UTL Series | Overview
Description
• The UTL Series is a plastic connector range
that meets industrial safety standards.
• UTL can be used for power supply and power
+ control supply with DMX or RDM signal.
• The «Key hole» of the coupling system
allows blind mating. In dark conditions the
mechanical
discriminations
allow
easy
mating to avoid connector damage.
• The stainless steel latch coupling system is
simple to use. With only 1 finger, connectors
are mated with an audible click.
• An optional protective shroud is also available to
prevent the disconnection of the connectors
without a tool.
• The UTL Series is rated at IP68/69K even in
dynamic conditions and remains sealed
even when used continuously underwater
or cleaned using a high pressure hose while
the cable is moving.
•
The UTL Series uses an outdoor rated
material per Underwriters Laboratories.
•
Cable assembly equipped with DMX +
Power cables suitable for outdoor use (PUR
or Neoprene outer jacket), please consult us
for more information.

UTL Series | Overview
Qualification time saving
In today’s fast paced environment we are all buying electronic devices with confidence. To achieve such a high level of
trust, the regulator had to put in place a wide variety of safety standards. Some are dedicated to the equipment, some to
the connection.
SOURIAU designed and qualified the UTL Series according to the UL 1977 and IEC 61984 but we also took into
account additional requirements.

Customized solution capability
Overmolded cable assembly
SOURIAU has provided connectors for various applications for more than 90 years that have been used in the most extreme environments.
Conscious about the difficulty in finding a quick and reliable harness manufacturer, we began our own in-house overmolded cable assembly
production. It allows customers to reduce the number of suppliers and to take advantage of the “best in class” quality of the SOURIAU
group. Overmolding is a process that further enhances the sealing properties and helps to minimize stress on the cable termination to the
connector. In addition, the wires are encapsulated inside the molding which creates a barrier preventing liquid/moisture from entering the
equipment through the connector or cable jacket if breached.

Description
The UTL series is delivered without contacts (crimp version). This series offers the unique possibility to use the same contact in any layout as
long as it receives the same active part size.
This provides the benefit of standardization and subsequent reduced inventory costs. In addition, it eliminates the need for added tooling and
simplifies the assembly process. SOURIAU contacts are designed for simple snap-in installation and further eliminate the need for insertion
tooling.
Crimp contacts are available in different versions:
• Machined
• Stamped & Formed
The UTL series 3 + ground can be equipped with PCB contacts
36
• Coaxial
UTL Series | Contacts
Contacts
Contact plating selector guide
Once the contact size has been selected, the next step is to decide on which type to use. SOURIAU offers two main types of electrical contacts:
• Machined
• Stamped & Formed
Machined contacts are generally chosen as a better solution for power applications or when lower quantities are needed.
Stamped & formed contacts offer the ability to be crimped automatically which makes them more suitable for high volume production
applications.
The next decision to make is: What plating should I choose?
The graph below can help guide you to plating recommendations based on application, mating cycles and current/voltage needs.
Note: do not mix different plating (i.e. tin plated pin contacts with gold plated socket contacts).

#16 coaxial contacts
Coaxial contact range
Note: Coax contacts cannot be used in the ground cavity
We provide 2 types of coaxial contacts suitable for 50 or 75Ω, coaxial cable or twisted pair cable.
Monocrimp coaxial contact
• The monocrimp one-piece coaxial contacts offer high reliability plus the
economic advantage of a 95% reduction in installation time over conventional
assembly methods.
• This economy is achieved by simultaneously crimping both the inner conductor
and outer braid or drain wire.
Multipiece crimp coaxial contact
• The inner conductor and outer braid is crimped individually.
• The thermoplastic insulating bushing in the outer body is designed to accept
and permanently retain the inner contact.
• An outer ferrule is used to connect the braid to the outer contact and provide
cable support to ensure against bending and vibration.
Contacts
Suitable for coaxial cable or twisted cable
• For jacket diameter from 0.025" to 0.1057"
Inner conductor from 30 AWG to 24 AWG
• For jacket diameter from 0.070" to 0.120"
Inner conductor up to 0.096" diameter

