Straight shielded backshell with sealing gland and male grommet improves EMI containment and environmental sealing, reducing electromagnetic interference and moisture ingress. This directly lowers field failures and extends connector life in harsh installations such as outdoor control panels and industrial machinery enclosures. Aluminum shell with black anodized finish provides rugged mechanical integrity and corrosion resistance while keeping weight manageable, enabling reliable mounted assemblies in aerospace, rail, and heavy equipment harnesses. Operating temperature range from -40 °C to 100 °C and a 500-hour salt spray rating support performance in extreme climates, reducing maintenance frequency and downtime for outdoor or vehicle-mounted electronics. RoHS, REACH, and UL94 V0 fire/smoke certifications ensure compliance for safety-critical integrals, facilitating faster qualification of systems in aviation, rail, and process automation. The 20-position layout and 98.1 mm length deliver high-density cabling without compromising mating reliability, while the black anodized alumnium shell and straight backshell simplify field replacement and inventory management for integrators and OEMs.

FAQs
The VGE1TS201510L uses a 20-position layout and straight backshell designed for shielded inline harnesses. It pairs with Eaton Souriau VGE1-FER1 family assemblies and accepts common sealing glands and male grommets, enabling straightforward integration into control panels or machinery. Its aluminum shell with black anodize provides rugged mounting while maintaining EMI performance.
This connector operates from -40 °C to 100 °C, making it suitable for extreme environments. A salt spray rating of 500 hours indicates strong corrosion resistance, while RoHS and REACH compliance support environmental and regulatory expectations. Together, these specs ensure reliability in outdoor, automotive, and industrial automation installations.
Yes. The VGE1TS201510L carries Fire & Smoke certification and UL94 V0 flammability rating, along with RoHS and REACH compliance. This combination supports safety-critical applications in aerospace, rail, and process automation, reducing qualification time and helping meet stringent regulatory requirements for equipment intended to operate in fire-prone environments.
The straight backshell simplifies cabling runs and mating in tight or vertical enclosures, reducing bending strain and EMI leakage risks. It also streamlines field replacements and inventory management by aligning with standard harnesses and glands, which is especially valuable in compact control panels and dense equipment racks found in manufacturing and transportation applications.
Choosing VGE1TS201510L yields measurable ROI through longer service intervals, fewer field failures, and smoother installation workflows thanks to its robust shielding, sealing, and regulatory compliance. The combination of high-density layout, durable aluminum shell, and fire/smoke certification minimizes downtime and accelerates qualification cycles for new equipment, reducing total cost of ownership over the project lifecycle.
