IP68/IP69K sealing and rugged plastic housing provide superior ingress protection and long-term environmental resistance, reducing unplanned downtime in washdown and outdoor settings. This translates to higher line availability and lower maintenance costs in demanding applications such as packaging and process automation. Ten-position crimp contacts in a jam-nut receptacle simplify cabling, save space, and speed field assembly, enabling faster machine upgrades and easier retrofits. The 1/3 bayonet coupling delivers reliable mating even under vibration, improving connection integrity in conveyors and robotic cells. Operating from -40 °C to 105 °C with a 6 A IEC / 5 A UL current rating and 250 V, it supports heavy industrial duty without compromising safety. Lightweight polyamide insert, aluminum nut, and plastic shell keep total installed mass low while maintaining mechanical strength for outdoor enclosures and IP-rated panels. Compatible with standard Eaton Souriau UTS accessories, the design reduces** total lifecycle costs by extending service intervals, enabling predictive maintenance, and simplifying spare-part inventories. With 250 mating cycles and a 500-hour salt-spray rating, this connector is well-suited for harsh environments and high-reliability automation systems, providing confidence for OEMs and end users alike.

FAQs
The UTS71210S uses 10 crimp contacts and a 1/3 bayonet coupling mechanism designed specifically for the jam-nut receptacle variant. It fits standard Souriau UTS accessories and is intended for compact, secure wiring in IP-rated panels. For best results, follow the recommended torque and mating sequence to maintain IP68/69K integrity during installation.
The connector supports a current rating of 6 A (IEC) or 5 A (UL) and a test voltage of 250 V (CSA/UL) with 250 V across the IEC rating. This makes it suitable for low-to-medium power signals and control circuits within rugged automation and machinery deployments, while preserving safe insulation and sealing performance.
Yes. The UTS71210S is rated IP68 and designed for harsh environments, including outdoor and washdown areas. Its polyamide insert and plastic shell, combined with a jam-nut receptacle and robust sealing, resist UV exposure, salt spray, and basic chemical exposure, ensuring reliable operation under weather and cleaning cycles.
This receptacle aligns with UL 1977, IEC 61984, and CSA-C22.2 No.182.3, with RoHS compliance and UL94 V0 flame rating. These certifications support safe, regulatory-compliant operation in many industrial applications, from machinery to process automation and control panels.
The jam-nut receptacle design enables compact, secure mounting without backshells, reducing panel depth and installation time. Its light weight (12.7 g) and 12-shell size simplify routing in tight spaces, while high mating cycles (up to 250) support longer maintenance intervals. This translates to lower field labor costs and improved equipment uptime.
