FAQs
This UTS plug uses a straight orientation with a 1/3 bayonet coupling, designed for quick, tool-assisted mating. It supports a backshell for flexible conduit and crimp contacts, with 10 cavities to match the application. Ensure you select the correct conduit adapter and verify the orientation keying W to maintain IP68 integrity during installation.
The connector carries 6 A IEC, 5 A UL, and 4 A CSA in test conditions, with a rated voltage of 250 V (CSA/UL) and 50 V (IEC). It supports up to 250 mating cycles and operates in a -40 to 105 °C range. These specs support reliable operation in industrial automation, machinery, and equipment exposed to transient loads.
Yes. It is IP68 rated (with IP68/69K protection) and built from UV-resistant polyamide with resistance to gasoline, oil, mineral oil, and basic/acid baths. Its environmental endurance and salt spray tolerance (500 hours) make it suitable for outdoor equipment, food processing lines, and marine-adjacent automation, where harsh cleaning and exposure are routine.
The UTS6FC1210PW complies with IEC 61984, UL 1977, and CSA-C22.2 No.182.3, supporting global wiring-device certification. For verification, refer to the product datasheet and the cited Eaton documentation; engage with Eaton support to confirm updates on compliance messaging and RoHS/REACH status for your region.
Mating cycles of 250 and robust environmental resistance reduce replacement frequency and downtime. Its conduit-ready backshell and compact footprint simplify installation in tight spaces, lowering labor costs. While contacts may be ordered separately, using crimped terminations ensures solid, repeatable connections, improving reliability and lowering maintenance overhead over the equipment lifecycle.
