Feature → Business Impact → Application: IP68/69k protection with a sealing gland protects against water, dust, and oils, reducing uptime losses and extending service intervals in outdoor machines and mobile equipment. This means lower maintenance costs and higher performance in demanding environments. Feature → 15 contacts with solder cups and gold plating offers low contact resistance and corrosion resistance, ensuring stable signal and power delivery in energised circuits across automation panels and remote installations. Feature → 1/3 bayonet coupling delivers quick, secure mating and reliable retention, enabling faster harness assembly on production lines and easier field repair. Feature → Operating range −40 °C to 105 °C supports equipment operating across temperature extremes, improving reliability for both refrigerated controls and high-heat environments. Feature → Mating cycles of 250 and a backshell with sealing gland enhance longevity and protect against ingress during frequent connections, reducing replacement costs and downtime. Feature → Cable diameter range 5–14 mm provides flexibility for a variety of field cables, simplifying inventory and installation planning. Feature → 71.5 mm length, 34.4 mm height, and 34.6 mm width yield a compact footprint ideal for densely packed panels while maintaining robust protection.

FAQs
The UTS6JC14E15SY uses a straight plug with a backshell and sealing gland designed for quick, secure mating. Ensure the cable diameter falls within 5 to 14 mm, insert the cable through the sealing gland, align the 15 pins, and mate using the 1/3 bayonet coupling until it clicks. Verify polarity and torque requirements, then test continuity to confirm a watertight seal.
This connector is compliant with UL 1977 and IEC 61984, with CSA-C22.2 No.182.3 certification where applicable, and RoHS exemptions noted by the manufacturer. It also carries an IP68 rating for immersion protection and is designed to perform across a temperature range of −40 °C to 105 °C, making it suitable for outdoor and harsh industrial environments.
Yes. The IP68/69k rating provides robust ingress protection against water, dust, and oils, while the UV-resistant plastic housing maintains integrity over time. Its 15-contact layout with gold-plated solder cups supports reliable power and signal transfer, ideal for outdoor sensors, controllers, and mobile machinery in industrial automation.
Key reliability drivers include gold-plated contacts for corrosion resistance, a neoprene insert, and a sealing gland within a plastic shell, all contributing to low contact resistance and long-term sealing. The 1/3 bayonet coupling ensures secure mating, while a 71.5 mm length and compact footprint fit tight spaces without compromising protection or performance.
The connector is part of the Souriau UTS series and uses a straight plug with a Y keying option, delivered with the connector as standard. It supports 15 contacts, 14 cavities plus a dedicated cavity, and a backshell with cable gland, enabling seamless cross-compatibility with UTS harnesses and system-level cable assemblies in industrial automation projects.
