FAQs
The UTS7106P uses a jam-nut receptacle with a 1/3 Bayonet coupling, designed for straightforward panel mounting. Ensure correct alignment of the 6-pin crimp contacts, tighten the aluminum nut against the housing for IP68 sealing, and use compatible Souriau UTS accessories if needed. Verify operating temperature constraints (-40 °C to 105 °C) and mating cycle expectations (around 250 cycles) to maintain performance over time.
This receptacle provides a current rating of 7 A IEC (6 A UL) and a test current up to 7 A IEC, with a test voltage of 250 V CSA and 250 V UL (32 V IEC). It supports six contacts in a 6-position layout, ensuring reliable power and signal transmission within standard industrial equipment operating ranges.
The connector is well-suited for harsh environments typical of automation, conveyors, outdoor machinery, mining, and outdoor agricultural equipment. Its IP68/IP69K protection, UV resistance, and oil/chemical resistance make it a strong choice for machinery exposed to moisture, dust, and temperature extremes, while its compact 33.9 mm length supports tight enclosures.
UL 1977 and CSA-C22.2 No.182.3, along with IEC 61984, are highlighted compliance references that guarantee safety, electrical interoperability, and global compatibility. This helps simplify procurement across multinational facilities and ensures consistent performance in diverse regulatory environments.
Maintenance benefits come from its sealed IP68/69K design, resistant materials, and long service life (salt spray resistance and UV stability). The 250 mating cycles indicate durability in repeatedly connected systems. ROI is driven by reduced downtime, easier field servicing, and extended interval maintenance, especially in rugged automation applications.
