IP68/IP69K sealing in unmated conditions minimizes moisture and dust ingress, reducing gasket replacement and field failure costs. This translates to lower maintenance overhead in outdoor machines such as mobile equipment, agricultural gear, or construction machinery. The 12-position receptacle uses gold-plated solder cup contacts, delivering reliable signal and power transmission even in harsh environments, which translates to fewer contact failures and extended service life for automation panels. A 1/3 bayonet coupling enables fast, tool-free mating in tight spaces, improving installation speed and on-site reliability while reducing downtime during maintenance cycles. With a mating lifetime of 250 cycles, operators gain predictable performance and cost savings from fewer connector replacements in robotics, conveyors, and PMS systems. The -40 to 105 °C operating range supports wide ambient conditions, ensuring performance in cold starts and hot plant floors, while corrosion resistance is reinforced by salt spray protection for outdoor installations. Not delivered accessories let you tailor mounting options to the panel, and aluminium nut material provides robust suspension in vibration-prone environments. The Souriau UTS family aligns with UL 1977 and IEC 61984 standards, delivering compliance and a familiar repair footprint for service teams. RoHS and CSA certifications further ensure regulatory compatibility across global deployments, reducing sourcing risk and facilitating maintenance planning.

FAQs
The UTS714E12S is a jam-nut receptacle designed for panel mounting, using a 1/3 bayonet coupling for quick mating. It is specified as a load-ready, 12-contact receptacle with gold-plated solder cup contacts and a plastic shell, compatible with Souriau UTS series interfaces to maintain consistent mating geometry and ease of replacement in service agreements.
Key specs include a current rating of 4 A IEC / 4.5 A UL, test current of up to 4.5 A, and test voltages up to 250 V depending on standard. Operating temperature ranges from -40 °C to 105 °C. The connector carries IP68 sealing, is RoHS compliant (exemption 6.c in applicable regions), and resists salt spray, basic/acidic baths, and mineral oil exposure, making it suitable for harsh environments.
Yes. Its IP68/69K sealing, robust 12-contact layout, and vibration resistance via 1/3 bayonet coupling make it well-suited for outdoor robotics and conveyor systems. The 250-mating-cycle durability and gold-plated solder cups support reliable connections in dynamic, maintenance-heavy installations while complying with UL 1977 and IEC 61984 standards.
Key certifications include UL 1977, IEC 61984, and CSA-C22.2 No.182.3, along with RoHS exemptions. The IP68 rating adds environmental compliance for ingress protection. These certifications help ensure reliability, safety, and regulatory alignment across North American and European supply chains.
With 250 mating cycles and corrosion-resistant features, the UTS714E12S reduces replacement frequency and maintenance downtime. The plug-in, jam-nut design simplifies field swaps, and sourcing a single connector family reduces spare parts diversity. Accessory options are available separately, enabling tailored installation while controlling initial and ongoing costs.
