FAQs

Plan for a straight backshell with a 3–12 mm cable diameter range and a sealing gland back shell. Use the 1/3 bayonet coupling for quick mating, ensuring the mating surfaces are clean and aligned. The 66.7 mm length and 29.7 mm width help with panel routing, while the 10-pin layout fits standard control wiring schemes.
The connector is rated for 16 A IEC and 10 A UL, with a test current of 7 A CSA. It supports voltages up to 500 V (UL/CSA) and 300 V (IEC). The 10 gold-plated solder cup contacts provide reliable, corrosion-resistant connections for power and signal paths.
Yes. The UTS6JC12E10SZ is IP68 rated (unmated), part of the IP68/69K family, and features a sealing gland backshell and neoprene insert to withstand moisture, dust, and washdown processes typical in process automation and food/pharma applications.
The 1/3 bayonet coupling provides fast, tool-free mating and unmating, while the straight backshell simplifies field routing. These features reduce commissioning time and facilitate routine maintenance in automated lines and remote installations.
With a mating lifecycle of up to 250 cycles and gold-plated contacts, the UTS6JC12E10SZ offers durable electrical performance with low contact resistance drift. Combined with IP68/69K sealing, this results in lower maintenance costs and longer service intervals in challenging environments.
