Eaton UTS712D8SZ Plastic Waterproof Receptacle - IP68/69K
Part Number: UTS712D8SZ
Quick Summary
The Eaton UTS712D8SZ Plastic Waterproof Receptacle is a rugged IP68/69K PCB connector designed for harsh industrial environments. In projects with tight panel space and exposure to dust, water spray, or vibration, reliable sealing is critical. This family meets IEC 61984 and UL 1977 standards with ROHS exemption 6.c, delivering IP68 sealing and robust performance. Designed for eight PCB contacts in a jam-nut receptacle, it enables compact, serviceable connections that reduce field maintenance. Industrial buyers gain predictable performance, with a durable operating range from -40 to 105°C and proven mating cycles. The combination of aluminum nut, plastic shell, and neoprene insert provides excellent chemical resistance and long-term reliability. For OEMs and integrators, the no backshell option simplifies installation in tight enclosures and reduces accessory costs.

FAQs
To install, verify the panel cutout, insert the receptacle with the Z orientation, thread the jam nut onto the panel, and tighten firmly to seal. Ensure the mating interface is clean and the backshell option is not needed, as this model is specified without a backshell. After installation, test IP68 sealing by performing a controlled ingress test.
The connector is rated for 4.5 A UL and 6 A IEC, with a test current of 6 A IEC and 4.5 A UL. Voltage ratings include 32 V IEC and 250 V UL/CSA. It delivers eight gold-plated PCB contacts and supports reliable signal transmission within these limits.
Yes. The UTS712D8SZ offers IP68 sealing, UV resistance, and a wide operating temperature range from -40 °C to 105 °C. The robust neoprene insert and plastic shell withstand environmental exposure, while the jam-nut receptacle design keeps the assembly compact and vibration-tolerant in outdoor machinery.
Key certifications include IEC 61984, UL 1977, and CSA-C22.2 No. 182.3, along with ROHS exemption 6.c. These align with industrial safety and environmental requirements, helping you demonstrate compliance in controlled environments and regulated markets.
The jam-nut receptacle provides a secure, vibration-resistant fit without a backshell, reducing accessory costs and simplifying field servicing.
