Eaton UTS6JC1412S Plug - IP68/69K Waterproof Connector

IP68/IP69K protection with a sealing gland backshell provides superior ingress protection in washdown and outdoor environments, reducing maintenance downtime and extending equipment life. This translates to lower total cost of ownership and higher uptime in harsh production lines and mobile machinery. The 12‑cavity layout consolidates wiring into a compact footprint, cutting harness complexity and enabling quicker diagnostics and servicing in automation panels and sensor arrays. The 1/3 bayonet coupling enables rapid mating and unmating, especially in constrained or hard-to-reach installations, improving serviceability on crowded machines. Operating temperature range from -40 to 105 °C and UV resistance ensure reliable operation across seasonal outdoor exposure and high-temperature processes, reducing failure risk in unmanned or remote sites. Compliance to IEC 61984, UL 1977, and CSA‑C22.2 No.182.3 ensures safety and interchangeability across global supply chains, easing design validation and supplier qualification. The plastic shell with polyamide insert keeps weight low while maintaining toughness, supporting portable equipment and robotics where payload and handling matter. Cable diameter compatibility from 5 to 14 mm provides flexibility to procure standard cables without changing glands, aiding bulk purchasing and reducing spare parts variety. With 250 mating cycles, the UTS6JC1412S balances durability with cost, delivering predictable performance for routine maintenance cycles. The straight plug orientation simplifies routing in tight enclosures, while the backshell backgland design enhances sealing, decreasing the likelihood of moisture ingress during field service. The connector is designed for crimp contacts, enabling fast, reliable terminations and consistent mechanical integrity across wiring harnesses in complex equipment.
