Eaton UTS6JC12E8P Plug Connector - IP68/69K

The UTS6JC12E8P features IP68 protection and an integrated sealing gland backshell that resist moisture, dust, and oil exposure, delivering reliable connectivity in outdoor, marine, and off-road equipment. Business impact: fewer field failures, lower warranty costs, and reduced downtime. Application: industrial automation, mobile machinery, and outdoors equipment where sealing integrity is critical. The 8 gold-plated solder cup contacts on an 8-contact cavity ensure signal fidelity and long life, offering improved corrosion resistance and reduced contact resistance over time. Business impact: higher data integrity and extended service life in high-vibration environments. The 1/3 bayonet coupling provides fast, secure mating in confined spaces, saving maintenance time and minimizing rework. Application: field installations where rapid connect/disconnect is essential. The backshell is a sealing gland type and the insert material is neoprene, enabling reliable strain relief and moisture resistance. Business impact: compliant installations with consistent performance under wide temperature ranges and chemical exposure. The connector supports a broad operating temperature from -40 °C to 105 °C and a mating cycle rating of 250, ensuring durability in demanding settings. Application: aerospace, energy, and process automation where environmental resilience matters. With a shell size of 12 and a plastic shell, the design keeps weight low (30.5 g) while maintaining mechanical robustness. Business impact: lighter assemblies with easier handling and faster deployment. The product also withstands UV exposure, gasoline, mineral oil, and vibrational spectra from 10 to 2000 Hz, aligning with industry standards for rugged environments. Application: outdoors, ships, and heavy equipment requiring long-term environment resistance. Compliance with IEC 61984, UL 1977, CSA-C22.2 No.182.3, and ROHS exemption 6.c supports global regulatory alignment, reducing compliance risk in multi-region programs. Business impact: smoother procurement and faster time-to-market. The connector is compatible with Souriau UTS series ecosystems, enabling straightforward integration with existing harnesses and accessories. Application: retrofits and upgrades in legacy systems where consistency across connectors is essential.
