Why Choose the Ilme CX10MPQV Female Metal Pneumatic Contact?
The Ilme CX10MPQV is a female metal pneumatic contact with an integrated shut-off valve, designed for compressed-air connections within Ilme MIXO modular heavy-duty connector systems. Its straight quick-fitting connection accepts pneumatic tubing with a 10 mm outside diameter, providing a compact and convenient connection for industrial machinery and automation equipment.
Part of the Ilme MIXO Pneumatic range, the CX10MPQV is designed for installation in the compatible CX02MPBF female pneumatic modular insert. The removable metal contact construction provides a durable interface while allowing pneumatic functions to be incorporated into configurable MIXO connector assemblies alongside compatible electrical, signal and data modules.
A key feature of the CX10MPQV is its integrated shut-off valve. This closes the pneumatic line when the connector is uncoupled, helping prevent unnecessary loss of compressed air from the valved side of the connection. With an operating temperature range of -40 °C to +80 °C and a mechanical life of at least 500 mating cycles, it is designed for dependable industrial service.

Quick-Fitting Pneumatic Connection with Automatic Shut-Off
The Ilme MIXO pneumatic system allows compressed-air services to be incorporated into modular heavy-duty connector assemblies. The CX10MPQV provides a 10 mm OD push-in connection for suitable pneumatic tubing, reducing the installation effort associated with traditional hose-barb connections and creating a convenient detachable air interface for industrial machinery.
Unlike the CX10MPQF version without a valve, the CX10MPQV incorporates a shut-off valve. When the connector is disconnected, the valve closes the pneumatic path on the female contact side, helping minimise compressed-air loss. When correctly installed with the compatible CX02MPBF module and corresponding mating components, it provides a practical solution for machinery requiring frequently detachable pneumatic services.
Typical Applications
- Industrial pneumatic systems.
- Factory automation equipment.
- Pneumatic actuators and cylinders.
- Production and packaging machinery.
- Robotics and automated handling systems.
- Machine compressed-air distribution interfaces.
- Detachable machinery service connections.
- OEM equipment using Ilme MIXO modular connectors.
