IP68/69K protection and a sealing gland backshell deliver reliable ingress protection for washdown environments and outdoor installations, reducing maintenance cycles and cost. This six-position plug uses gold-plated solder cup contacts to improve signal integrity and corrosion resistance, boosting long-term reliability in sensors and actuators used in automation systems. The 1/3 bayonet coupling provides fast, tool-free mating and secure retention, minimizing mis-mating in dense panel layouts and under vibration. Cable compatibility spans 1.5 to 8 mm, with a Neoprene insert that accommodates a range of cable diameters while preserving seal integrity, enabling flexible field terminations. The unit tolerates -40 °C to 105 °C and broad environmental exposure, including oil and UV resistance, supporting continuous operation in demanding factory floors. With 250 mating cycles and a lightweight 22 g footprint, total lifecycle costs are reduced while maintaining performance across lifecycle stages. These specifications align with UL, CSA, and IEC standards, ensuring regulatory compliance alongside RoHS exemptions. The UTS plug's compact 63.2 mm length and 26.7 mm width/height enable easy integration into tight control cabinets and equipment enclosures, delivering dependable connectivity without sacrificing space.
