IP68/69K sealing combined with a sealing gland backshell delivers rugged moisture protection, reducing ingress and corrosion for long-term reliability in outdoor automation and mobile equipment. This translates to fewer field service events and lower lifecycle costs, especially on conveyors, construction machines, and washdown environments. Six gold-plated solder cup contacts provide a low-resistance, corrosion-resistant connection, supporting reliable power and signal transfer for sensors and actuators in demanding industrial settings. The 1/3 bayonet coupling offers quick, secure mating with simple alignment, enabling fast field assembly and reduced downtime on installation or maintenance rounds. Cable diameter flexibility from 1.5 to 8 mm plus a compact 63.2 mm length simplifies harness design and panel routing, improving installation efficiency and inventory management. Operating from -40 to 105 C, this connector withstands extreme temperatures common in steel mills, outdoor automation, and automotive assembly lines. With 250 mating cycles, it supports frequent connect/disconnect cycles without compromising performance, vital for test rigs and mobile machinery. Compliance with UL 1977, IEC 61984 and ROHS exemption 6.c ensures global approvals, easing cross-border procurement and supplier qualification. Salt spray resistance up to 500 hours enhances durability in coastal or humid environments, reducing corrosion-related maintenance. The plastic shell keeps weight down while Neoprene insert material provides durable sealing, ensuring dependable performance in challenging environments while maintaining a compact footprint for tight installations.

FAQs
For field installs, ensure cable diameters are within 1.5 to 8 mm and use the sealing gland backshell to maintain IP68/69K integrity. The straight plug orientation and W-keying support correct alignment, while the 63.2 mm length fits compact equipment housings. Securely mate the connector to achieve the rated 250 mating cycles and minimize ingress paths.
Yes. The connector is designed to meet UL 1977 and IEC 61984 requirements, with a current rating of 6 A (UL) and 7 A (IEC), and a test voltage of up to 250 V (UL/CSA) or 50 V (IEC). This facilitates global approvals and ensures reliable performance in regulated applications.
Ideal for outdoor automation, mobile equipment, conveyors, and harsh-environment control panels. Its IP68/69K protection, salt spray resistance, and wide operating temperature range enable use in coastal, industrial washdown, and rugged manufacturing settings, where durability and reliable sealing are critical for uptime.
The UTS6JC10E98PW supports about 250 mating cycles, providing durability for frequent connect/disconnect scenarios such as test rigs or serviceable machinery. Plan maintenance around this interval to optimize spare parts inventory and minimize unexpected failures, while leveraging the sealing gland design to preserve integrity during each cycle.
Consider the 1/3 bayonet coupling for quick mating and the W orientation to ensure correct alignment in tight spaces. The backshell is sealing gland type, supporting a broad cable range (1.5–8 mm). The plastic shell keeps weight down, while Neoprene inserts enhance sealing, making it compatible with various Eaton Souriau UTS series assemblies and standard field wiring practices.
