FAQs
The VGE1TS32A1300M uses a 32‑position layout within the VGE1‑FER1 family, featuring a straight backshell and shielded design to maintain EMI integrity. It mates with compatible Souriau VGE1 connectors and backshells that share the same shell size (32) and contact arrangement, simplifying inventory and ensuring consistent performance across assemblies.
The VGE1TS32A1300M carries UL94 V0 flammability with fire and smoke certification, along with RoHS and REACH compliance. This reduces risk in safety-critical enclosures and helps meet regulatory requirements for electrical assemblies in industrial environments.
Yes. The connector operates from -40 °C to 100 °C, making it suitable for extreme ambient conditions found in manufacturing plants, outdoor installations, and process environments, while preserving contact integrity and shielding performance.
Plan for proper mating alignment to avoid cross‑mating issues, leverage the sealing gland for environmental protection, and ensure shielded routing to maximize EMI protection. The straight backshell simplifies cable routing and panel mounting, reducing installation time and potential misalignment.
The aluminum shell with black anodized plating provides corrosion resistance, and the 500‑hour salt spray rating indicates good durability in mildly corrosive environments. For longer life, ensure proper sealing and periodic inspection of mating interfaces and shielding integrity as part of routine preventive maintenance.
