Why Choose the Ilme CQEF46N Female Insert?
The Ilme CQEF46N is a high-density 46-pole plus earth female multipole connector insert designed for reliable signal and control connections in industrial machinery, automation equipment and electrical systems. Part of the Ilme CQE series, it combines a large number of contacts with a compact heavy-duty connector format, making it particularly useful where numerous circuits must be connected through a single detachable interface.
The CQEF46N uses crimp termination, providing secure, consistent and vibration-resistant conductor connections when assembled with compatible Ilme female crimp contacts. Its high contact density helps reduce the number of separate connectors required in complex machinery while simplifying installation, testing and maintenance.
With 46 poles plus protective earth and a rated current of 16 A, the CQEF46N is suited to multi-circuit industrial applications involving control, signal and power distribution. Its female contact configuration is designed to mate with the corresponding male CQE insert as part of a complete Ilme heavy-duty connector assembly.
