Eaton SMS9R1 Plastic Rectangular Connector - IP30

The SMS9R1 features a 9-position layout that consolidates nine circuits into a compact footprint, enabling efficient use of space in control panels and reducing harness complexity for downstream electrical design work. This translates to measurable efficiency gains during assembly and fewer wiring errors on the shop floor. The push-pull coupling provides rapid mating and unmating, accelerating field servicing and reducing downtime for critical machines. Its front-mount panel receptacle design simplifies integration with existing panel cutouts and aligns with standard Souriau SMS series aesthetics for compatibility across platforms. The plastic shell keeps costs and weight down while maintaining mechanical integrity in typical industrial environments; for applications demanding lighter, cost-effective connectivity, this is a compelling option. Operating from -55 °C to 125 °C, the device supports harsh temperature swings common in manufacturing plants, while RoHS, REACH, and UL94 V0 compliance ensure regulatory peace of mind and safer material choices in ongoing production. Although no backshell accessory is available, the robust crimp contact delivery supports reliable electrical performance with straightforward field-term operations, and its 9-cavity configuration ensures consistent performance across all channels in multi-line interfaces. For teams upgrading legacy wiring, its compatibility with panel-mount systems in Souriau SMS family ecosystems offers a clear migration path and long-term ROI.