Handle & interchangeable heads for crimp contacts
Crimping with SOURIAU tooling
1) Fully close then release the tool, keep it open.
Open the 2 pins.
2) Choose the adapter head (sold separately), keep vertical and
slide it into the handle until the mechanical stop.
3) Close the two pins simultaneously to maintain the head.
4) Strip the cable properly by checking the recommended size
in the catalog on pages 46 to 48.
GOOD
WRONG
5) Place conductors, with no deterioration, in the contact bucket.
All strands to be located in the crimp bucket.
6) Position the contact in the bottom of the tool by checking
its orientation. Maintain the wire in position.
7) Tighten sharply the handles to the end of the mechanism
(max 175 N). After handles are opened, extract the contact.
8) Control the quality of crimping (see page 53).
Note: Assembly operations mentioned above shall not interfere or to be in contradiction with the IPC-WHMA-A-620B

Crimping control for crimp contacts
Crimping
- No health risk from heavy metal and flux steam
- Preservation of conductor flexibility behind the crimped
connection
- No burned, discolored and overheated wire insulation
- Good connections with reproducible electrical and mechanical
performances
- Easy production control.
To ensure that the crimp tooling is performing according to original
specifications, it is important to carry out regular checks. A common
way to check the performance of tooling is with a simple pull test,
ideally using a dedicated electric pull tester. Minimum recommended
pull forces are indicated in the tables below:

One of the key factors which affects the performance of a connector
is the way contacts are terminated. Crimped connections are today
seen as the best solution to ensure quality throughout the lifetime of
the product. Here are some reasons why we recommend this method
of termination for UTL connectors:
Advantages (Extract from the IEC 60352-2):
- Efficient processing of connections at each production level
- Processing by fully-automatic or semi- automatic crimping
machines, or with hand operated tools
- No cold-soldered joints
- No degradation of the spring characteristic of female contacts
by the soldering temperature

UTL Series | Technical Information
Rated current & working voltage
Current carrying capacity
The current carrying capacity of a connector is limited by the thermal properties of materials used in its construction. The amount of current that
can be handled depends on the size of cable used, the ambient temperature and the heat that is generated inside the connector. Part 3 of the
IEC 60512 standard determines through a derating curve, the maximum current permissible, which varies from one layout to another (Fig.1 &
Fig.2). Wire size plays an important role as well, since they help to dissipate heat and avoid overheating (Fig.1 & Fig.2).
Please note that the curve should be adjusted when dealing with potential hot spots, which can occur as a result of unequal loading of current
across a number of contacts. As a general rule, it is best to avoid locating power handling contacts in the middle of the connector; try to locate
them towards the edge where heat can be dissipated more effectively. Eventually you should find a level which represents the permissible
operating range:

UV resistance
UV resistance
Solar radiation affects all materials, but plastics can be
susceptible to extreme degradation over time.
The choice of materials for the UTL series was therefore
a critical consideration.
All over the world we are not exposed to the same
amount of energy given by the sun. The chart shown
here clearly illustrates this.
So we performed test according to the ISO 4892-2 and
simulated 5 years exposure to outdoor environments
(temperature, humidity, etc...).

UL94 + UL1977
Underwriter laboratories
There are two main standards for industrial connectors: UL94 & UL1977
UL 94: Tests for Flammability of Plastic Materials for Parts
in Devices and Appliances
This standard is dedicated to plastics flammability. It characterizes how the material burns in various orientation and thicknesses. Whereas most
of our competitors are using a 50W test to classify the ability of their solution to withstand fire, SOURIAU decided to increase this to a 500W test.
New regulations tend to emphasize the importance of burning behavior making the 50W test less and less relevant.
The UTL series has been rated at 5VA.
Procedure: Bar specimens are to be 4.921" long by 0.511" wide, and provided in the minimum thickness.
Plaque specimens are to be 5.905" by 5.905" and provided in the minimum thickness.
Thicker specimens may also be provided and shall be tested if the results obtained on the minimum thickness indicate inconsistent test results.
The maximum thickness is not to exceed 0.511".

layer of not more than 0.08 g of absorbent cotton thinned to
approximately 1.968" x 1.968" and a maximum thickness of
0.236".
• The 500W flame is then to be applied to one of the lower
corners of the specimen so that the tip of the blue cone is
within 0 to 0.118" of the specimen edge.
• Apply the flame for 5±0.5 seconds and then remove for
5±0.5 seconds. Repeat the operation until the specimen
has been subjected to five applications of the test flame.

