Eaton UTS6JC14E15SX Plastic Waterproof IP68/69k Connector - IP68/69K
Part Number: UTS6JC14E15SX
Quick Summary
Eaton Souriau UTS series plastic waterproof IP68/69k connector is designed for 15‑position power and signal coupling in harsh environments. For engineers wrestling with ingress, damp harnesses, and field maintenance, this UTS plug‑and‑socket solution reduces downtime. Compliant with IEC 61984, UL 1977, and CSA-C22.2 No.182.3, it also supports RoHS exemptions for durable industrial use. In addition to IP68 sealing, its 15 gold-plated solder contacts and 1/3‑bayonet coupling deliver robust, field‑friendly performance. Designed for assembly in variable environmental conditions, the unit operates from -40 to 105 °C and withstands UV exposure and mineral oil contact. With a rugged 71.5 mm length and 34.6 mm width, the connector fits compact harnesses while delivering 12 A (UL) / 4 A (IEC) per channel. This combination translates to reduced rework, longer service life, and safer deployments.

FAQs
For proper installation, align the X orientation, use the provided backshell sealing gland, and connect the straight plug to the corresponding socket. Ensure the cable diameter is within 5 to 14 mm and secure the gland to maintain the IP68 rating. Verify 15-conductor layout matches your harness diagram and that the contacts are properly soldered for reliable electrical performance.
The UTS6JC14E15SX supports 12 A at UL and 4 A at IEC, with a voltage rating of 600 V (UL/CSA/IEC). It features 15 contacts with gold-plated solder cups for corrosion resistance and reliable signal/power transfer across the full operating temperature range.
Yes. It carries an IP68 rating and is UV resistant, with mineral oil and chemical resistance characteristics. Its RoHS exemption and durable plastics, combined with a sealing gland backshell, make it well suited for outdoor, washdown, and harsh industrial environments.
The unit complies with IEC 61984, UL 1977, CSA-C22.2 No.182.3, and RoHS exemptions. These certifications support compatibility across North American and European industrial systems and help ensure regulatory compliance for safety and environmental requirements.
Mating cycles are rated at 250, providing reliable reuse in automation setups. The gold-plated contacts, IP68 sealing, and robust housing reduce rework and maintenance costs while delivering long service life in demanding environments.
