Eaton VGE1VS2214124L Bayonet Connector - Fire Certified
Part Number: VGE1VS2214124L
Quick Summary
VGE1VS2214124L is a fire and smoke certified bayonet connector for rugged electrical enclosures, delivering a secure, fast-mating interconnect where safety and reliability matter most. In real-world panel builds, engineers confront seals that must withstand high-temperature tests, connectors that mate consistently on crowded backplanes, and devices that meet stringent approval processes without slowing production. This VGE1-FER1 series solution combines a corrosion-resistant aluminium shell with a durable black anodized finish to endure washdown and outdoor exposure, while the straight gland backshell layout simplifies field assembly. For wiring and connectivity projects in industrial automation, it reduces commissioning time, minimizes maintenance intervals, and helps sustain compliant operations across control cabinets, robotics, and process equipment.

Feature → Business Impact → Application: The fire and smoke certified bayonet design delivers immediate safety compliance and reduces the need for extra protective components, enabling faster startup in critical control panels. This translates to lower risk of non-compliance penalties and a shorter time to production release across process automation deployments. Application: used in safety-critical machinery and panel assemblies where strict fire/smoke considerations apply. Feature → Business Impact → Application: An aluminium shell with a black anodized finish provides corrosion resistance and durability while maintaining a lighter weight for easier installation. This reduces handling effort, extends service life in washdown or outdoor environments, and lowers maintenance costs in packaging lines and material handling. Application: outdoor automation, chemical plants, and food-and-beverage processing lines. Feature → Business Impact → Application: A compact 52 mm length with a 37x37 mm footprint optimizes panel space, enabling tighter harness routing and faster retrofits in legacy cabinets. Application: retrofits and new builds with space-constrained enclosures. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Straight sealing gland backshell with layout 2214 simplifies gland entry and mating, cutting field service time and minimizing misalignment risk. Application: rapid installation and maintenance in multi-harness installations. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Bayonet coupling supports quick connect/disconnect without compromising seal integrity, boosting uptime and operator safety in high-temperature manufacturing environments.
