FAQs
To install the UTS6JC104S in a constrained panel, prepare a 4-pin plug-cable assembly, ensure the cable diameter is within 1.5 to 8 mm, and route through the backshell gland. Tighten the gland to seal against moisture ingress, align the mating faces, and engage the 1/3 bayonet coupling with a full twist until it click-locks. This minimizes ingress risk while preserving easy field maintenance.
The connector supports a current rating of 10 A UL and 13 A IEC, with a tested current of 13 A IEC and 10 A UL. Maximum operating voltage ratings include up to 500 V (UL/CSA) and 150 V (IEC). It is designed for four contacts, with a mating cycle life of about 250 cycles, suitable for intermittent to moderate cycling in automation and equipment control.
Yes. The UTS6JC104S is IP68-rated and IP69K-capable, with a sealing gland backshell and plastic housing designed to resist UV exposure, mineral oils, acids, and standard automotive-like fluids. Its operating temperature spans -40 to 105 C, and it withstands vibration per IEC standards, making it ideal for outdoor machinery, agricultural equipment, and mobile automation.
The UTS6JC104S complies with UL 1977, CSA-C22.2 No.182.3, and IEC 61984, ensuring safety, electrical integrity, and global compatibility. These certifications support regulatory adherence for machinery, reduce vendor risk during audits, and simplify cross-border procurement for system integrators building compliant automation solutions.
With 250 mating cycles and a robust IP68/69K sealing design, the UTS6JC104S minimizes ingress-related failures and reduces maintenance frequency for critical connections. The sealing gland backshell protects cables, while the four-pin layout supports reliable, straightforward replacements. This translates to lower downtime, predictable service windows, and improved total cost of ownership in industrial and outdoor automation projects.
