FAQs
Yes. The VGE1RS40A6000L uses a straight backshell adaptor design and 40 shell size with a 40A60 layout, enabling straightforward mating with compatible Eaton Souriau interfaces. Check panel cut-outs to ensure 51 mm depth clearance and verify mating orientation to maintain the UL94 V0 and RoHS/REACH compliance during retrofit.
Expect a temperature range of -40 °C to 100 °C, a salt spray durability of 500 hours, and a robust aluminum outer shell with black anodized plating. The connector uses pin male contacts in a straight adaptor backshell configuration, supporting reliable electrical connections under demanding operating conditions.
Yes. It is designed specifically for fire and smoke certified applications, carrying UL94 V0 flammability rating and compliance to RoHS and REACH. Its A60 layout and straight backshell support high-integrity wiring in safety-critical enclosures, aligning with industry standards for safety and regulatory compliance.
Certifications include UL94 V0 flammability and RoHS/REACH compliance, with an aluminium shell and black anodized plating for corrosion resistance. These features reduce maintenance frequency, extend service life in harsh environments, and minimize regulatory risk during audits and product lifecycle management.
The straight backshell adaptor design, 40 shell size, and A60 layout enable faster mating and harnessing, reducing installation time. Lightweight aluminium construction lowers handling effort, while durable finish and wide operating temperature range minimize replacement and downtime, delivering a favorable return on investment through reduced labor and warranty exposure.
