IP68/69K sealing plus a plastic shell deliver reliable ingress protection in unmated and mated states. The rugged design minimizes dust, water, and oil ingress, reducing field faults and maintenance costs in outdoor equipment and mobile machinery. This has a direct impact on equipment uptime and service intervals in packaging lines, agricultural machinery, or construction gear. The 12-position layout with gold-plated solder cup contacts ensures low contact resistance, long-term corrosion resistance, and consistent signal integrity. The result is improved drive accuracy for sensors and actuators, and safer power delivery in robotics cells and automated conveyors. The 1/3 bayonet coupling enables fast mating and unmating, reducing maintenance time and avoiding cross-threading or misalignment. This is ideal for panels and field repairs where quick, reliable connections matter. Backshell options include a sealing gland and a cable gland backshell, providing strain relief and protection against water ingress. The connector orientation X and straight plug configuration simplify installation in tight spaces. Operating from -40 °C to 105 °C with a 4.5 A rating (UL) / 4 A (IEC) and 250 mating cycles, this connector supports demanding industrial environments and long service life. Delivered as a complete plug with connector orientation X, 12 contacts, and gold plating, this Eaton Souriau UTS6 series solution delivers proven reliability, regulatory compliance, and cost-saving installation, reducing spare part variety and stock levels.
