Fire and smoke certification is embedded in the VGE1-FER1 series, delivering UL94 V0 performance for safety-critical enclosures. Business impact: increased compliance confidence and reduced risk of fire-related downtime, especially in control panels and machine housings. Application: suitable for harsh industrial environments where rapid, latch-positive mating is essential. The aluminium shell with black anodized finish provides rugged durability and corrosion resistance. Business impact: longer service life and lower replacement costs in harsh coastal or industrial atmospheres. Application: aerospace, packaging, and process automation equipment that demand robust protection and lightweight construction. The straight backshell and sealing gland design simplify installation and improve sealing integrity. Business impact: faster assembly, fewer commissioning errors, and consistent environmental seals. Application: new-build lines and retrofits where timing and reliability matter. The VGE1VS240011 also offers precise 24 size compatibility and a 105.1 mm length, enabling predictable panel layouts and space management. Application: cabinet design and modular wiring harnesses that require compact footprints. The device’s operating temp range of -40 °C to 100 °C and 500 hour salt spray resistance translate to durable performance under vibration and exposure. Business impact: reduced maintenance cycles and steadier operation in extreme temperatures. Application: outdoor or industrial sites with fluctuating temperatures. Overall, this connector supports easier sourcing with a sealing gland backshell and aluminium shell for compatibility with Souriau VGE1-FER1 family products and established industrial wiring ecosystems.
