IP68/69K rated performance in unmated conditions protects against water, dust and aggressive washdown environments, reducing maintenance cycles and downtime in outdoor and harsh indoor applications. This translates to improved equipment availability and lower total cost of ownership for automation projects through robust sealing and long-term reliability. The connector’s 5-pin solder cup contacts with gold plating deliver low contact resistance and durable signal/power transfer in sensor and actuator networks, enhancing dependable device integration in factory floors and process lines. With a current rating of 12 A (UL) and 16 A (IEC), plus 12 A (CSA) test current and up to 600 V voltage rating, engineers can design panels with predictable performance for upper-level automation systems while maintaining compliance. Operating from -40 °C to 105 °C and featuring Neoprene insert material, UV resistance and salt spray endurance, the UTS614E5PX supports outdoor and washdown environments without sacrificing reliability or speed of installation. The 14 shell size and 5-position layout under a straight plug with 1/3 bayonet coupling simplify harness design and field terminations, enabling rapid assembly in panel and device interconnects. Note that plug accessories are not delivered and must be ordered separately, making it straightforward to tailor the coupling and protection to the specific installation while ensuring compatibility with the Souriau UTS series ecosystem. This combination of rugged performance and practical installation advantages addresses common objections about cost, complexity, and regulatory readiness in industrial automation projects.

FAQs
The UTS614E5PX is designed as part of the Souriau UTS family with a 5-position layout and 1/3 bayonet coupling, providing straightforward mating with compatible UTS plugs. It uses a straight plug configuration (Shell size 14) and X orientation, facilitating consistent harness routing and reduced risk of misalignment. For multi-cable assemblies, verify that accessory components are sourced separately to maintain the integrity of IP68 sealing and electrical performance.
This connector delivers a current rating of 12 A according to UL and 16 A per IEC, with a test current of 12 A (CSA) and a test voltage of 150 V (IEC) / 600 V (UL/CSA). The contact type is Solder Cup with gold plating for reliable conductivity. It supports up to 600 V and operates effectively between -40 °C and 105 °C, ensuring dependable performance in demanding environments.
It features IP68 protection (unmated), UV resistance, and resistance to gasoline, mineral oil, acids, and basic baths, alongside RoHS exemption 6.c. Compliance also extends to UL 1977 and IEC 61984, with CSA-C22.2 No.182.3 listings. These certifications help ensure safety, performance, and regulatory readiness in industrial automation, energy, and process control applications.
Yes. The UTS614E5PX is rated IP68/IP69K in unmated conditions, meaning it maintains sealing integrity during harsh washdown and outdoor exposure. The connector is designed with Neoprene insert material and a plastic shell to withstand UV exposure and chemical challenges, making it suitable for environments such as food processing, water treatment, and outdoor automation panels.
Plan for accessory components to be ordered separately since the connector accessory option is not delivered with the base unit. Use the straight plug option with 1/3 bayonet coupling and the X orientation for consistent harness routing. Ensure mating cycles of 250 are considered in lifecycle planning, and verify that RoHS/UL/IEC/CSA compliance requirements are met in your bill of materials for regulatory alignment.
