FAQs
The VGE1PS320008 is designed as a straight adaptor backshell with a 32 mm shell size, intended to mate with other VGE1-FER1 series connectors. For optimal results, ensure the mating connector is the same shell size and uses the same backshell configuration. This alignment supports quick, repeatable field assembly and avoids mis-mates, reducing downtime.
This connector carries UL94 V0 flammability certification, and is explicitly described as fire and smoke certified. It is RoHS and REACH compliant, which supports regulatory requirements in many regions. Together, these certifications help accelerate qualification, minimize risk in safety-critical enclosures, and support your EHS documentation package.
Industries including industrial automation, process manufacturing, and infrastructure electrical installations benefit from its fire/smoke certification, corrosion resistance, and rugged aluminium shell. Applications such as control panels, safety enclosures, and harsh-environment wiring harnesses gain faster installation, improved longevity, and better regulatory compliance in mission-critical wiring.
The connector complies with RoHS and REACH directives, and features a UL94 V0 flammability rating for fire safety. Its 500-hour salt spray resistance adds corrosion protection for outdoor or damp environments. This combination supports regulatory approvals, reduces risk during audits, and simplifies supplier sustainability reporting.
The combination of fast bayonet mating, compact form factor, and robust environmental ratings reduces assembly time and field service costs. Improved reliability lowers maintenance downtime, while regulatory compliance minimizes qualification cycles. For projects with tight schedules and strict safety standards, this connector can shorten time-to-market and decrease total cost of ownership.
