housings for pneumatic connections using tubes with diameters of 8–10 mm.
This modular insert allows pneumatic circuits to be combined with compatible electrical power, signal, data and communication modules within a single ILME MIXO connector assembly. The CX02MPBM is supplied without pneumatic contacts, allowing suitable ILME metal pneumatic contacts to be selected separately according to the required tube connection and application.
Designed for clean and dry compressed air at pressures up to 10 bar, the CX02MPBM uses a durable polycarbonate insert with a UL 94 V-0 flame rating. It occupies 2 MIXO modules and offers a mechanical life of at least 500 mating cycles with standard MIXO frames and enclosures.

Reliable Pneumatic Connections for Modular Industrial Systems
The ILME MIXO system allows different connection technologies to be installed side by side within a single heavy-duty connector. The CX02MPBM extends this flexibility to pneumatic circuits, allowing compressed-air lines to be disconnected and reconnected together with the electrical and communication connections serving industrial machinery.
The CX02MPBM accommodates two removable metal pneumatic contacts and supports clean, dry compressed air at pressures up to 10 bar. Suitable ILME coding and guiding pins are required when pneumatic modules are used, while appropriate filtration and dehydration of the compressed-air supply helps prevent condensation and supports dependable long-term operation.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machinery with combined electrical and pneumatic connections.
- Factory automation and robotic equipment.
- Pneumatic actuators and control systems.
- Packaging and production machinery.
- Automated assembly and material handling systems.
- Modular heavy-duty connector assemblies requiring compressed-air connections.
