IP68/69K sealing is designed to protect unmated connections against water and dust ingress, reducing field failure risk and extending equipment life in outdoor or underground environments. This translates to lower maintenance costs and fewer shutdowns in critical applications like outdoor machinery, packaging lines, and mobile equipment. The 18-contact, gold-plated solder cup layout enables reliable power and signal distribution with minimal resistance changes over time, improving overall system performance and repeatable sensor readings in demanding environments. The 1/3 bayonet coupling and straight plug orientation simplify installation and mating in tight panels, speeding assembly and reducing labor time during commissioning. Neoprene insert and backshell sealing gland enhance environmental resistance, while a plastic shell keeps weight manageable for portable equipment and modular systems. With 250 mating cycles, teams gain confidence in durability during field upgrades and routine maintenance. Operating temperature from -40 °C to 105 °C supports use in extreme climates, and compatibility with 5 A IEC and 4 A UL ratings ensures robust control and signaling in industrial automation. Overall, this series aligns with Souriau UTS standards, delivering reliable, field-ready connectivity for process and factory automation.
