FAQs
The UTS6JC14E12SW is part of Eaton’s Souriau UTS family and uses the same 1/3 bayonet coupling and backshell style, ensuring straightforward mating with compatible housings and backshell components. It ships with a sealing gland backshell and supports 12-position layouts, so retrofits or new builds can align with current inventory and standard connector footprints without custom adapters.
This connector carries a 4.5 A current rating (UL) and 4 A (IEC) with a maximum 250 V rating, and operates from -40 °C to 105 °C. For high-vibration or washdown environments, these specs translate into reliable control and sensor performance, provided the mating surface and seals are properly installed and cable diameters remain within the 5–14 mm range.
Yes. The IP68-rated seal and unmated IP68/69K performance, combined with UV and chemical resistance in the Neoprene insert, make it suitable for outdoor installations, washdowns, and exposure to mineral oils or fuels. It’s especially advantageous for conveyors, robotic arms, and weather-exposed control cabinets in harsh industrial settings.
The part adheres to IEC 61984, UL 1977, and CSA-C22.2 No.182.3, with ROHS exemption 6.c. This helps streamline approvals for global deployments and ensures regulatory alignment across North American and European plants, reducing compliance risk in multi-site projects.
Mating cycles reach about 250, and the gold-plated solder contacts resist corrosion, preserving signal integrity over time. To maximize ROI, ensure proper cable diameter fitting, use the correct backshell with the sealing gland, and perform regular inspection for seal integrity and mating alignment. This minimizes field repairs and extends connector life in high-cycle or washdown environments.
