Why Choose the ILME CXM8/24 Male Insert?
The ILME CXM8/24 is a compact and reliable male multipole connector insert designed to combine power and auxiliary connections within a single heavy-duty industrial connector. As part of the ILME CX series, it provides eight main power poles, 24 auxiliary poles and a protective earth connection for machinery, automation and industrial electrical systems.
The CXM8/24 uses crimp connection technology to provide secure, vibration-resistant conductor termination. Its mixed-contact configuration allows power and control or signal circuits to be carried through one connector interface, helping reduce installation space, simplify wiring and make equipment easier to connect and disconnect during installation or maintenance.
The eight main poles are rated at 16 A and 230/400 V, while the 24 auxiliary contacts are rated at 10 A and 160 V. Designed in the compact size 57.27 format, the CXM8/24 is suitable for industrial machinery and control systems where a high density of power and auxiliary connections is required.
