FAQs
To ensure reliable mating, align the 22‑position layout with the straight backshell and insert the male contacts fully before engaging the bayonet coupling. Verify the adaptor seating and grommet seal for dust and moisture resistance. Use compatible harnesses from the Souriau VGE1-FER1 family to maintain consistent pin alignment and conductivity across cycles.
The VGE1PS221408L is Fire & Smoke certified with UL94 V0 flammability, and it complies with RoHS and REACH requirements. This combination supports regulatory compliance in aerospace, rail, and industrial automation applications, reducing audit time and ensuring safer long-term operation in environments with strict fire-safety codes.
Yes. The 22‑position layout and aluminium, black‑anodized shell are designed for high-density wiring inside compact panels. The straight adaptor and male contacts provide a reliable, repeatable mating interface, which is critical for avionics and rail control systems that require dependable connections under vibration and temperature changes.
This connector operates from -40 °C to 100 °C and endures at least 500 hours of salt spray, indicating strong corrosion resistance and long-term reliability. The aluminium shell and hard anodized finish further enhance durability against mechanical wear and environmental exposure typical in industrial and transportation environments.
The VGE1PS221408L reduces maintenance risk by delivering robust fire/smoke certification and high durability, lowering field failure rates and rework. Its standardized Souriau VGE1-FER1 family interface simplifies spares management and onboarding, accelerating installation, upgrades, and repairs in complex control systems.
