IP68/69K sealing and environmental resistance provide reliable performance in moisture-prone and high-vibration settings. The UTS6JC1823P resists gasoline, mineral oils, acids, and basic baths, minimizing field failures and return trips. The 23-position layout delivers dense connectivity in compact housings, reducing harness length and simplifying routing on machines. This makes it ideal for robotics, CNCs, and industrial control panels where space is at a premium. Mating cycles of up to 250 ensure long service life under frequent connections, while the sealing gland back shell streamlines installation and maintenance. In rugged workshops, you gain predictable performance across full lifecycle. Operating temperatures from -40 °C to 105 °C enable stable operation across factories, outdoors, and mobile equipment. This temperature tolerance supports high-temperature equipment and cold environments without compromising contact integrity. 1/3 bayonet coupling provides quick mating and secure retention, reducing downtime during maintenance or reconfigurations. The design is delivered with connector options and standard crimp contacts, improving compatibility with existing harnesses. Ingress protection and material choices—polyamide insert, plastic shell—offer chemical resistance, UV stability, and low weight. These attributes help meet RoHS and REACH requirements while preserving signal integrity in harsh environments. Compliance and certifications are supported by IEC 61984, UL 1977, and CSA-C22.2 No.182.3, ensuring cross-border eligibility for control panels, machinery, and automation systems.

FAQs

The UTS6JC1823P uses crimp contacts and is supplied with a sealing gland backshell option, enabling straightforward integration with common harnesses. This compatibility reduces rework, speeds assembly, and supports consistent electrical performance across assemblies. When selecting crimp terminals, ensure the 23-position layout matches the contact type for reliable mating and long-term reliability in IP68/69K environments.
Plan for proper cable gland backshells to maintain IP68/69K integrity and use the straight plug orientation with 1/3 bayonet coupling for quick, tool-free mating. Verify operating temperature range (-40 °C to 105 °C) aligns with site conditions, and confirm mating cycles (up to 250) to forecast maintenance intervals and lifecycle costs accurately.
Yes. The connector is designed for environments with significant vibration, rated to operate reliably across a frequency range of 10 Hz to 2000 Hz. It supports up to 250 mating cycles, and its IP68 protection ensures moisture and dust ingress protection during prolonged operation, reducing unexpected failures in mobile equipment and rugged installations.
The UTS6JC1823P aligns with IEC 61984, UL 1977, and CSA-C22.2 No.182.3, covering broad regulatory requirements for connectors used in electrical and automation systems. These certifications support global qualification of assemblies, facilitate cross-border procurement, and help ensure safety, reliability, and traceability in regulated industries.
Benefits include reduced maintenance downtime due to robust sealing and high resistance to chemicals and UV exposure, longer service life from 250 mating cycles, and fewer field failures thanks to dependable IP68/69K protection. These factors translate to lower total cost of ownership, faster deployments, and improved uptime for critical automation equipment.
