Eaton FER1B2214SW Bayonet Connector - Fire & Smoke Certified

Feature → Business Impact → Application: Fire and smoke certified design reduces regulatory risk and enhances equipment safety, translating to safer machinery and compliant installations in control panels and safety enclosures. Feature → 19 contact positions in a 14-layout square flange receptacle delivers higher connector density, enabling compact, modular panel designs that save enclosure space and simplify wiring harness routing in factory automation. Feature → Aluminium shell with a robust shell size 22 and IP67 protection provides durable, corrosion-resistant performance in harsh industrial environments, reducing field failures and maintenance costs for outdoor or wash-down applications. Feature → Thread coupling and crimp contact delivery support quick, reliable mating and secure connections, cutting commissioning time and improving installation consistency across multiple machines. Feature → 500 mating cycles and a wide operating temperature range (-40 °C to 100 °C) ensure long-term reliability in demanding production lines and temperature-variant environments. Feature → Fire and smoke certification alongside RoHS and REACH compliance reinforces regulatory alignment for sectors with strict safety and environmental requirements, aiding procurement and audits. Compatibility and installation advantages include seamless integration with the Souriau VGE1 ecosystem, standardized mounting with square flange receptacles, and straightforward field replacement when spares are needed. Industry context notes that similar connectors reduce downtime by enabling quick fault isolation and rapid panel reconfiguration without sacrificing performance.
