Eaton UTS6JC10E98SZ Connector - IP68/69K
Part Number: UTS6JC10E98SZ
Quick Summary
UTS6JC10E98SZ connector from Eaton Souriau provides IP68/69K waterproof sealing for harsh industrial environments. That sealing and rugged design addresses field challenges like ingress, vibration, and temperature swings that complicate maintenance. It carries IEC 61984 and UL 1977 approvals, plus RoHS exemption 6.c, with CSA-C22.2 in scope for broader North American compliance. Designed for industrial automation wiring harnesses and machinery, it also supports Z-key orientation and straight plug mating to simplify installation and reduce misconnection. In practice, this means longer mean time between failures, lower service costs, and safer, more reliable system integration for demanding applications.

IP68/69K sealing in unmated conditions combined with a sealing gland backshell minimizes water ingress and oil exposure, reducing field repairs and extending component life in outdoor equipment, conveyors, and mobile machinery. Six gold-plated solder contacts deliver reliable signal and power transfer, supporting up to 7 A at 50 V, which translates to robust performance for sensors, controllers, and small drive circuits without overloading wires or creating voltage drop. The 1/3 bayonet coupling with a straight plug and Z-key orientation streamlines mating, minimizes installation errors in tight panels, and accelerates field retrofits. Neoprene insert and plastic shell resist oils, fuels, UV exposure, and vibrations while operating from -40 °C to 105 °C, ensuring consistent connectivity across environments. Mating cycles of 250 indicate durable long-term use, and compatibility with the Souriau UTS ecosystem helps standardize harness design. Regulatory compliance with IEC 61984, UL 1977, RoHS exemption 6.c, and CSA-C22.2 supports procurement and audit readiness, while the backshell gland maintains IP integrity during assembly.

FAQs
The UTS6JC10E98SZ is part of the Eaton Souriau UTS series and uses a 6-contact, solder-cup configuration with a straight plug and Z-key orientation. It fits standard 6-pin harnesses within the Souriau ecosystem, supports cable diameters from 1.5 to 8 mm, and is designed to terminate with a sealing gland backshell for reliable IP68/69K sealing in industrial automation applications.
IP68/69K rating indicates immersion and high-level dust protection even when unmated, which greatly reduces ingress of water, dust, and contaminants. In practical terms, this means longer service intervals, fewer maintenance callbacks, and safer operation in outdoor, wet, or oily factory floor environments, conveyors, and mobile equipment.
Yes. The UTS6JC10E98SZ supports a 1/3 bayonet coupling with secure mating and a 250 mating cycle rating, plus rugged seals and gold-plated solder contacts. This combination provides stable electrical performance under vibrations from 10 to 2000 Hz, minimizing signal integrity loss and reducing rework in dynamic automation lines.
The connector carries IEC 61984 and UL 1977 compliances, RoHS exemption 6.c, and CSA-C22.2 No. 182.3 applicability. These certifications support global procurement, regulatory alignment, and safer sourcing for industrial automation projects, ensuring compatibility with international electrical and safety standards.
Installation benefits include a sealing gland backshell, straight plug mating, and Z-key orientation that minimizes misconnection and speeds harness assembly. Lifecycle advantages come from 250 mating cycles, oil/UV resistance, broad temperature tolerance (-40 to 105 C), and robust environmental sealing, delivering lower maintenance costs and increased uptime for automation equipment and conveyors.
