IP68/69K sealing and a robust plastic enclosure safeguard critical electronics from water, dust, and chemical exposure, reducing downtime in outdoor or wash-down environments. The UTS6GN128SW uses a polyamide insert inside a durable shell to maintain electrical performance during temperature swings and vibration. This translates into longer service intervals, lower repair costs, and predictable reliability for mining, agriculture, and food packaging lines. Mating is fast and reliable thanks to the 1/3 bayonet coupling and straight backshell, which speeds field assembly and minimizes misalignment. With eight crimp contacts configured as a socket, you get stable signal and power paths for sensors and actuators while keeping the harness compact and easy to route through tight panels. This also simplifies orientation during harness assembly. Regulatory compliance is supported by IEC 61984, UL 1977, and CSA-C22.2 No.182.3, easing procurement and system certification. The IP68 rating paired with a 500 V test voltage and 10 A current rating ensures safe operation under immersion and in harsh electrical environments. Environmental performance covers UV resistance with no degradation after five years in outdoor exposure, mineral oil and gasoline resistance, and a 500-hour salt spray rating. These attributes help meet rigorous industry standards for outdoor equipment, marine applications, and heavy automation. Physical specs support easy integration: 32.3 mm length, 29.7 mm width, 29.7 mm height, and a light 24.6 g weight. The connector is designed for quick compatibility with existing Souriau UTS components, and optional features such as first mate last break let teams tailor harnessing without rewiring. Overall, the UTS6GN128SW plug delivers a reliable, compliant, and install-friendly solution that reduces maintenance costs while improving uptime in demanding industrial settings.
