Eaton UTSX714E18S Plastic Circular Bayonet Connector - IP68
Part Number: UTSX714E18S
Quick Summary
The Eaton Souriau UTSX714E18S plastic circular bayonet connector provides rugged, sealed electrical connections for harsh industrial environments. Engineers often grapple with environmental ingress, bulky backshells, and time-consuming field terminations, making quick maintenance a nightmare. The design achieves IP68/69K sealing in unmated conditions and RoHS compliance, with 18 contacts, gold‑flash solder cups, and a compact 24.5 mm length. This jam-nut receptacle is built for 250 mating cycles and a -40 to 105 C operating range, offering a reliable service life. By combining lightweight plastic housing, fast 1/3 bayonet coupling, and compatibility with the Souriau UTSX family, it lowers weight, simplifies installation, and reduces downtime for OEMs and service providers.

IP68/IP69K sealing and jam-nut receptacle: The unmated seal keeps dust and water out in harsh environments, reducing field failures and downtime in outdoor, washdown, or dusty environments. This translates to higher equipment availability and lower maintenance costs for industrial machinery and automation systems. The UTSX714E18S is ideal for offshore, mining, and agricultural applications where rugged protection directly impacts total cost of ownership. 18 gold-flash solder cup contacts: Reliable, low-resistance connections with corrosion resistance support consistent signal and power delivery in vibration-heavy settings. This enables longer-term performance on packaging lines and material-handling equipment, minimizing rework and warranty costs. 1/3 bayonet coupling: Fast, tool-free mating and un-mating saves installation time and reduces commissioning costs, even in tight panel spaces. It improves serviceability in field repairs, helping maintenance teams stay productive during plant downtimes. RoHS compliant plastic shell: Lightweight yet sturdy housing with regulatory compliance supports environmental responsibility and easy OEM integration, lowering overall system weight and simplifying design for automated machinery. Operating temperature -40 to 105 C and 250 mating cycles: The broad temperature tolerance and durable mating lifecycle ensure reliability across climate-controlled factories or outdoor installations, reducing unexpected failures and replacement expenses. Compatibility with the Souriau UTSX family: A familiar footprint and mating interface streamline inventory management, spare-part availability, and cross-model interchangeability for growing automation projects.

FAQs
To install the UTSX714E18S jam-nut receptacle, mount the connector through the panel, tighten the jam nut to secure the shell, and connect the 18 solder cup contacts using proper wave or hand-solder techniques. Note that this variant ships without a backshell, so plan cable routing and strain relief accordingly for optimal ingress protection and cable management in industrial enclosures.
The 18 solder cup contacts with gold flash plating provide low contact resistance and high reliability in vibration-prone environments typical of automation equipment. The 1/3 bayonet coupling enables rapid mating, reducing commissioning time, while the RoHS-compliant plastic shell keeps weight down and simplifies regulatory compliance for modern automated lines.
Yes. The connector features IP68/IP69K sealing in unmated conditions, protecting against dust and water ingress in challenging outdoor and washdown settings. With a wide operating temperature range of -40 to 105 C and robust mating cycles, it remains reliable in harsh climates often found in mining, agriculture, and outdoor packaging facilities.
With up to 250 mating cycles and gold-flash contact plating, the UTSX714E18S supports long service life and reduced replacement frequency. The jam-nut receptacle design simplifies mounting and field servicing, while the absence of a backshell reduces potential leak paths and maintenance complexity in dense control panels.
This connector complies with RoHS environmental requirements and delivers substantial ingress protection with IP68/IP69K ratings in unmated conditions. It is part of Eaton’s Souriau UTSX family, offering a regulated, space-efficient solution aligned with modern industrial automation standards and regulator expectations for safe, reliable operations.
