Why Choose the ILME CNEM16TX Male Screw Insert?
The ILME CNEM16TX is a male multipole connector insert from the ILME CNE series, designed for reliable power and control connections in industrial machinery and automation systems. It provides 16 poles plus protective earth in the standard size 77.27 format, allowing multiple circuits to be connected through a single heavy-duty connector assembly.
The CNEM16TX uses a screw terminal connection and is specifically designed without a conductor-protection plate for prepared conductors. It accepts conductor cross-sections from 0.25–2.50 mm² (AWG 24–14), making it suitable for conductors fitted with appropriate bush terminals while providing a secure and serviceable industrial wiring solution.
Rated at 16 A and 500 V, with a 6 kV rated impulse withstand voltage and pollution degree 3, the CNEM16TX is engineered for demanding industrial environments. Its turned silver-plated contacts and robust thermoplastic construction provide dependable electrical performance across repeated mating cycles.

Secure Screw-Terminal Connections for Prepared Conductors
The ILME CNEM16TX combines a high-density 16-pole plus protective-earth configuration with conventional screw-terminal technology. The TX version differs from standard plate-equipped CNE inserts because it is supplied without the conductor-protection plate and is intended for prepared conductors fitted with suitable bush terminals.
Its size 77.27 format makes the CNEM16TX suitable for a broad range of compatible ILME heavy-duty connector enclosures. When assembled with the appropriate hood or housing, the insert provides a robust detachable interface that simplifies installation, equipment replacement and maintenance across industrial machinery and automation systems.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machinery and production equipment.
- Factory automation and control systems.
- Electrical control panels and machine interfaces.
- Conveyor and material handling systems.
- Motor and actuator connections.
- Industrial installations using prepared conductors with bush terminals.
