CXM6/12 Ilme Male insert 6 pole and earth 40amp and 12pole 10amp crimp

Why Choose the ILME CXM6/12 Male Mixed-Pole Insert?

The ILME CXM6/12 is a versatile male mixed-pole heavy-duty connector insert designed to combine power, control and auxiliary circuits within a single industrial connector. Part of the ILME CX series, it provides 6 power poles plus protective earth together with 12 auxiliary poles, offering an efficient connection solution for industrial machinery and automation equipment.

The CXM6/12 uses crimp termination, enabling secure and dependable conductor connections using separately selected contacts. Its six main power positions are rated at 40 A and 690 V, while the twelve auxiliary positions are rated at 10 A and 230/400 V, allowing higher-current power and lower-current control circuits to be carried through the same connector assembly.

Designed in the compact size 77.27 format, the CXM6/12 is compatible with suitable ILME heavy-duty connector enclosures. Its durable polycarbonate construction, wide operating temperature range and minimum 500-cycle mechanical life make it well suited to demanding industrial installations requiring reliable and serviceable mixed power and signal connectivity.

Combined Power and Control Connectivity

Mixed-pole inserts such as the ILME CXM6/12 enable higher-current power circuits and lower-current control or auxiliary circuits to share a single heavy-duty connector. The six 40 A positions can accommodate demanding power connections, while the twelve 10 A positions provide additional capacity for control, signalling and auxiliary wiring.

This integrated arrangement can simplify machine interfaces and reduce the number of separate connectors required. The crimp termination system provides reliable electrical connections, while the CXM6/12's robust insulating body and compatibility with protective ILME enclosures make it suitable for demanding industrial environments.
