IP68/69K protection and sealing gland provide ingress protection against water, dust, and oil, reducing unplanned downtime and extending equipment life in outdoor, washdown, and oily environments. This level of protection translates to lower maintenance costs and greater system uptime in waste-water treatment, food & beverage processing, and outdoor robotics applications. 8-contact socket with crimp contacts delivers a high-density connection for compact equipment housings, enabling smaller panel layouts and faster assembly while maintaining reliable signal and power transfer. The 1/3 bayonet coupling simplifies mating and disconnection, improving field service speed and reducing training time for technicians working on conveyor systems and mobile machinery. 250 mating cycles and a durable polyamide insert ensure long-term reliability in vibration-intensive applications common to material handling and automation lines. Operating from -40 °C to 105 °C, UV resistant and oil/acid resistant materials provide resilience in sunlit outdoor installations and harsh manufacturing floors, while RoHS REACH compliance supports sustainability and regulatory requirements. Cable diameter range of 3 to 12 mm offers installation flexibility for various harnesses, enabling faster start-ups and standardized procurement across projects. The plug’s straight backshell and sealing gland design simplify maintenance and replacement, while compatibility with the Souriau UTS series ecosystem ensures easy integration with existing equipment. The 8-contact configuration supports scalable I/O and motor/control circuits, helping maintain efficiency as automation needs grow and system architectures evolve. Overall, the UTS6GJC128SW delivers dependable, certified connectivity with clear value in uptime, ease of installation, and regulatory compliance for industrial automation projects.
