FAQs
The UTL7103G1S16AWG uses a jam nut receptacle in a 3G1 layout with four crimp contacts. Installation is accomplished by securing the receptacle in a panel cutout, tightening the jam nut to seal against ingress, and crimping the conductors to the four contacts. This design minimizes miswiring and ensures a secure, vibration-resistant connection suitable for automated equipment.
Key electrical specs include a current rating of 16 A (IEC and UL), test current of 16 A, and test voltage of 500 V IEC / 600 V UL. The layout supports four contacts in a compact 3G1 configuration, with a crimp contact type for reliable signal and power transmission in industrial machinery.
Yes. The connector features IP68 protection and robust environmental resistance, including UV stability and resistance to oils and mineral/chemical baths. This makes it well-suited for wash-down areas, outdoor installations, and applications requiring durable sealing against moisture and particulate intrusion.
The unit complies with UL 1977 and IEC 61984, ensuring compliance for industrial connectors and power/control interfaces. It also carries IP68 protection for ingress resistance and uses materials selected for RoHS-compliant, long-term reliability in harsh environments.
With 1,000 mating cycles and a robust jam-nut receptacle design, maintenance cycles are predictable and downtime is minimized. The combination of sealed IP68 hardware, durable materials, and simple field replacement reduces total cost of ownership by lowering failure rates and extending service intervals in automation lines.
