32-position layout and 1/3 bayonet coupling enable quick, reliable mating even in vibration-prone environments. The straight plug orientation simplifies cable routing and minimizes misalignment during assembly, reducing field rework and field faults. This configuration is ideal for control panels, robotics modules, and mobile equipment where compact harnessing is essential. Sealing gland backshell paired with IP68 protection ensures water and dust ingress is prevented across washdowns and harsh conditions. The robust insert material and gasketed interface resist chemical exposure and temperature cycling, translating into fewer maintenance events and lower warranty risk in manufacturing lines, outdoor stations, and industrial vehicles. Operating temperature ranges from -40 °C to 105 °C, with UV resistance and a 500-hour salt spray rating, providing confidence in outdoor and chemically demanding environments. The combination of environmental resistance and 250 mating cycles supports long service life in demanding automation networks, from harsh weather enclosures to rugged robotic cells. Electrical performance aligns with typical automation loads: 5 A maximum current per contact (UL) and 4 A (IEC), with test voltage up to 32 V (IEC) or 250 V (CSA/UL). This makes it suitable for sensors, actuators, and control circuits while preserving signal integrity and safety margins in low-power automation loops. Compatibility and installation advantages are clear: 32 contacts in shell size 18, backshell sealing gland, straight orientation, and 1/3 Bayonet coupling provide a compact, robust solution that ships with the connector and requires no special accessories for basic deployment. It also supports Souriau UTS family accessories for extended harness configurations and field repair scenarios. Addressing common objections, the density of 32 cavities is matched to a compact form factor, delivering a favorable weight of about 56.8 g and easy handling in confined spaces. For higher-power needs, engineers can refer to larger Souriau connectors with the same IP68/69K sealing and ruggedization, ensuring consistent interface compatibility and lifecycle cost savings.

FAQs
For installation, align the 32-contact plug with the mating receptacle, engage the 1/3 bayonet coupling until a defined stop is reached, and secure the Sealing Gland backshell to preserve IP68 integrity. Use compatible Souriau UTS accessories for extended harness lengths, and verify that the operating temperature and voltage ratings are within the installation parameters. The assembly process is designed to minimize misalignment and field rework, supporting reliable performance in rugged settings.
Yes. The connector is rated IP68 for water and dust ingress protection, with a -40 to 105 °C operating range and UV resistance. It also withstands 500 hours of salt spray, making it suitable for outdoor equipment, mobile machinery, and weather-exposed control panels. Its sealing gland backshell and robust polyamide insert help maintain signal integrity under vibration and washdown scenarios.
The UTS6JC1832P supports up to 5 A per contact (UL) and 4 A per contact (IEC), with test voltages of 32 V (IEC) or 250 V (CSA/UL). This aligns with typical sensor and actuator loads in automation systems, providing a safety margin for low-power control circuits while preserving reliable connections in demanding environments.
The connector complies with UL 1977, IEC 61984, and CSA-C22.2 No. 182.3, contributing to safety, interoperability, and regulatory acceptance in North American and international markets. Coupled with IP68 sealing and Souriau UTS series compatibility, these certifications assure reliable operation in harsh industrial environments, support maintenance planning, and simplify procurement for compliant automation projects.
ROI is driven by reduced maintenance, lower downtime, and longer service life. The 32-contact density in a compact shell size, 250 mating cycles, and sealing gland backshell minimize field failures and rework. Additional cost savings come from easier field installation, compatibility with existing Souriau UTS accessories, and lower warranty risk in outdoor or washdown environments.
