FAQs
The VGE1VS201501L shares the same form factor and philosophy as the VGE1-FER1 family, featuring a straight backshell and a sealing gland. Its 20-position layout and pin (male) contacts ensure straightforward mating with compatible counterparts, while its aluminium shell and black anodized finish preserve mechanical integrity in space-constrained harnesses. For retrofit projects, confirm mating envelopes and gland dimensions to ensure seamless integration with existing VGE1-FER1 accessories.
Key specs include a length of 83.1 mm, width and height of 33 mm, weight of 90 g, a 20-position layout, and pin (male) contacts. The shell is aluminium with black anodized plating, and the backshell is straight with a sealing gland. Operating temperature ranges from -40 °C to 100 °C, and salt spray resistance is rated at 500 hours, supporting durability in challenging environments.
Yes. Its fire and smoke certification, UL94 V0 rating, RoHS and REACH compliance, and robust mechanical design make it suitable for aerospace, automotive, railway, and industrial automation harnesses. The high-density 20-position layout, lightweight aluminium shell, and seal integrity under harsh conditions align with industry standards for reliability, safety, and lifecycle performance in critical interconnects.
The VGE1VS201501L carries UL94 V0 fire ratings and RoHS/REACH compliance, along with fire and smoke certification. These certifications ensure material and construction meet stringent fire safety, environmental, and regulatory requirements. For engineers, this translates to safer equipment, easier regulatory approvals, and reduced risk in regulated industries such as machinery, transportation, and aerospace.
The model uses a sealing gland backshell and a corrosion-resistant aluminium shell with durable black anodized plating, improving environmental resistance and reducing maintenance intervals. Its robust mating interface and high-density 20-position layout support reliable, repeatable connections, minimizing downtime. Combined with fire and environmental certifications, this translates to lower total cost of ownership through longer service life and fewer field failures.
