Eaton VGE1SS200000 Bayonet Connector - Fire & Smoke
Part Number: VGE1SS200000
Quick Summary
The Eaton VGE1SS200000 is a bayonet connector designed for fire and smoke containment in harsh industrial environments. This solution addresses the common pain point of sourcing certified, mechanically robust connectors that fit straight backshell configurations for flexible conduit. The VGE1-FER1 series carries RoHS compliance, UL94 V0 flammability rating, and REACH fire and smoke certifications, helping you meet stringent safety and environmental standards across critical facilities. By pairing aluminium shells with durable black anodized plating and a straight backshell, it delivers reliable performance in tight spaces and challenging temperature ranges. This translates to faster installation, reduced rework, and smoother procurement cycles for electrical assemblies in plant automation and safety-critical systems.

Fire and smoke certification ensures safety and regulatory compliance for life-safety systems in industrial plants, reducing risk and possible costly downtime. The business impact is clear: certified components streamline audits and accelerate project timelines, especially in critical enclosures and control cabinets. Application: ideal for safety-critical machinery and panel assemblies where strict fire and smoke performance is mandated. Aluminium shell with black anodized plating reduces weight while delivering corrosion resistance, extending service life in humid or outdoor environments. This translates to lower maintenance costs and fewer replacement cycles during the equipment lifetime. Application: outdoor panels, wash-down areas, and harsh manufacturing settings. Backshell type For Flexible Conduit with Straight angle simplifies routing in tight installations, enabling faster assembly and consistent connectivity. Application: compact control panels and machine-mounted junctions that demand predictable fit and easy field assembly. Shell size 20, with dimensions 87.1 mm length and 33 mm by 33 mm footprint, and a lightweight 45 g, deliver a compact, robust form factor. Application: space-constrained electrical junctions and panel connections. Operating temp range -40 °C to 100 °C and salt spray endurance of 500 hours provide reliability in extreme conditions. RoHS, UL94 V0, and REACH certifications support regulatory compliance and environmental responsibility. Application: deployments in regulated environments and multi-region facilities.

FAQs
The VGE1SS200000 is designed for straightforward field assembly with a straight backshell, compatible with flexible conduit. Ensure the conduit is properly seated, the locking mechanism aligns with the mating connector, and installation torque remains within spec to maintain seal integrity and fire/smoke certification. The 87.1 mm body length provides a predictable footprint for panel cutouts and routing.
This connector is RoHS compliant, UL94 V0 rated for flame retardancy, and REACH certified for environmental safety. It also carries fire and smoke certification as part of the VGE1-FER1 series. These certifications support regulatory compliance in global facilities, reduce risk during audits, and help meet safety standards for life-safety systems.
Yes. The device operates from -40 °C to 100 °C, making it suitable for environments with wide temperature swings typical in industrial automation, machinery rooms, and outdoor installations. Its aluminium shell and protective finish maintain mechanical integrity across this range, minimizing performance degradation over time.
The connector uses a shell size of 20 with dimensions of 87.1 mm in length and 33 mm in both width and height. It weighs 45 g, offering a compact and lightweight solution for space-constrained panels and conduits. Those specs help with precise panel cutouts and routing plans during design and installation.
The aluminium shell provides a strong yet lightweight structure, improving durability in demanding environments. The black anodized plating enhances corrosion resistance and wear performance, extending service life in humid or wash-down facilities. Together, these features reduce maintenance costs and improve long-term reliability in industrial installations.
