Eaton VGE1PS241008M Bayonet Connector - Fire & Smoke Certified
Part Number: VGE1PS241008M
Quick Summary
The Eaton VGE1PS241008M is a fire and smoke certified bayonet connector designed for reliable wiring in harsh industrial control panels. Engineers often struggle with achieving consistent fire-safety certification and compact density in crowded enclosures. This device delivers UL94 V0 flame rating, RoHS and REACH compliance, and explicit fire and smoke certification to support stringent safety programs. With a 24-position layout and an aluminium shell, it combines compactness with durability, while a straight backshell and adaptor design speeds assembly in tight cabinet spaces. The 52 mm length, 40 mm width and 40 mm height keep assemblies compact, and the 68 g weight helps reduce overall panel load. Standardization across the VGE1-FER1 family simplifies sourcing and ongoing maintenance.

Bayonet coupling with a straight backshell enables fast, tool-free mating in tight enclosures, reducing assembly time and field error. This translates to lower labor costs and improved first-pass yield on panel builds. Dense 24-position layout in a compact 52x40x40 mm package with a 68 g weight helps exploit available cabinet real estate while maintaining signal integrity for high-density automation harnesses. Aluminum shell with black anodized plating provides corrosion resistance and a durable finish, supporting long service life in harsh environments and contributing to lower maintenance costs. Operating temperature range of -40 to 100 °C, plus RoHS and REACH compliance and a 500-hour salt spray rating, ensure reliability in regulated industries and extreme conditions. Compatibility with the Souriau VGE1-FER1 series reduces procurement risk and spare-part complexity, streamlining rollout and service routines. Overall, the connector supports safe, compliant, and cost-effective manufacturing automation wiring.

FAQs
To install, align the 24-position socket with the mating plug, engage the straight backshell adaptor, and rotate the bayonet until it locks. Verify proper seating and routing of the connector to avoid bending or tightening stresses. After mating, perform a continuity check to ensure signal integrity and confirm that the enclosure remains sealed per panel requirements.
The connector operates from -40 °C to 100 °C and carries a Fire & Smoke certification with UL94 V0. It also complies with RoHS and REACH and has a salt spray rating of 500 hours, indicating strong corrosion resistance for harsh environments.
Yes. The 24-position layout in a compact 52 mm x 40 mm x 40 mm form factor, combined with a lightweight 68 g aluminium shell, supports dense harnessing. The straight backshell and adaptor design further simplify routing in tight panels while maintaining reliable, protected connections.
Certifications include Fire & Smoke certification, UL94 V0 flammability rating, RoHS, and REACH. These confirm flame resistance, restricted substance compliance, and overall regulatory alignment for electronics in manufacturing and machinery environments, helping meet industry and regional safety standards.
Benefits include reduced maintenance due to corrosion resistance from the aluminium shell with black anodized plating and a robust bayonet mating that minimizes loosening over time. The 24-position layout enables standardized, scalable wiring, and compatibility within the Souriau VGE1-FER1 family lowers spare parts and procurement costs over the product life cycle.
