Fire and smoke certification is more than a label; it reduces regulatory risk and supports compliant audits in safety-critical enclosures. By meeting UL94 V0 flammability requirements and maintaining RoHS/REACH compliance, this connector helps you pass facility and product inspections without costly redesigns. In practice, use it in machine controls, electrical cabinets, and process enclosures where fire safety is non-negotiable. Rugged aluminium shell with black anodized plating delivers corrosion resistance and light weight, improving long-term reliability in demanding environments. The adaptor-style backshell and robust finish simplify field maintenance and enable consistent mating performance across assemblies, reducing rework and warranty claims. This is especially valuable in industrial automation panels exposed to dust, humidity, or vibration. 32-position layout with a straight backshell provides high-density connectivity and straightforward alignment during installation. The pin (male) contacts ensure a positive, secure mating that supports signal integrity in multi-node control schemes, while the 51 mm length fits compact enclosures. Operating temperature from -40 °C to 100 °C enables operation across diverse climates and industrial processes, reducing the need for multiple variants and lowering total cost of ownership. Salt spray resistance up to 500 hours adds corrosion protection in harsh environments and reduces maintenance intervals, while RoHS and REACH support global deployment and reliable performance in automation and packaging lines.

FAQs

To install the VGE1PS32A1308L, align the 32-pin layout with the mating VGE1-FER1 series counterpart, insert the straight adaptor into the panel cutout, and engage the bayonet coupling until it seats with a positive latch. The backshell adaptor provides a secure, shielded connection option, and the aluminium housing simplifies mounting with reduced weight. Verify RoHS/REACH compliance in your build and ensure operating temperature limits match your environment.
The connector carries UL94 V0 flammability certification, indicating flame-retardant performance. It also supports RoHS and REACH compliance for restricted substances and chemical safety. Additionally, it is designed for fire and smoke certified applications, helping you meet safety standards in enclosures where fire risk must be managed, such as control cabinets and machinery housings.
Yes. The connector is rated for an operating range from -40 °C to 100 °C, enabling reliable performance in harsh industrial environments, outdoor installations, or unmanned facilities. This wide temperature tolerance reduces the need for multiple part variants and supports global deployment across diverse climates.
The 32-position layout provides high-density connectivity within a compact footprint, ideal for multi-channel control systems and distributed automation architectures. The straight backshell simplifies mating alignment, improving installation speed and reducing the risk of misalignment. The male pin contacts ensure robust electrical continuity and consistent signal integrity across interconnected modules.
The straight adaptor backshell enables straightforward, tool-free mating and a clean panel silhouette, reducing assembly time and potential misalignment. Its aluminium construction offers corrosion resistance and light weight, easing handling during installation and maintenance. Together with the fire/smoke certification and protective plating, it supports long-term reliability and lower life-cycle costs in demanding automation environments.
