Feature: IP68/69K waterproof rating and 1/3 bayonet coupling provide a proven seal in challenging environments. Business Impact: This robust sealing reduces leakage-driven downtime and extends connector life in washdown or dusty industrial settings. Application: Use in outdoor machinery, construction equipment, and rugged automation where reliable ingress protection is essential. The plastic shell also resists UV and chemical exposure to support longer service intervals. Feature: Four‑position plug with polyamide insert and 4‑contact layout (Shell size 18) delivers compact power and signal paths. Business Impact: Supports up to 32A IEC and 23A UL, enabling high current for controllers and sensors without extra connectors, simplifying harnessing and inventory. Application: Ideal for motor control cables, PLC I/O harnesses, and sensor networks in automation cabinets. This design reduces installation time and training needs for technicians. Feature: Ground cavity layout with optional Last Mate First Break capability. Business Impact: simplifies maintenance and servicing in the field, reducing downtime during connector replacement. Application: advantageous in modular systems and machine skids where quick, secure field servicing is critical. The 1/3 Bayonet coupling enhances vibration resistance and mating reliability across repeated cycles. Feature: Operating temperature range -40 °C to 105 °C and UV/oil/chemical resistance. Business Impact: maintains performance in extreme climates and oily production floors, cutting warranty costs and unexpected failures. Application: outdoor enclosures, mining equipment, offshore platforms, and agricultural machinery. The connector withstands washdowns and sustained exposure without degradation. Feature: IEC 61984, UL 1977, CSA-C22.2 No.182.3 compliance plus RoHS/REACH. Business Impact: regulatory readiness accelerates product certification and market access, reducing time-to-revenue. Application: equipment in North America and Europe that requires recognized safety and environmental standards. With up to 250 mating cycles and a compact footprint, it supports durable, scalable installations.

FAQs
The UTS6183G1P uses a four‑contact crimp configuration within a polyamide insert and a ground cavity layout, designed to mate with common 4‑pin crimp terminals. Its 1/3 bayonet coupling provides secure engagement, while the option for Last Mate First Break simplifies maintenance access. This combination supports consistent electrical performance and straightforward field servicing in automation panels.
Key specs include a current rating up to 32 A IEC and 23 A UL, test currents consistent with IEC/UL/CSA standards, and voltage ratings up to 600 V (CSA/UL) or 300 V (IEC). Operating temperature ranges from -40 °C to 105 °C, with IP68 sealing. The connector is designed for 4 contacts and robust mating cycles of about 250.
Yes. It features IP68 sealing (IP68) for immersion protection, UV and chemical resistance, and compliance with IEC 61984, UL 1977, and CSA-C22.2 No.182.3, plus RoHS/REACH. These certifications reassure customers in North America and Europe, enabling safer deployment in outdoor, industrial, and marine-adjacent applications without additional certifications.
Plan for the straight plug with a 37 mm length and 41.3 mm footprint (shell size 18). Ensure mounting aligns with the N orientation, and factor in the ground cavity layout for reliable mating. If you require easier maintenance, consider the optional Last Mate First Break capability and note that some connector accessories are ordered separately.
The UTS6183G1P offers up to 250 mating cycles, rugged IP protection, and a compact form factor, all of which reduce downtime and replacement costs. Its high IEC current rating supports fewer connectors in power runs, lowering harness complexity and inventory. The result is improved equipment uptime, faster maintenance cycles, and predictable lifecycle costs.
