FAQs
The VGE1SS282100L is ideal for control panels and rugged enclosures in industrial automation. Its straight backshell and flexible conduit compatibility support clean, secure wiring harnesses in tight panel spaces, while the fire and smoke certification ensures compliance in environments with stringent safety requirements.
Key specs include a 28 layout and shell size, pin (Male) contacts, aluminium shell with black anodized plating, overall length of 88.9 mm and 46 mm width/height, weight 107 g, operating temperature range -40 °C to 100 °C, and 500-hour salt spray resistance. RoHS and REACH compliance are also supported.
UL94 V0 indicates flame retardant performance, meaning the material resists ignition and stops burning quickly. This reduces risk in fire scenarios, helps meet global safety standards, and simplifies regulatory approvals for installations in critical control panels and hazardous environments.
Yes. The backshell type is For Flexible Conduit with a Straight backshell angle, enabling straightforward routing and fast field assembly. This combination improves installation speed, reduces wiring errors, and supports rapid harness integration in machinery and electrical enclosures.
The bayonet mating design speeds assembly, reducing cycle time on production lines. Its durable aluminium shell, corrosion resistance, and RoHS/REACH compliance lower maintenance costs and replacement risk. Together, these factors contribute to lower total cost of ownership and improved uptime in high-volume automation environments.
