FAQs
The UTS718CCRY is part of the Eaton Souriau UTS series and is designed to mate with UTS receptacles. It uses a size 18 shell and a yellow coding ring to ensure correct alignment and reliable mating in standard UTS assemblies. For best results, match with the corresponding UTS receptacle components and follow the established mating sequence in the documentation.
The IP68/69k rating provides exceptional protection against dust and water ingress, enabling operation in immersion and high-pressure wash environments. This reduces the risk of moisture-related failures in outdoor equipment, control panels, and exposed automation devices, improving uptime and lowering maintenance costs in harsh industrial settings.
Ideal for industrial automation, outdoor machinery, and rugged sensor networks, the UTS718CCRY supports environments where moisture, dust, and EMI considerations matter. Its compact form factor and compatibility with the UTS ecosystem make it suitable for space-constrained panels, outdoor enclosures, and equipment exposed to challenging weather conditions.
This connector complies with RoHS and REACH environmental standards and features UL94 V0 flame rating for safe material performance. It also carries an IP68/69k rating for robust ingress protection, aligning with common regulatory requirements in industrial automation, outdoor equipment, and marine-adjacent installations.
Installation benefits include straightforward mating within the UTS family, a lightweight 1 g profile, and a compact footprint that reduces harness complexity. ROI comes from lower maintenance, fewer field failures due to robust sealing, and faster assembly times thanks to standardized Souriau components and the yellow coding ring for rapid identification.
