CMEF10T Ilme Female insert 10 pole and earth and 2 aux 16 amp screw
ILME CMEF10T is a 16 A female CME series industrial connector insert with ten main poles, two auxiliary poles, protective earth, screw terminal connections and a size 104.27 format.
Why Choose the ILME CMEF10T Female Insert?
The ILME CMEF10T is a robust female industrial connector insert designed for reliable power and auxiliary connections in machinery, automation systems and heavy-duty electrical equipment. As part of the ILME CME series, it combines ten main poles, two auxiliary poles and a protective earth connection within a compact heavy-duty connector format.
The CMEF10T uses screw terminal connections for secure and straightforward conductor termination. Its ten main contacts are rated at 16 A and 830 V, while the two auxiliary contacts are rated at 16 A and 500 V. This enables power and auxiliary control or signalling circuits to be integrated within a single removable connector assembly.
Designed for size 104.27 enclosures, the CMEF10T features a self-extinguishing polycarbonate insulating body and turned silver-plated contacts. The insert is supplied with a plate and is suitable for non-prepared conductors with cross-sections from 0.50 mm² to 4.00 mm². When installed in a compatible ILME enclosure, the connector assembly can achieve IP65 / IP66 protection.
Key Advantages
- Combines 10 main poles + 2 auxiliary poles + PE in one industrial connector insert.
- 16 A rated current suitable for industrial power and control connections.
- Main contacts rated at 830 V under specified EN 61984 conditions.
