IP68/IP69K waterproof design with a straight plug and 1/3 bayonet coupling delivers reliable sealing and quick mating, reducing downtime in washdown and outdoor installations. The 10-position layout supports compact, cost-effective wiring for sensors and actuators, while a 6 A IEC current rating ensures safe power delivery without oversizing. With 250 mating cycles, the connector provides durable, repeatable connections in high-cycle applications, cutting maintenance costs over the component life. Operating from -40 °C to 105 °C, it performs reliably across extreme climates, and its polyamide insert and plastic shell resist UV exposure, oils, and common chemicals. The backshell for flexible conduit simplifies field routing and sealing, improving install time and long-term integrity. Salt spray resistance (500 hours) and RoHS/UL94 V0 compliance further support long-term compliance and environmental responsibility.

FAQs
To install, select the Backshell type For Flexible Conduit and align the Straight Plug with the Socket (Female). Use the 1/3 Bayonet coupling to mate quickly, ensuring the seal is seated and the conduit is properly secured. The orientation is W, and mating should complete with a positive click. After mating, verify the 10-contact integrity with a simple continuity check and confirm the assembly remains IP68 sealed in the intended environment.
The UTS6FC1210SW is rated for 6 A IEC and 5 A UL/CSA with a test current of 6 A IEC and test voltage up to 50 V IEC / 250 V CSA/UL. It operates effectively from -40 °C to 105 °C, providing reliable performance across extreme environmental conditions while maintaining safety and compliance for industrial automation.
Yes. The connector features IP68 protection suitable for immersion and washdown scenarios, plus resistance to salt spray for up to 500 hours. It is also UV resistant and designed to withstand exposure to oil, mineral oil, and basic baths, making it well-suited for outdoor automation, water treatment, and harsh industrial environments.
The UTS6FC1210SW aligns with UL 1977, IEC 61984, and CSA-C22.2 No. 182.3 standards, validating electrical safety, intermateability, and compatibility with North American and international requirements. For precise compliance details, consult the product datasheet and contact us for the latest certification scope applicable to your region.
The 1/3 bayonet coupling enables quick, secure mating and demating, reducing cycle times and wear compared to screw-based fittings. It supports reliable sealing in wet environments, minimizes misalignment risk during installation, and facilitates faster replacement or field upgrades, which translates into higher uptime and lower maintenance costs in automation lines and outdoor equipment.
