Feature → Business Impact → Application: Straight conduit adaptor design with a socket (female) contact streamlines field assembly and ensures a tight seal against dust, moisture, and combustion byproducts, reducing rework during panel or enclosure wiring. In harsh industrial environments, this geometry minimizes misalignment during mating and enhances reliability of critical control circuits in automation systems. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Aluminium shell with black anodized plating on a 40 shell size yields a rugged yet lightweight enclosure solution that resists corrosion in damp plant settings. The A35 layout provides standardized pin-out compatibility with Souriau VGE1-FER1 series harnesses, enabling faster harness routing and improved inventory control. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Fire & Smoke certification, UL94 V0, RoHS, and REACH demonstrate regulatory compliance, lowering audit risk and facilitating global deployments. The straight backshell for Flexible Conduit and socket contact design reduce installation steps in confined spaces and improve tendon relief. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Operating temperature range of -40 to 100 °C and 500-hour salt spray resistance indicate suitability for extreme environments, delivering predictable performance and extended service life. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Dimensions and weight—111.4 mm length, 63 mm height, 63 mm width, and 199 g—offer a compact, manageable footprint for crowded panel layouts without compromising strength or ease of handling.
