ILME CRCPQ is a red plastic coding pin for CDC, CQ, CQE, CCE, CMCE and MIXO 16 A connector inserts, designed to help prevent incorrect mating between identical industrial connectors.

The ILME CRCPQ is a dedicated coding pin for ILME multipole connector inserts, designed to help prevent incorrect mating between otherwise identical industrial connectors. Also identified by ILME as CR CPQ, this accessory is suitable for CDC, CQ, CQE, CCE, CMCE and MIXO 16 A inserts.
The coding pin is manufactured from red plastic and is installed in a contact cavity of the female connector insert in place of a crimp contact. The corresponding contact position in the male insert is left empty, creating a mechanical coding arrangement that prevents connectors with incompatible functions from being accidentally mated.
Using one or more CRCPQ coding pins allows multiple identical connector assemblies installed close together to be differentiated. This provides a simple and effective method of reducing connection errors in machinery, control panels, production equipment and modular industrial wiring systems.
Industrial installations can contain several identical multipole connectors positioned close together. Without a coding system, it may be possible to connect a mobile connector to the wrong corresponding fixed connector, potentially resulting in incorrect electrical connections, equipment malfunction or damage.
The ILME CRCPQ provides a straightforward mechanical coding method. The pin occupies a selected contact position in the female insert while the matching position in the male insert remains vacant. Different pin combinations can therefore be used to distinguish connector pairs while retaining the same basic connector and insert families.

The ILME CRCPQ is a mechanical coding pin used to distinguish compatible connector pairs and help prevent identical multipole connectors from being connected incorrectly.
The CRCPQ is designed for CDC, CQ, CQE, CCE, CMCE and MIXO 16 A connector inserts.
The coding pin is inserted into a selected contact cavity of the female insert in place of a crimp contact, while the corresponding cavity of the male insert is left empty.
Yes. Multiple coding pins can be positioned in different contact cavities to create a larger number of selected mating combinations between otherwise identical connectors.
The ILME CRCPQ coding pin is manufactured from red plastic, making it readily identifiable during connector assembly and maintenance.
ILME coding accessories provide a practical method of differentiating industrial multipole connectors, helping machine builders, panel manufacturers and maintenance engineers reduce the risk of incorrect connector mating.
