Eaton UTS7GJC128P Connector - IP68/69K 8-contact Receptacle
Part Number: UTS7GJC128P
Quick Summary
Eaton UTS7GJC128P connector is a waterproof electrical connector for harsh-environment machinery and control panels. That means reliable performance in moisture-prone outdoor installations where moisture ingress, vibration, and contamination threaten uptime. Certified to UL 1977, CSA-C22.2 No.182.3, and IEC 61984, it aligns with global safety and interoperability standards. Its IP68 rating and IP69K compatibility protect against dust and heavy water exposure, while the jam-nut receptacle design supports secure, field-serviceable mating. Using the Souriau UTS series in automation projects reduces maintenance costs and extends mean time between outages, especially on rugged industrial equipment. This combination of performance, compatibility, and ease of installation delivers tangible business value to OEMs and end users.

FAQs
Installation requires using the jam-nut receptacle with the included sealing gland and grommet backshell. Ensure cable diameter is within 3–12 mm, tighten the jam nut to specification, and verify backshell engagement for full IP68 protection. These steps minimize ingress paths and maximize long-term moisture resistance in harsh environments.
The connector is rated 10 A for UL and IEC contexts and carries 8 crimp contacts arranged for a robust 8-pin configuration. The combination of contact design, crimp termination quality, and tight backshell sealing ensures reliable current delivery and signal integrity in automation and sensing networks.
Yes. The UTS7GJC128P uses a standard Souriau UTS series interface, including a Sealing Gland backshell and jam-nut receptacle. This compatibility simplifies accessory selection, reduces replacement lead times, and supports consistent sealing performance across mixed equipment in an installation.
The product complies with UL 1977, CSA-C22.2 No.182.3, and IEC 61984, addressing safety, interconnectivity, and international acceptance in electrical connectors. This helps ensure compliance in North American and international control systems and supports system-level certifications for industrial equipment.
ROI comes from reduced maintenance, fewer field failures, and longer mean time between outages due to IP68/69K sealing and rugged materials. The 250 mating cycles and wide operating temperature range enable longer service life in outdoor enclosures and automated lines, lowering replacement costs and downtime in mission-critical processes.
