Eaton UTS6JC10E98S Plastic Waterproof Connector - IP68/69K

IP68/IP69K sealing and oil/UV resistance deliver reliable operation in outdoor machinery and rugged automation environments, reducing field failures and downtime; enables a longer service life and lower total cost of ownership in machine build and retrofit projects. 6 gold-plated solder cup contacts provide stable, corrosion-resistant connectivity with low contact resistance, improving signal integrity and power delivery for control panels and motor drives; supports compact, space-constrained installations where performance cannot be compromised. 1/3 Bayonet coupling offers quick mating and secure retention, accelerating assembly and maintenance while minimizing tool requirements and misalignment risk in harsh workshops or on-site installations. The neoprene insert within a plastic shell, paired with a sealing gland backshell, ensures moisture exclusion and vibration resilience for high-duty automation lines. Cable diameter range from 1.5 to 8 mm accommodates common field wiring while maintaining seal integrity and strain relief. Operating from -40 °C to 105 °C and rated for up to 7 A IEC (6 A UL), the connector supports a broad temperature range and equipment variety, making it suitable for robotics, conveyors, and heavy machinery. With a mating life of around 250 cycles, maintenance planning is predictable and downtime is minimized. RoHS exemption 6.c, IEC 61984, UL 1977, and CSA-C22.2 No.182.3 certifications provide clear compliance pathways for industrial automation, medical equipment adjacent environments, and safety-conscious installations. The plug config and straight orientation support straightforward panel mounting and easy integration with existing Souriau UTS components, reducing engineering risk and part proliferation.
