Eaton UTS7GJC1412PW Connector - IP68/IP69K Waterproof

IP68/69K sealing and jam-nut receptacle provide robust ingress protection in washdown and outdoor environments. This level of sealing reduces field failures, minimizes downtime, and extends component life in harsh plants. Applications include robotic cells, labeling lines, and outdoor control panels where moisture, dust, and temperature changes are routine. High-density 12-position layout reduces panel footprint and simplifies harness routing. The crimp contact design delivers reliable terminations with consistent pull-out resistance, enabling faster assembly and easier field replacement in tight panels. This improves overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) in automated lines and packaging machinery. 1/3 bayonet coupling allows quick mating and secure retention even under vibration. This translates into faster maintenance cycles, less rework, and predictable mating alignment for robots, conveyors, and CNC machinery. Backshell with a cable gland and grommet backshell provides strain relief across a cable diameter range of 5–14 mm and protects against moisture ingress. Benefit: longer cable life and fewer field repairs; implementation is straightforward on existing harnesses in harsh environments. Operating from -40 to 105 C, with a polyamide insert and UL94 V0 rating, plus RoHS and salt spray tests, this connector supports extreme environments and regulatory compliance. The result is reduced redesign needs and greater reliability on outdoor and high-temperature lines. Mating cycles of 250 ensure long-term reusability; compatibility with 12-contact cavities and 14-shell size simplifies integration with Eaton Souriau UTS families and existing wiring harnesses, reducing obsolescence risk.
