Fire and smoke certification and RoHS/REACH compliance provide immediate regulatory peace-of-mind and enhanced safety in critical environments, reducing risk and audit overhead while enabling compliant system integration. This translates to faster deployments in safety‑driven sectors such as rail and industrial automation, where proven fire resistance and material purity are non‑negotiable. The aluminium shell with black anodized plating delivers superior corrosion and wear resistance, extending service life in dusty or humid facilities and keeping maintenance cycles longer. A 90° backshell and adaptor design improve routing in tight enclosures, speeding assembly and reducing field errors during installation. With shell size 40 and compact dimensions, the connector enables dense harness layouts without sacrificing mechanical integrity. The product’s operating range from -40 °C to 100 °C and 500 hour salt spray resilience further support reliability in outdoor or severe indoor conditions. Compatibility with the VGE1-FER1 series ensures scalable solutions and simplified procurement across Eaton Souriau connectors. Tighter tolerance and robust construction also address common objections about aluminium versus plastic housings, delivering a durable alternative with a favorable total cost of ownership.
