Eaton UTS618X2M3P Plug - IP68/69K Waterproof Connector

The UTS618X2M3P features a 1/3 bayonet coupling that speeds assembly and disassembly, reducing field service time while maintaining a secure connection in vibration-prone environments. This directly translates to lower maintenance costs and minimized downtime in conveyor or robotic applications. With five male crimp contacts housed in a plastic shell, the connector delivers compact, lightweight integration for space-constrained control panels, improving overall panel density and wiring efficiency. The device is rated for 44 A UL and 32 A IEC (600 V UL/CSA, 300 V IEC), enabling higher current operation for motor starters and accessory circuits without oversizing the harness. Its IP68 rating and UV-resistant, oil- and chemical-resistant structure provide confidence for outdoor and washdown environments, reducing replacement cycles and service calls. The insert material is polyamide with a plastic shell, offering chemical resistance and compatibility with crimp terminals. Optional first-mate/last-break and last-mate/first-break configurations provide flexibility for single-point or daisy-chained wiring. The connector ships without a backshell or plug accessory, allowing customers to tailor protection and cable management per application. With 37 mm depth, 41.3 mm height, and 41.3 mm width, the unit fits compact control enclosures while maintaining rugged sealing; mating cycles reach 250, supporting long-term automation deployments. The product is compliant with essential standards, and the design supports straightforward field installation, reducing commissioning time for equipment such as automated machines and material handling systems.
