Feature → Business Impact → Application: IP68/IP69K sealing provides superior ingress protection, reducing maintenance cycles and downtime in wash-down environments, enabling longer service intervals for control panels in manufacturing lines and outdoors. Feature → Orientation Z keying and 1/3 bayonet coupling streamline mating with predictable alignment, improving installation speed by minimizing misalignment and rework in compact enclosures. Feature → Jam Nut Receptacle without backshell simplifies panel mounting and lowers assembly cost while maintaining a secure, vibration-resistant connection in automotive, rail, and process automation equipment. Feature → Eight PCB contacts with gold plating delivers reliable low-resistance connections, supporting precise signal integrity and power handling for embedded controllers and sensor arrays. Feature → Aluminium nut and Neoprene insert combine mechanical strength with environmental resilience, enhancing resistance to corrosion, UV exposure, and thermal cycling in outdoor machines. Feature → 6 A IEC and 4.5 A UL current ratings with 250 V CSA/UL and 32 V IEC voltages provide clear design margins for typical control circuits, while 250 mating cycles guarantee long service life in high-usage installations. Feature → Operating temperature range -40 °C to 105 °C ensures performance from cold industrial environments to hot machinery rooms, reducing the need for multiple part variants. These aspects collectively support compliance, reliability, and cost containment in industrial automation, robotics, energy, and mobility sectors.

FAQs
The UTS712D8SZ32 uses a jam nut receptacle, eliminating the need for a backshell and simplifying panel mounting. Its zinc-friendly aluminium nut and compact 25.3 mm L x 31.8 mm W x 31.8 mm H footprint fit tight control panels while maintaining IP68 sealing against water and dust ingress.
This connector provides 6 A IEC and 4.5 A UL rated current, with voltages of 250 V CSA/UL and 32 V IEC. It features 8 PCB contacts with gold plating for reliable signal integrity, and a mating life of about 250 cycles, suitable for frequent connect/disconnect cycles in automation.
With IP68 sealing, wide operating temperature (-40 °C to 105 °C), and resistance to oil, UV, and fuels, this connector is ideal for industrial automation, outdoor control panels, robotics, mobile machinery, and marine or offshore equipment where exposure to water, dust, and vibrations is common.
The UTS712D8SZ32 complies with IEC 61984, UL 1977, and CSA-C22.2 No.182.3, along with ROHS exemption 6.c. These certifications support safe integration into European, North American, and global industrial systems and help satisfy regulatory requirements for electrical connectors.
With 250 mating cycles and robust IP68 sealing, the UTS712D8SZ32 offers long service life in harsh settings. Plan for periodic inspection of the aluminium nut and seals, verify PCB contact integrity after exposure to oils or solvents, and ensure orientation keying (Z) is observed during mating to preserve performance.
