IP68/IP69K sealing and sealing gland backshell provide robust ingress protection in wet, dusty environments, which translates to fewer field failures and lower maintenance costs in outdoor equipment and machinery. This 10‑cavity plug leverages a polyamide insert and plastic shell for chemical and UV resistance, delivering long service life in industrial settings and reducing replacement cycles. The 66.7 mm length and 29.7 mm width/height enable compact mounting in tight enclosures, while a 12 mm maximum cable diameter support and 3 mm minimum allow flexible cable sizing across control and sensor networks. With 250 mating cycles and 5 A UL / 6 A IEC current ratings (250 V), the connector balances reliability with energy efficiency for low-power automation tasks. Field compatibility is enhanced by the 1/3 bayonet coupling and straight plug geometry, simplifying installation and rework in service environments. Weight is kept at 35.4 g to minimize added load on rotating machinery and weight-sensitive panels. The option to deliver the connector pre-assembled reduces on-site wiring time and accelerates deployment in production lines and outdoor installations.

FAQs
Begin by selecting a cable diameter within the 3–12 mm range and prepare the conductors for crimp contact. Fit the backshell sealing gland to the cable, then insert the crimp contacts into the 10‑position shell according to the mating layout. Attach the straight plug and tighten the gland to achieve IP68 sealing. Finally, mate with the corresponding socket and perform a continuity test to verify integrity.
Yes. The connector achieves IP68/IP69K protection, UV resistance, and chemical resistance, making it suitable for outdoor deployments, wash-down areas, and challenging industrial environments. Its polyamide insert and plastic shell are designed to withstand exposure to oil, basic baths, and environmental stress while maintaining electrical performance.
The UTS6JC1210S complies with CSA-C22.2 No.182.3, IEC 61984, and UL 1977, ensuring electrical safety, interoperability, and regulatory alignment for diverse markets. This certification set supports reliability claims in systems requiring formal compliance, documentation, and supplier qualification.
Key specs include a 5 A UL / 6 A IEC current rating, 250 V test voltage, 10 contacts, 66.7 mm length, 29.7 mm width, and 29.7 mm height. The connector supports 250 mating cycles and a operating temperature range from -40 °C to 105 °C, making it suitable for transient loads and wide ambient conditions in automation panels.
The connector uses a 1/3 Bayonet coupling for quick mating and reliable retention, along with a sealing gland back shell that simplifies sealing and strain relief. With 10‑position crimp contacts and field-ready assembly, technicians save time during initial wiring and future maintenance, reducing downtime and total cost of ownership in production lines and equipment fleets.
