Eaton UT0W01626PWH6 UTO IP68/69K Connector - Metal
Part Number: UT0W01626PWH6
Quick Summary
The Eaton UT0W01626PWH6 is a rugged metal IP68/69K connector for harsh industrial environments. Field technicians often contend with ingress, corrosion, and unreliable connections during aggressive washdowns or heavy vibration. This receptacle meets UL 1977 requirements and uses RoHS/REACH-compliant materials, while delivering IP68 protection and 69K salt-spray resistance for extended service life. With 26 crimp contacts and a 1/3 bayonet coupling, it offers reliable mating life and fast installation in control panels, machinery enclosures, and mobile equipment. Shielding further reduces EMI risks, and the square flange receptacle geometry simplifies mounting. Together, these features translate into reduced downtime, predictable maintenance windows, and lower total cost of ownership for demanding automation projects.

Sealed IP68/69K rating and 96-hour salt spray resistance prevent ingress and corrosion in washdown and offshore environments, increasing component life and reducing field maintenance. 26-contact, crimp-pin configuration supports compact control wiring while delivering reliable connectivity at 4 A and 250 V, improving energy efficiency and system reliability in automation cabinets and machine bays. The 1/3 bayonet coupling enables quick, vibration-resistant mating and unplugging, which shortens installation and service times in harsh environments. A shielded construction minimizes EMI in dense sensor networks and fieldbus systems, while nickel-plated zinc alloy housing provides rugged durability against shocks (50 g) and broad temperature exposure (-40 to 105 °C). The polyamide insert and aluminium nut balance lightweight handling with mechanical stiffness for long life in demanding applications. Compatible with Souriau UT0W components, the unit supports straightforward field upgrades and scalable automation installs.
