Waterproof, drop-in reliability → Reduces ingress risk and downtime in washdown environments, enabling continuous operation of conveyors and outdoor equipment. The IP68/69K rating paired with a sealing gland backshell ensures robust sealing even under high-pressure washdowns. This translates to lower maintenance costs and longer service intervals in harsh facilities. 15 gold-plated solder cup contacts → Delivers low contact resistance, high current integrity, and stable performance under vibration, improving control panel reliability and sensor connectivity in automated lines. The 1/3 bayonet coupling and straight plug design → Enables quick, repeatable mating with minimal tool requirements, speeding harness assembly and field servicing for robotics and packaging lines. Mating cycles rated at 250 → Supports long service life and predictable replacement planning, reducing unexpected downtime. Neoprene insert and plastic shell → Combines durability with resistance to oils, fuels, and UV exposure for outdoor installations, decreasing replacement frequency. Cable diameter range 5–14 mm → Provides flexibility to accommodate a wide variety of field cables without rework, enhancing deployment speed in retrofits and new builds. Layout of 15 positions and Y orientation → Offers clear harness organization and ease of routing in compact panels, optimizing space and wiring density. 12 A UL / 4 A IEC / 12 A CSA ratings and 50 V IEC / 600 V UL test voltage → Confirms compatibility with common industrial power and control circuits while ensuring compliance with regional standards, reducing engineering validation time. Salt spray resistance (500 hours) and temperature range -40 to 105 °C → Supports operation across extreme environments, from cold starts to high-temperature washdowns, ensuring reliability in automotive, marine, and process industries.

FAQs
The connector is a straight plug with a Sealing Gland backshell and a 5–14 mm cable diameter range. It uses a 1/3 bayonet coupling for quick mating, and the Y orientation keeps wiring organized. Plan for a 71.5 mm length and 34.4 mm height as you design panel cutouts to ensure clearance and ease of access during assembly.
Key ratings include 12 A current at UL, 4 A at IEC, and 12 A at CSA, with test voltages of 50 V IEC and 600 V CSA/UL. The 15-pin configuration uses gold-plated solder cups for reliable contacts under vibration, with a mating cycle life of approximately 250.
Yes. With IP68 sealing and resistance to oil, mineral oil, and UV exposure, the UTS6JC14E15PY is designed for equipment exposed to washdowns, outdoor conditions, and challenging chemical environments, reducing ingress-related failures over time.
The connector complies with UL 1977, IEC 61984, and CSA-C22.2 No. 182.3, plus RoHS exemption 6.c. These certifications support regulatory compliance in North America and Europe and help streamline supplier qualification and documentation.
With 250 mating cycles, a robust IP68/69K rating, and durable gold-plated contacts, maintenance intervals are longer and downtime is reduced. Coupled with easier installation and reliable performance in harsh environments, the total cost of ownership improves for automation projects and machinery fleets.
