Shell size 18 and a wide cable diameter range of 7 mm to 12 mm give you broad wiring compatibility, reducing the need for adapters and simplifying stock management. The result is shorter installation times, lower labor costs, and fewer field-termination issues in control panels or machine enclosures. The included plastic cable gland enables clean, repeatable terminations, supporting faster commissioning and easier maintenance in busy production lines. The combination of metal and plastic housing delivers a balance of mechanical strength and versatility, enabling use in environments with vibration, mild contamination, and frequent plug/unplug cycles, while maintaining mating integrity over the life of the installation. Regulatory compliance is baked in: RoHS and REACH reduce your supply-chain risk, and UL94 V0 ensures flame-retardant performance for safety-critical installations. UTG series compatibility means you can scale or retrofit within an established Souriau ecosystem, preserving design continuity and spare-part commonality. Procurement and integration benefit from clear cataloging (UTG18ST) and a streamlined installation workflow, minimizing on-site variability and accelerating time-to-operate for automation projects.

FAQs
To install UTG18ST, align the mating interface with compatible UTG series components and prepare the cable entry using the included plastic gland. Ensure the cable diameter falls within 7 to 12 mm and that the gland seats properly to maintain a seal. Follow Eaton’s recommended torque and mating guidelines to maximize lifecycle performance in harsh environments.
Key specifications include a shell size of 18, a cable diameter range of 7 to 12 mm, and a plastic gland designed for UTG Series size 18. The housing combines metal and plastic materials for durability, and the product complies with REACH, RoHS, and UL94 V0 flammability standards for safe and compliant operation in industrial settings.
UTG18ST is designed for rugged industrial environments, offering robust mechanical support and a reliable seal. It carries UL94 V0 flame-retardancy and RoHS/REACH compliance, which support safety and regulatory needs. Note that the data does not specify an IP rating, so for outdoor or washdown conditions, ensure enclosure protection aligns with your system requirements.
Yes. UTG18ST is part of the UTG Souriau family and is designed for compatibility with other UTG-series connectors. Its shell size and gland configuration align with UTG mating interfaces, enabling seamless integration into existing panels, machines, and robotic deployments without requiring adapters.
The UTG18ST delivers measurable ROI through faster installation thanks to the included gland and straightforward cable entry, improved reliability from a robust metal/plastic housing, and regulatory peace of mind via RoHS, REACH, and UL94 V0. In high-cycle automation, this translates to reduced downtime, lower maintenance costs, and safer, more compliant equipment.
