FAQs
The UTS6FC14E7S ships with a conduit adapter and backshell designed for flexible conduit. Its 1/3 bayonet coupling and straight plug orientation enable quick mating and secure connection, while the backshell type supports easy cable routing. Plan for 7-contact layouts and ensure mating with standard Souriau 7-way sockets to maintain IP68 integrity during field installs.
This 7-position plug provides a current rating of 16 A IEC and 10 A UL, with test current also specified at 16 A IEC / 10 A UL and 7 A CSA. Contacts are gold-plated solder cups, Layout is 7 cavities, and the mating cycles are rated at 250. Voltage ratings include 500 V UL/CSA and 300 V IEC, suitable for mixed signaling and power needs.
Yes. The UTS6FC14E7S offers IP68 protection (unsure of ingress in unmated conditions) with UV, oil, mineral oil, basic and acid bath resistance, and a 500-hour salt spray tolerance. It operates from -40 °C to 105 °C, making it suitable for outdoor, wash-down, and harsh industrial applications requiring rugged reliability.
The connector complies with IEC 61984, UL 1977, and CSA-C22.2 No.182.3, with ROHS exemption 6.c noted. These certifications support regulatory acceptance in diverse markets and facilitate safer integration into machine controls and distributed systems.
Key factors include 250 mating cycles, gold-plated contacts for corrosion resistance, and an IP68/UV-resistant housing that withstands harsh environments. Combined with a robust backshell for conduit, quick mating, and reliable sealing, frequent maintenance is minimized, downtime is reduced, and long-term total cost of ownership improves for automated lines.
