Eaton VGE1TE220000 Bayonet Connector - Fire & Smoke
Part Number: VGE1TE220000
Quick Summary
VGE1TE220000 is a fire‑ and smoke‑certified bayonet connector for shielded cable assemblies used in harsh industrial environments. Engineers often struggle to achieve reliable EMI shielding while meeting stringent fire-safety codes in compact harnesses. This product aligns with UL94 V0 fire rating, RoHS, and REACH compliance to streamline certifications and reduce rework. By combining a shielded backshell with robust aluminium housing and a 90° orientation, it delivers easier installation, improved durability, and lower lifecycle costs for panel-mounted and machinery wiring in demanding facilities.

The straight shielded backshell with sealing gland (size 22) provides superior EMI shielding and environmental protection, which directly reduces noise-related faults and enhances signal integrity in industrial control panels. This translates to fewer field failures and faster commissioning, delivering measurable uptime gains in production lines. The 90° backshell angle supports compact harness routing, enabling cleaner cable runs in tight enclosures and easing panel integration during retrofit projects. The aluminium shell with black anodized plating delivers rugged durability and corrosion resistance, extending service life in harsh environments and reducing maintenance intervals. With a weight of 151 g and dimensions of 37 mm length, 79.9 mm height, and 104.9 mm width, installation is predictable and package design is simplified for space-constrained applications. The product also carries fire and smoke credentials (UL94 V0) and RoHS/REACH compliance, ensuring regulatory alignment for automotive, industrial, and machinery sectors and reducing compliance risk. Compatible with size 22 backshells and fitted with shielding, this connector pairs with common, shielded cables to optimize EMI performance and ease of integration into existing architectures, while meeting industry standards for environmental testing and service life.

FAQs
Install the straight shielded backshell with the sealing gland (size 22) onto the cable harness, align the VGE1TE220000 Catalog Number VGE1TE220000, and secure with the bayonet locking mechanism. Ensure shielding coverage is continuous and the 90° backshell angle is oriented to support neat routing within the enclosure, minimizing stress on conductors during assembly.
Key specs include a 37 mm length, 79.9 mm height, 104.9 mm width, and 151 g weight. Shell material is aluminium with black anodized plating. It is rated for -40 °C to 100 °C, features shielding, and offers UL94 V0 fire rating with RoHS and REACH compliance, plus 500 h salt spray resistance.
Yes. With aluminium shell and black anodized finish, shielded backshell, and a -40 to 100 °C operating range, it withstands aggressive conditions. Fire and smoke certification (UL94 V0) plus RoHS/REACH compliance further support reliable operation in harsh environments and regulatory adherence for machinery and panels.
The device carries UL94 V0 fire rating for flame retardancy, RoHS and REACH compliance for restricted substances, and fire/smoke certification. These certifications help you meet safety and environmental regulations, simplify qualification tests, and reduce time-to-operational readiness in regulated industries.
The shielding reduces EMI-related failures, while robust corrosion resistance and wide operating temperature improve reliability and mean time between failures. This leads to lower maintenance costs and extended service life, delivering a favorable total cost of ownership for control panels and machinery wiring projects.
