CIF Q05 2.4 ILME PCB mount interface 5 contacts for CQ 05, 2.4mm board

Why Choose the Ilme CIF Q05 2.4 PCB Interface Adapter?

The Ilme CIF Q05 2.4 is a compact PCB interface adapter for CQ 05 industrial connector inserts, designed to simplify cable-to-printed-circuit-board connections in power electronics, control and signal applications. The adapter provides interfaces for 5 contacts and is suitable for printed circuit boards up to 2.4 mm thick.

Designed for use with compatible CQF 05 and CQM 05 inserts equipped with the appropriate interface contacts, the CIF Q05 2.4 allows the connector contacts to pass through the adapter for solder termination to the PCB. Its electrical rating is 10 A at 250 V with a rated impulse withstand voltage of 4 kV, making it suitable for compact industrial power and signal interfaces.

The CIF Q05 2.4 supports modular equipment design by allowing PCB assemblies and connector wiring to be produced and serviced efficiently. With an operating temperature range of -40 °C to +125 °C and insulating material suitable for PCB wave-soldering processes, it provides a practical interface for production machinery, automation equipment and replaceable electronic assemblies.

Key Advantages

• Provides a direct cable-to-PCB interface for compatible Ilme CQ 05 connector inserts.
• Supports 5 contact positions for power and signal applications.
• Suitable for printed circuit boards up to 2.4 mm thick.

Reliable Cable-to-PCB Connectivity for Industrial Electronics

The Ilme CIF Q05 2.4 provides an efficient interface between CQ 05 heavy-duty connector inserts and printed circuit boards. A compatible CQF 05 female insert uses CCFFA female interface contacts, while a CQM 05 male insert uses CCMFA male interface contacts. Their rear solder posts pass through the CIF adapter and are soldered directly to the PCB, supporting compact and repeatable production assemblies.

The protective earth connection requires separate consideration because the CIF Q05 2.4 does not provide the PE connection itself. The PCB layout must include a suitable pass-through opening for the PE conductor from the screw-type PE terminal of the CQ 05 insert, and PE continuity must be maintained in accordance with the connector, PCB and equipment design. This arrangement allows the adapter to simplify signal and power termination without compromising the required protective-earth design of the finished equipment.

Typical Applications

• Industrial control and automation PCBs.
• Power electronics equipment.
• PLC and distributed control assemblies.
• Modular electronic machinery systems.
• Replaceable PCB control modules.
• Cable-to-board interfaces using Ilme CQ 05 connectors.
