FAQs
Install by inserting the PCB into the receptacle’s pads, then tighten the jam nut against the panel to secure the unit. There is no backshell accessory, so provide adequate enclosure sealing and strain relief around the footprint. The footprint is 25.3 mm long with a 24 × 24 mm opening, and the orientation is X for mating alignment.
The UTS78D2SX32 uses a plastic shell with a neoprene insert and a 1/3 bayonet coupling to achieve IP68 sealing in unmated conditions. It is designed to resist vibrations per IEC 60512-4 and offers UV resistance and oil/gasoline/basic bath resistance, making it suitable for outdoor and industrial settings.
Yes. The design includes a robust jam nut receptacle and 1/3 bayonet coupling to maintain mating integrity under vibration. It supports up to 250 mating cycles, with two PCB contacts that remain gold-plated for consistent electrical performance even after repeated connects and disconnects in demanding environments.
This connector aligns with IEC 61984, UL 1977, and CSA-C22.2 No.182.3, with RoHS exemption 6.c. These certifications help ensure safety, interoperability, and environmental compliance across industries, aiding faster approvals in automotive, industrial, and machinery applications. For formal documentation, contact us for the latest certificates and usage limits.
The two gold-plated PCB contacts reduce resistance and corrosion, contributing to longer service life with fewer maintenance cycles. Its compact weight (7.1 g), IP68/69K sealing, and no backshell simplify installation and reduce upfront costs. Coupled with 250 mating cycles and robust performance in temperature extremes, this connector lowers downtime and supports predictable maintenance planning.
