FAQs
To install, verify panel cutout compatibility with the 51 mm depth and 63 mm width, insert the straight adaptor with the female grommet, then secure the outer housing to ensure proper mating alignment. Use appropriate panel seals to maintain fire and smoke certification integrity. The bayonet coupling provides fast, vibration-resistant mating with repeatable connect/disconnect cycles.
This connector supports a 40 A layout A35 with an aluminium shell and black anodized plating for robust current handling and enhanced corrosion resistance. Its operating range of -40 to 100 °C, UL94 V0 rating, and RoHS/REACH compliance ensure dependable performance in demanding environments such as automation cells, conveyors, and outdoor equipment.
Yes, the combination of corrosion resistance from the aluminium shell and anodized finish, along with salt spray endurance (500 hours), makes it suitable for rail and marine environments. Its compact form factor and high-current capability support safe, reliable connectivity in constrained spaces typical of locomotives, ferries, and offshore machinery.
The VGE1PS40A3507M carries RoHS and REACH compliance, UL94 V0 flammability rating, and explicit fire & smoke certification. These certifications ensure material safety, reduced hazardous substances, and performance in fire scenarios, which are critical for electrical enclosures, building automation, and safety-critical equipment across industries.
The bayonet coupling minimizes wear from repeated mating cycles and provides secure, vibration-resistant connections that reduce downtime. The aluminium, black-anodized shell resists corrosion, extending service life in harsh environments. Lightweight weight (119 g) and compact dimensions simplify replacements and logistics, delivering total cost of ownership benefits over traditional connectors.
