Eaton UTL6122G1W5S14AWG Power and Control Supply - IP68

IP68 protection and rugged materials make UTL6122G1W5S14AWG suitable for washdown areas, outdoor enclosures, and high-shock environments. The polyamide insert paired with a plastic shell delivers a lightweight yet durable interface that tolerates chemical exposure and UV without degradation. In practical terms, you reduce unplanned downtime due to ingress, which translates to higher line uptime and improved OEE in manufacturing lines. 16 A current rating in both UL and IEC contexts ensures the power and control circuits can drive motors, sensors, and actuators without overheating or voltage drop. The 500 V IEC / 600 V UL test voltages further back the connector's robustness in short-time overload scenarios and cross-border installations where different standards apply. In installation projects, engineers can standardize on a single 8-contact interface. Layout 2G1W5 with a ground cavity and first mate last break reduces wiring errors and simplifies harness design. The straight plug and push-pull coupling enable fast, tool-free mating and unmating, which is especially beneficial during commissioning and service. Compatibility with standard crimp contacts and the 39.4 mm length helps fit compact control panels without compromising accessibility. Mating cycles of 1000 demonstrate the connector's longevity in continuous operation, while the IP68 rating and salt spray resistance confirm reliability in humid, salty, or dusty environments. The 3x cavity #16 and 5x cavity #20 arrangement supports diverse power and signal runs in a single connector, simplifying cable management in complex automation systems. Operating temperature range of -40 to 105 C covers extreme factory floors and outdoor installations, enabling year-round operation with minimal climate controls. The product's RoHS and REACH compliance, UL 94 V0 rated shell material, and UV durability further reduce compliance risk and long-term maintenance costs. From a procurement perspective, the combination of IEC 61984 and UL 1977 certifications provides regulatory alignment for panels and modules across regions, while its overmold-only connector accessory option ensures a secure, panel-ready integration path for OEM assemblies.
