FAQs
Yes. SMS6P1 is a 6-contact crimp-contact plug from the SMS series. It is supplied as the plug without a backshell, so pair it with compatible SMS-series receptacles and, if needed, the appropriate mating hardware from Eaton. This ensures proper alignment, secure mating, and reliable signal integrity in harness assemblies.
SMS6P1 operates from -55 °C to 125 °C and features an IP30 ingress protection rating. These specifications support reliable performance in indoor industrial environments with dust exposure or limited moisture, making it suitable for panel-mounted wiring and equipment enclosures.
Yes. Its compact 32.9 mm length, 22.9 mm height, 18.6 mm width, and six-crimp contact layout fit tight spaces typical of packaging lines and control panels. The push-pull coupling speeds mating, while the IP30 rating and lightweight plastic shell contribute to lower harness mass and simplified field deployment.
SMS6P1 meets UL94 V0 flammability, REACH, and RoHS compliance. These certifications support safe, compliant use across industrial and automation applications and help simplify procurement for regulated environments.
The push-pull coupling enables faster mating and unmating, reducing maintenance and setup time. The compact, lightweight design lowers harness weight and improves route planning, while CRIMP termination provides reliable, repeatable connections. Together, these factors shorten project timelines and can lower total cost of ownership over the product lifecycle.
