FAQs
The VGE1PS32A1308M is designed for use in industrial control panels and safety systems with a straight backshell adaptor and 32-position layout. It features a socket (female) contact and an aluminium shell with black anodized plating, enabling straightforward routing in space-constrained panels and reliable mating in Souriau VGE1-FER1 series compatible assemblies.
Key specs include a 51 mm length, 52 mm height, and 52 mm width with a 32-position layout. It uses an aluminium shell with black anodized plating, operates from -40 °C to 100 °C, and withstands up to 500 hours of salt spray. Certifications include UL94 V0, RoHS, and REACH compliance, with a 106 g weight.
Yes. It is part of the fire and smoke certified VGE1-FER1 family and carries UL94 V0 flammability rating, along with RoHS and REACH compliance. These features help ensure conformance with safety and environmental regulations in critical applications such as machinery control systems and safety panels.
The straight backshell adaptor provides a direct, linear mating path that minimizes required clearance, simplifies panel layout, and reduces misalignment risk. Combined with the 32-position layout, it enables compact wiring in constrained enclosures, improving installation speed and reducing panel cutouts in high-density control systems.
The aluminium shell with black anodized plating offers enhanced corrosion resistance, supporting longer service life in harsh environments. The connector’s RoHS/REACH compliance simplifies regulatory upkeep, while its robust fire/smoke certification reduces risk of non-compliance, contributing to lower maintenance costs and predictable long-term performance.
