Fire and smoke certified design with UL94 V0 provides a robust safety envelope for critical systems. This delivers reduced safety risk and compliance costs. Applications include industrial automation, machinery, aerospace, rail, and automotive environments where flame exposure is a concern and reliable data and power transmission must be maintained. The sealing gland backshell paired with a 90° orientation simplifies installation in tight spaces, improving panel density and sealing integrity. The result is faster assemblies and fewer callback visits during commissioning. The aluminium shell with black anodized plating offers superior mechanical durability and corrosion resistance, extending service life in hostile environments. Shell size 32 and the 52 mm depth support compact, modular designs for control cabinets, while the 320 g weight helps keep enclosure planning predictable. Operating temperature from -40 °C to 100 °C and a 500-hour salt spray rating ensure consistent performance in harsh industrial, marine, and rail applications.
