IP68/69K rated waterproof design with a sealing gland backshell reduces ingress risk in wet, dusty environments. This robust protection minimizes downtime caused by moisture and corrosion, extending service intervals and lowering maintenance costs. It is well suited for outdoor equipment, heavy machinery, and industrial automation panels that endure wash-downs, vibrations, and temperature swings. Six gold-plated solder cup contacts in a socket (female) configuration deliver reliable signal and power transmission. The contact design supports low contact resistance and consistent performance over hundreds of mating cycles, promoting stable control signals and safer connectors in demanding conditions. This arrangement is ideal for machine controls, robotics interfaces, and field wiring where space is limited and reliability is essential. 1/3 bayonet coupling provides quick, secure mating with vibration resistance. Mating cycles reach about 250, giving long lifecycle in maintenance-heavy environments. This feature simplifies quick field reconnections for trending uptime improvements in conveyors, packaging lines, and mobile equipment. Operating from -40°C to 105°C and with voltage ratings up to 250 V CSA/UL ensure safe operation across cold starts and hot environments. The connector is designed for 6 A UL and 7 A IEC / 6 A CSA depending on standard, enabling compact, efficient power distribution in control cabinets and on-machine wiring. It is suitable for harsh industrial settings with demanding electrical requirements. Cable diameter range from 1.5 to 8 mm and a straight plug orientation (W keying) streamline installation with minimal tooling. The molded plastic shell keeps weight to 22 g and overall length at 63.2 mm, reducing harness stress and simplifying panel mounting. The backshell gland provides secure strain relief and long-term environmental resistance, enhancing overall system reliability.

FAQs
For maximizing protection, install the UTS6JC10E6SW with the sealing gland backshell and straight plug orientation (W keying). Ensure cables are within the 1.5 to 8 mm diameter range and use the supplied connector with appropriate strain relief. Verify mating alignment and secure the backshell to maintain IP68/69K integrity during wash-downs and vibration-rich operations.
The six gold-plated solder cup contacts provide reliable low-resistance connections for both control signals and lightweight power. This configuration supports stable actuations in automation panels, robotics interfaces, and field wiring, while maintaining compact form factor and consistent performance across up to 250 mating cycles.
Yes. The connector is designed to meet UL 1977, CSA-C22.2 No.182.3, and IEC 61984 standards, with RoHS considerations for reduced hazardous substances. This ensures safer operation in industrial environments and smoother integration with equipment built to widely adopted electrical safety and interoperability requirements.
Ideal for outdoor machinery, wash-down areas, mining and heavy equipment, and industrial automation panels, where moisture, dust, and vibration are persistent. The IP68/69K rating, sealing gland backshell, and bayonet coupling support reliable performance in demanding environments and long-term maintenance reduction.
By eliminating ingress through IP68/69K protection and reducing reworks from poor connections, the UTS6JC10E6SW lowers maintenance costs and unplanned downtime. Its rugged construction, long mating lifecycle, and lightweight design simplify installation, enabling faster commissioning and improved asset uptime in OEM and end-user environments.
