Eaton UTS6JC14E15SZ Plug - IP68/69K Waterproof
Part Number: UTS6JC14E15SZ
Quick Summary
Eaton UTS6JC14E15SZ Plug delivers rugged waterproof connectivity for harsh industrial environments. Customers wrestle with ingress, chemical exposure, and costly downtime when equipment seals fail. Its IP68/69K protection, UL 1977 and IEC 61984 compliances, and robust 15-contact solder cups help engineers meet reliability and safety targets. The Z-key orientation minimizes mis-mating in complex harnesses, while the sealing gland backshell ensures reliable ingress protection during field service. With 15 contacts and gold plating for corrosion resistance, it supports dependable signal integrity across rugged machines and outdoor installations. Engineers appreciate its wide operating temperature range, from -40 °C to 105 °C, and compatibility with 5 to 14 mm cable diameters. This translates to lower maintenance costs and faster time-to-value for automation projects.

Feature → Business Impact → ApplicationIP68/69K waterproof protection delivers reliable operation in wet, dusty, and wash-down environments, reducing ingress-related downtime and increasing equipment availability in harsh industrial settings. This directly supports maintenance schedules for outdoor equipment, food & beverage lines, and heavy machinery that demand robust protection without frequent redesigns.15-contact solder cup contacts with gold plating enhance signal integrity and corrosion resistance, enabling long-lasting connectivity in demanding installations. This reduces contact failures, lowers maintenance frequency, and improves data/diagnostic reliability for automated lines and robotic arms.1/3 bayonet coupling provides quick, secure mating with minimal torque, speeding up installation and field servicing. technicians benefit from faster harness changes and fewer mis-mates, improving project timelines in large-scale automation projects.Sealing gland backshell and straight plug orientation (Z) support straightforward installation and consistent sealing performance, even in tight or awkward enclosures. This simplifies field upgrades and retrofits in retrofit-heavy plants and mobile equipment fleets.Operating temperature range from -40 °C to 105 °C and cable diameter compatibility from 5 to 14 mm enable use across indoor, outdoor, and extreme-temperature environments. Engineers can standardize on a single connector for multiple applications, reducing inventory variety and procurement complexity.UL 1977, IEC 61984, CSA-C22.2 No.182.3 compliance, and RoHS exemption 6.c support regulatory alignment and risk reduction for global deployments. This helps procurement teams meet supplier qualification criteria and pass industrial compliance checks without redesigns.

FAQs
Install the straight plug with the Z-key orientation to ensure correct mating. Use the sealing gland backshell to maintain IP68 integrity, and verify cable diameter falls within 5 to 14 mm. Ensure 15-contact arrangement is fully seated to achieve optimal signal integrity and 250 mating cycle durability.
The connector supports 12 A rating per UL and 4 A per IEC, with test currents of 4 A (IEC) and 12 A (UL/CSA). Voltage ratings are 50 V (IEC) and 600 V (UL/CSA). These specs enable reliable operation on typical automation harnesses while meeting safety requirements.
Yes. It operates from -40 °C to 105 °C and is UV resistant with material resilience against mineral oil, acids, and fuels. The IP68 rating and sealing gland backshell further support reliable performance in outdoor and mobile equipment applications.
Key compliances include UL 1977, IEC 61984, CSA-C22.2 No.182.3, and RoHS exemption 6.c. IP68 protection and gold-plated contacts support reliability in regulated environments, while the 250 mating cycles indicate durable field use. These align with global procurement and safety criteria.
The 1/3 bayonet coupling enables quick, secure mating, while the sealing gland backshell ensures continuous ingress protection. Gold-plated solder cups provide corrosion resistance and stable contact performance over 250 mating cycles, reducing maintenance time and extending field life in demanding automation systems.
