FAQs
The UTS8DCG sealing cap is designed specifically for the UTS receptacle in the Eaton Souriau UTS series. It corresponds to shell size 8 and provides a reliable IP68/69k seal, ensuring a secure fit with standard UTS connectors while maintaining compact form factors for space-constrained installations.
This sealing cap achieves IP68/69k waterproof sealing and is RoHS and REACH compliant. It also carries UL94 V0 flame rating, supporting safe operation in environments with stringent material and safety requirements.
By preventing ingress during maintenance and field servicing, the cap reduces moisture intrusion and dust ingress, leading to longer service intervals, fewer unplanned outages, and lower total cost of ownership for equipment exposed to challenging conditions.
Ensure the cap is matched to shell size 8 UTS receptacles, aligned per the manufacturer’s mating guidelines, and installed with standard tools. Verify a secure seal by inspecting the interface for uniform compression and absence of gaps, especially in dusty or submerged environments.
Yes. With RoHS, REACH, and UL94 V0 compliance, plus IP68/69k sealing, the cap supports regulatory audits and simplifies part standardization across UTS-based systems, enabling easier supplier management and faster approvals for rugged industrial deployments.
