Feature to Business Impact to Application: The 32-position layout consolidates multiple signals into a single plug, reducing assembly complexity and harness length while improving system integrity for industrial automation projects. This translates to lower wiring errors, faster installation, and measurable maintenance savings on complex equipment used in outdoor environments. Feature to Business Impact to Application: IP68/69K waterproof rating protects against water, dust, and high-pressure washdowns, delivering uptime in manufacturing floors, outdoor equipment, and mobile machinery where exposure is common. This reduces unexpected downtime and extends service intervals in critical automation lines. Feature to Business Impact to Application: 1/3 bayonet coupling enables quick mating and unmating, speeding field servicing and diagnostics without tools, ideal for service teams supporting offshore, mining, or agricultural equipment. Feature to Business Impact to Application: Polyamide insert and plastic shell offer resistance to chemicals and UV exposure, improving longevity in corrosive or sun-heavy environments typical of outdoor control cabinets. Feature to Business Impact to Application: Operating range from -40 °C to 105 °C ensures reliable performance across harsh climates and equipment racks, boosting system resilience in automation, packaging, and rail applications. Feature to Business Impact to Application: 250 mating cycles indicate durability for frequent maintenance scenarios, supporting lifecycle cost reduction and predictable component replacement in critical control systems. Additionally, crimp contact delivery, straight plug configuration, and 32 V/250 V voltage ratings simplify procurement, installation, and integration with existing Eaton Souriau IP68 connectors in complex industrial networks.
