Eaton VGE1SS240010 Bayonet Connector - UL94 V0 Fire & Smoke
Part Number: VGE1SS240010
Quick Summary
Eaton VGE1SS240010 is a fire‑rated bayonet connector for straight conduit in harsh industrial enclosures. Manufacturers often struggle to maintain fire and smoke integrity while meeting tight space and weight constraints. The VGE1SS240010 line carries UL94 V0 flammability, RoHS and REACH compliance, and explicit fire & smoke certification, providing robust regulatory assurance. This combination reduces the need for extra shielding and simplifies documentation, saving time during audits. By combining a lightweight aluminium shell with black anodized plating and a straight backshell for flexible conduit, it delivers durable performance without sacrificing ease of installation. Use cases span factory automation, hazardous area cabinets, and equipment enclosures where trusted fire safety and connectivity are critical.

FAQs
Begin by selecting the VGE1SS240010 for a 24 shell size with a straight backshell designed for flexible conduit. Align the conduit and connector bayonet, insert until seated, and rotate to lock. Ensure the backshell remains secure to maintain strain relief. This design minimizes alignment challenges and speeds up field assembly while preserving fire‑rated integrity.
Critical specs include a 24 shell size, aluminium shell with black anodized plating, straight backshell, and a length of 105.1 mm with 40 mm width and height. Weight is 83 g. It operates from -40 °C to 100 °C, provides UL94 V0 flammability protection, and complies with RoHS and REACH, plus a 500 hour salt spray rating for durability.
Yes. The connector is rated for -40 to 100 °C, which covers low‑temperature starts and sustained high‑temperature operation in many industrial settings. Together with a corrosion‑resistant aluminium shell and 500 hour salt spray resistance, this makes it appropriate for demanding environments such as manufacturing floors, outdoor installations, and process plants.
UL94 V0 confirms excellent flame retardancy for plastic insulation and assemblies, reducing fire risk in critical enclosures. RoHS and REACH compliance ensure materials do not contain restricted substances and meet environmental standards. Together, these certifications simplify regulatory approvals, improve safety documentation, and support long‑term reliability in safety‑critical wiring and control systems.
The straight backshell and flexible conduit compatibility reduce install time and field adjustments, lowering labor costs. Lightweight aluminium with durable black anodized plating resists corrosion, reducing maintenance and replacement needs. Fire & smoke certification and RoHS/REACH compliance streamline approvals, lowering risk of non‑compliance and costly redesigns, delivering faster project turnover and greater total‑cost‑of‑ownership savings.
