Why Choose the ILME CQM 05 Male Insert?

The ILME CQM 05 is a compact male industrial connector insert designed to provide 5 poles plus protective earth (5P+PE) within the space-saving size 21.21 connector format. Its compact multipole arrangement makes it well suited to industrial machinery, automation equipment and control applications where installation space is limited.

Rated at 16 A, the CQM 05 uses crimp termination to provide secure and repeatable electrical connections. Crimp contacts are selected separately to match the required conductor cross-section, allowing the connector assembly to be configured for the specific wiring requirements of the application.

The dedicated protective earth connection supports safe equipment integration, while the detachable connector format simplifies machine assembly, installation and maintenance. When installed in a suitable ILME size 21.21 hood or housing and paired with the corresponding female insert, the CQM 05 provides a compact and dependable industrial connection interface.
