FAQs
Yes. The UTS8DCGE is designed for UTS receptacles with a square flange sealing cap (size 8), facilitating straightforward panel mounting and mating with existing UTS components. Ensure panel cutouts match the 8-shell size and provide proper mating clearance for reliable engagement.
The unit features IP68/69k waterproof protection and a plastic construction with UL94 V0 flammability rating and RoHS/REACH compliance. These specs confirm suitability for washdown environments, high-temperature processes, and regulatory adherence in most industrial applications.
Industries such as food and beverage, packaging, automotive manufacturing, and process automation benefit due to washdown exposure, vibration, and space constraints. Equipment like conveyors, sensors, and control panels gain improved reliability and ease of maintenance with this UTS receptacle solution.
Key certifications include IP68/69k for immersion resistance, UL94 V0 for flame retardancy, and RoHS/REACH for restricted substances. These align with industry safety standards and support compliant procurement and auditing processes.
The sealed IP68/69k design reduces ingress-related failures, while the sealing cap protects unmated connectors, lowering field-service visits. The lightweight, compact form speeds installation, contributing to reduced total cost of ownership and quicker system commissioning.
