Six-position jam nut receptacle with a sealing gland backshell delivers a robust seal and secure mounting, reducing ingress risk. This design simplifies panel mounting in tight spaces, especially on conveyors, packaging lines, and rugged automation rigs where vibration is constant. It enables clean, organized six-pin crimp connections in a single compact footprint, with a straight backshell orientation that minimizes cabling angles. The 74.5 mm length and 27 x 27 mm envelope fit standard panel cutouts without excessive protrusion, helping maintain enclosure integrity. High ingress protection is achieved through IP68 sealing, safeguarding sensitive electronics from water, dust, and washdown. A 500-hour salt spray rating indicates corrosion resistance in harsh environments, contributing to longer service life and lower maintenance costs. In practice, this reduces field failure rates and service calls in outdoor or wet locations. Fast mating is supported by 1/3 bayonet coupling, which shortens installation time and minimizes worker fatigue. In manufacturing cells or material handling lines, quick disconnects mean faster line changes and easier maintenance without special tooling. Six crimp contacts in a plastic shell offer lightweight, cost-effective connectivity, while maintaining electrical performance for signals and limited power. This suits sensor networks, controllers, and small motor drives, enabling streamlined harnessing and reduced cabling mass. Operating temperature range from -40°C to 105°C ensures reliable operation across cold rooms and high-heat environments. Combined with RoHS compliance, it supports regulatory requirements and sustainability goals in industrial automation projects. Compatibility and installation advantages include straight backshell and jam nut mounting for straightforward panel integration. The UTSX7JC106P is designed to pair with other UTSX components for scalable automation systems, minimizing obsolescence risk and extending the value of existing inventories.

FAQs
The UTSX7JC106P is a six‑position jam‑nut receptacle designed to mate with corresponding UTSX plug and receptacle halves in the same family. It shares the same 1/3 bayonet coupling, straight backshell, and crimp contact format, ensuring straightforward cross‑compatibility across UTSX components. This minimizes obsolescence risk and simplifies inventory management on existing automation lines.
Key specs include six crimp contacts in a plastic shell, a 74.5 mm length with a 27 mm width and height footprint, IP68 sealing, -40 to 105 C operating temperature, 250 mating cycles, RoHS compliance, and a sealing gland backshell. The connector is designed for six‑position, straight‑orientation panel connections in demanding environments.
Yes. With IP68 sealing and RoHS compliance, the UTSX7JC106P is well suited to outdoor, washdown, and corrosive environments. The 500‑hour salt spray rating further indicates corrosion resistance, supporting long‑term reliability in harsh industrial settings such as food and beverage manufacturing, water treatment, and outdoor automation installations.
Prepare a standard panel cutout to accommodate a 74.5 mm length and 27 x 27 mm footprint. Use the jam nut to secure mounting and ensure the sealing gland backshell is tightened to maintain IP68 integrity. Align with the straight backshell orientation for clean cabling runs, and terminate six crimp contacts per the connector’s six‑cavity layout to optimize reliability.
The UTSX7JC106P supports up to 250 mating cycles, indicating good service life for frequent mating scenarios. Regular maintenance should include inspecting seals for wear, verifying backshell sealing integrity, and confirming cable gland integrity after washdown or heavy vibration. With IP68 protection and RoHS compliance, routine checks help sustain performance and minimize downtime.
