IP68/IP69K protection protects against moisture, dust, and washdowns, reducing field failures and maintenance costs in outdoor enclosures and mobile equipment. Four female contacts in a compact 37 mm long, 41.3 mm high by 41.3 mm wide housing support efficient 4-wire circuits with space savings in automated systems. The 1/3 bayonet coupling enables quick, secure mating with minimal fatigue during repeated connections, while the straight plug and 3G1 layout improve alignment and reduce installation time. Operating temperatures from -40 to 105 °C ensure reliable performance across seasonal and high-heat environments, with UV-resistant polyamide shell handling long-term exposure. A 32 A IEC current rating (and 23 A UL) supports robust power/transmission needs, complemented by 250 mating cycles and 500-hour salt spray resistance for dependable lifecycle maintenance. Optional Last Mate First Break and ground cavity features simplify on-site servicing without disrupting surrounding circuits.

FAQs
The UTS6183G1S is supplied as a plug without backshell, and a connector accessory option is not delivered by default. For IP68/69K sealing and grounding, order backshells or accessory kits separately. Use crimp contacts compatible with the 4 female cavities, and ensure the mating socket is properly aligned with the 3G1 layout and 1/3 bayonet coupling for a secure connection.
Yes. The connector is rated for 32 A IEC and 23 A UL, with a test current of 32 A IEC. It supports 600 V UL / 300 V IEC in specified contexts and uses crimp contact delivery. For reliability, maintain proper cable gauge and crimps, ensure correct mating to the socket, and use the appropriate backshell to preserve IP68 sealing during installation.
The UTS6183G1S complies with IEC 61984, UL 1977, and CSA-C22.2 No.182.3. It carries IP68 protection, and the assembly is designed to meet safety and performance standards relevant to industrial automation, control panels, and harsh-environment equipment. Fire and smoke ratings are noted as part of environmental compliance in related documentation, with RoHS adherence typical for modern connectors.
The polyamide shell provides UV resistance and chemical compatibility, while the design resists gasoline and mineral oil exposure and acid/base baths. Salt spray endurance is rated at 500 hours, and environmental resistance includes vibration tolerance per IEC 60512-4 across 10–2000 Hz. These features support long service life in outdoor enclosures, washdowns, and industrial installations.
Typical applications include industrial automation panels, outdoor machinery, conveyors, and rugged control cabinets. Plan for a backshell and proper crimp contacts to maintain IP68/IP69K sealing, account for the 37 mm length and 41.3 mm width, and ensure alignment with the 3G1 layout. Factor in the 250 mating cycles and operating range from -40 to 105 °C to meet maintenance and lifecycle goals.
