Why Choose the Ilme CQM21 Male Crimp Insert?
The Ilme CQM21 is a compact, high-density male multipole connector insert designed for reliable electrical connections in industrial machinery, automation systems and control equipment. Part of the Ilme CQ series, it provides 21 poles and uses crimp termination to create secure, serviceable conductor connections.
With a rated current of 6.5 A, the CQM21 is particularly suited to multi-circuit control and signal connections where a large number of contacts must be accommodated within a limited space. Its compact 21.21 size enables high connection density while maintaining the convenience of a detachable rectangular industrial connector system.
The CQM21 is designed for installation in compatible Ilme housings and for use with separately selected male crimp contacts. Its robust insulating construction and high-density 21-pole arrangement make it a practical solution for machine builders, panel manufacturers and automation engineers requiring compact and maintainable electrical interfaces.
