Eaton UTS712D3SY Plastic Waterproof Connector - IP68/69K

IP68/69K sealing protects against water, dust, and immersion, reducing ingress-related downtime and extending equipment life in pumps, conveyors, and outdoor machinery. The business impact is lower maintenance costs and longer service intervals, enabling operators to run longer shifts with fewer interruptions. The 3 PCB contacts are gold-plated for corrosion resistance and low contact resistance, which improves signal integrity and reduces the risk of intermittent failures in noisy industrial environments. In practice, engineers can design with greater confidence that critical control lines will remain sealed in wet or chemically aggressive areas, supporting safer, more reliable automation deployments. The 1/3 bayonet coupling offers quick, repeatable mating while resisting loosening under vibration, lowering field service time and enabling rapid panel commissioning in tight spaces. With 250 mating cycles, the connector is built for durable lifecycle performance on machinery that requires frequent maintenance or reconfigurations. The jam-nut receptacle design simplifies mounting without a backshell, cutting part counts and simplifying installation in compact enclosures. This configuration is well-suited for Souriau UTS ecosystems, ensuring compatibility with common backplane and daughterboard layouts and reducing design risk in automated lines and packaging machines. The insert material Neoprene and the aluminum nut contribute to a balanced combination of sealing efficiency and mechanical strength, enabling robust operation in fluctuating temperatures and exposure to oils and UV light. Overall, the UTS712D3SY supports global product availability, simplifying procurement and long-term support for multi-site operations.
