FAQs
Install by pairing the straight plug with a compatible Souriau UTS receptacle, using the included nut and grommet backshell for a proper IP68 seal. Crimp 12 female contacts to the conductors, then mate with a matching connector while aligning with keying X. The assembly is designed for rapid field installation with minimal torque and reliable sealing.
The connector supports a current rating of 10 A (UL and IEC) and a test current of 10 A. It is rated up to 600 V in UL and CSA applications, with 63 V in IEC contexts. This makes it suitable for typical control circuits, sensors, and low- to mid-power devices in harsh environments.
Yes. It offers environmental resistance to mineral oil, basic/acid baths, gasoline, and UV exposure with no degradation after extended natural exposure. It also withstands vibrations per IEC 60512-4 from 10 to 2000 Hz, making it a dependable choice for machinery subject to mechanical stress and outdoor conditions.
Compliances include IEC 61984, CSA-C22.2 No.182.3, and UL 1977. These certifications support safe, regulatory-compliant installation in North American and international environments, simplify qualification for industrial projects, and help with supplier audits and documentation.
With 250 mating cycles and a robust polyamide insert, the UTS6GN1492SX provides predictable lifecycle performance and reduced replacement costs. The IP68/69K seal, oil/UV resistance, and a straightforward crimp method reduce downtime during maintenance and field servicing, delivering a favorable total cost of ownership in harsh environments.
