Eaton VGE1SS40A6000L Bayonet Connector - Fire & Smoke

Fire and smoke certification is a core feature of this connector, delivering safety compliance for enclosures where flame exposure is a concern. The business impact is lower risk of ignition at terminations and accelerated regulatory approvals. Application: straight conduit terminations in control panels and heavy machinery where flame exposure is a concern. Designed for compatibility with straight-back terminations and standard panel cutouts. It also integrates with standard test and inspection routines. Paragraph2: Aluminium shell with black anodized plating. Business impact: improves durability and corrosion resistance, lowering maintenance costs over the product life. Application: suited for outdoor or harsh industrial environments. This finish also resists chipping and maintains electrical integrity over time. Paragraph3: Backshell design tailored for Flexible Conduit and a straight backshell orientation; shell size 40; layout A60; male pin contacts. This alignment reduces installation misalignment and speeds field terminations. Application: ideal for automation cabinets and machinery with tight routing where reliable, quick-connect assemblies matter. The 40 shell size supports compact panel layouts and simplifies cable routing. Paragraph4: Operating temperature range -40 to 100 C. Business impact: accommodates wide ambient conditions, reducing the need for multiple part variants. Application: supports industrial automation in mixed climates, from cold starts to hot runs. This range also aligns with common engineering specs for industrial automation panels. Paragraph5: Salt spray exposure tolerance 500 hours. Business impact: proven corrosion resistance extends service life in harsh environments. Application: ideal for plants with humid or coastal air, or where cleansing cycles are frequent. Its 500 hour salt spray rating complements other environmental protections like elevated temperature handling. That helps ensure plug-and-play deployment across the plant. Paragraph6: RoHS, REACH and UL94 V0 certifications for global compliance. Business impact: simplifies supplier qualification and reduces risk in multi-region deployments. Application: supports regulated industries including machinery, packaging, and automation. This combination supports faster procurement cycles and supplier qualification.
