Feature → Business Impact → Application: Fire and smoke certified UL94 V0 and IP67 rating reduce risk of fire spread and water ingress, improving safety compliance and field uptime for critical control panels across factories and hazardous areas. The result is faster commissioning, fewer rewrite cycles, and lower maintenance costs when servicing safety-critical equipment. Application: Control cabinets in manufacturing lines and outdoor installations where fire and environmental protection are required. Feature → Business Impact → Application: 10-contact (#16) crimp contacts in a square flange receptacle provide high channel density with secure, modular connectivity, enabling compact wiring harnesses and simplified routing. This translates to shorter assembly times and easier traceability in panel builds. Application: Servo drives and PLC I/O modules in automation systems. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Aluminium shell, 18 shell size, 41 g weight deliver a rugged yet lightweight enclosure interface that supports dense panel layouts and reduces overall weight in portable or space-constrained installations. Application: Mobile or remote machinery where weight reduction matters. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Operating temperature range -40 °C to 100 °C, salt spray resistance (500 hours), and longevity (500 mating cycles) boost reliability in extreme environments, minimizing unexpected downtime. Application: Outdoor, chemical, or high-vibration plants requiring durable electrical connections. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Square flange receptacle with N orientation and bayonet-style mating improves mounting alignment and installation speed, reducing commissioning time and operator errors. Application: Marine, wind, or outdoor industrial apps where repeatable, vibration-resistant connections are essential. Feature → Business Impact → Application: RoHS and REACH compliance, plus fire and smoke certification, ensure regulatory alignment and safer lifecycle management, supporting audits and end-user assurance. Application: Any regulated automation project seeking traceable, compliant connectors.

FAQs
The FER1B1819PZ is designed as a square flange receptacle to stack cleanly within panel cutouts. Its 18 shell size and 45.5 mm width support compact, precise mounting, while the N orientation aids alignment during installation. This makes it compatible with standard enclosure designs that accept Souriau VGE1 style modules.
It houses ten crimped #16 contacts in a single receptacle, supporting a dense, reliable wiring interface. The crimp contacts are designed for consistent mating cycles and robust current transfer, with 500 mating cycles specified to support frequent connect-disconnect scenarios in automated systems.
Yes. The unit features IP67 protection, a UL94 V0 fire and smoke certification, salt spray resistance for 500 hours, and an operating temperature range from -40 °C to 100 °C, making it well-suited for outdoor installations, industrial plants, and environments with temperature swings.
Key certifications include IP67 ingress protection, UL94 V0 flammability, and RoHS/REACH compliance. These ensure safe usage in critical applications, environmental compliance for European and global markets, and reduced risk during audits and product lifecycle management.
The 10-pin bayonet-style interface with a compact aluminium shell enables quick mounting, high-density harnessing, and straightforward replacement in service scenarios. With 500 mating cycles and a lightweight design, maintenance costs are minimized, and reliability is enhanced for long-term total cost of ownership in automation projects.
