The IP68/69K rating delivers reliable moisture and dust exclusion, protecting critical signal and power paths in outdoor and dirty environments, which translates to reduced downtime and longer equipment life. With a 23-position layout and 1/3 bayonet coupling, the connector supports dense wiring and quick field assembly, enabling faster panel inclusions and simpler maintenance. The jam-nut receptacle paired with a sealing gland provides a robust, sealed backshell solution that maintains integrity under vibration and oil exposure, improving overall uptime in conveyors and machining lines. Operating from -40 °C to 105 °C and rated for up to 10 A (UL) / 9 A (IEC) per channel, this connector withstands harsh factory floors while meeting stringent regulatory requirements (UL 1977, IEC 61984, CSA C22.2). The polyamide insert and aluminum nut material offer corrosion resistance and light weight, helping OEMs optimize total cost of ownership. The 250 mating cycle lifespan supports frequent maintenance cycles without performance loss, and the 23 contacts enable multi-signal bundles for advanced automation networks. Compatibility with Souriau UTS series backshells and standard crimp contacts ensures seamless integration with existing harnesses, reducing rework and inventory complexity. In practice, integrators gain faster time-to-value for rugged automation deployments and improved field reliability in outdoor and harsh indoor environments.

FAQs
Installation requires aligning the 1/3 bayonet coupling with the mating half, tightening the jamnut for a watertight seal, and securing the backshell via the sealing gland. Use correct crimp contacts to ensure reliable electrical continuity and verify the orientation is Z for correct mating alignment. Ensure the strain relief is used to protect the cable gland and maintain IP68 integrity.
The unit supports 10 A per test current (UL) and 9 A per IEC for each contact, with a test voltage of up to 500 V UL/CSA and 63 V IEC. It is rated for 250 mating cycles, making it suitable for frequent maintenance and field servicing in demanding automation environments.
Yes. The connector operates from -40 °C to 105 °C and carries environmental resistance suitable for UV exposure, oil, mineral oil, and chemical baths. Its IP68 rating with a sealing gland backshell and a robust plastic shell ensures reliability in outdoor conveyors and rugged robotic systems, minimizing performance loss in temperature extremes.
The connector complies with IEC 61984, UL 1977, and CSA C22.2 No. 182.3, providing recognized safety, performance, and interchangeability standards for industrial connectors. This simplifies supplier qualification, regulatory approvals for machinery, and integration with certified control panels, reducing risk during audits and helping maintain compliant plant operations.
The IP68/69K seal reduces moisture ingress, lowering environmental wear and maintenance frequency. The 23-pin configuration enables dense harnessing, reducing harness length and connectors needed. With a 250 mating cycle rating and robust resistance to oils and chemicals, the total cost of ownership drops through fewer replacements, less downtime, and easier field servicing, improving overall equipment uptime and production ROI.