Assembly:
Connector has to be keyed to prevent any mismating that can damage the machine or hurt the user. In the same way, plugs and sockets have to
be equipped to protect persons against contact with live parts.
Finally the identified grounding contact shall be located so that the corresponding electrical continuity has to be completed before any other
contact.

IEC 61984 & IP codes explained
IEC 61984
The norm is dedicated to connectors with rated voltage above 50V and up to 1000V and rated currents up to 125A per contact.
Depending on your application connectors could be compliant with another standard. This has to be double checked with the customer.
There are a lot of constructional requirements and performances specified in that standard. Most of them are illustrated in greater details hereafter.
Provisions for grounding:
The UTL connector is intended to be used on Class I,II and III systems (See IEC 61140) . Not like a typical connector, the UTL can be used to
interrupt current. The “First mate Last break” contact feature is built in so any regular contact will ensure the functionality. Critically, among all of
the normal assumptions we make in designing a connector, this contact has to be considered as a live part and must be protected against electric
shock by double or reinforced insulation.

Overvoltage
UTL connectors are qualified to be used on systems rated at Overvoltage category III
Per the IEC 60664-1 (formely VDE 0110) each category is linked to the end application and where the device will be implemented:
• Category IV (primary overcurrent protection equipment):
Origin of the installation
• Category III (Any fixed installation with a permanent connection)
Fixed installation and equipment and for cases where the reliability and the availability is subject to special requirements
• Category II (Domestic applicances):
Energy consuming equipment to be supplied from the fixed installation
• Category I (Protected electronic circuit):
For connection to circuit in which measurements are taken to limit transient overvoltage.
Pollution degree
• Degree 1 (Air conditioned dry room):
No pollution or only dry, non conductive pollution occurs. The pollution has no influence.
• Degree 2 (Personal computer in a residential area):
Only non conductive pollution occurs except that occasionally a temporary conductivity caused by condensation is to be
expected.
• Degree 3 (Machine tools):
Conductive pollution occurs or dry non-conductive pollution occurs which becomes conductive due to condensation which is to
be expected.
• Degree 4 (Equipment on roofs, locomotives):
Continuous conductivity occurs due to conductive dust, rain or other wet conditions.
Technical Information
Per the IEC 60664-1 (formerly VDE 0110) the environment affects the performance of the insulation. Particles can build a bridge between
two metal parts. As a rule dust mixed with water can be conductive and more generally speaking metal dust is conductive. Finally, the
standard defines 4 levels of pollution:
Finally, the harsher the environment is, the longer clearance and creepage distances should be. Nonetheless, according the IEC 61984,
enclosure rated at IP54 or higher can be dimensioned for a lower pollution degree. This applies to mated connectors disengaged for test and
maintenance.
Marking
The marking should give enough details to the user to know what the main characteristics are and without going deep in technical
documentation. Below examples identify the suitability of the connector:
• Example 1:
Marking of a connector with rated current 16A, rated voltage 400V, rated impulse voltage 6kV and pollution degree 3, 2 and 1 for

UTL Series | Technical Information
IEC 61140 explained
IEC 61140
On a daily basis, we are using many electrical appliances, some are grounded, and some are not. The levels of grounding protection are clearly
defined by the International Electrotechnical Commission standard IEC 61140, a standard that has an influence on our connectors and how
they should be used; our customers therefore need to pay particular attention to the three categories defined within this standard to ensure
compatibility with their system. Everything explained hereafter is valid for connectors not intended to interrupt current.
Class I:
Devices which belong to this category have their chassis grounded via the ground wire (green/yellow in Europe, green in the US, Canada and
Japan). A fault in the appliance might cause a live conductor to energize the casing. In this case, the current flows to the ground conductor and
the circuit interrupter will cut off the power supply. In case of the UTL series, the envelope cannot become live since it is made in plastic. There
is no special care to be taken to attach the connector shell to the ground.
Class II:
Products in this category have reinforced insulation, meaning that the casing does not need to be connected to ground. In this case, the
possibility of electric shock has been removed. Most of the time, reinforced insulation means double insulation, i.e. the second layer will take over
the first one in case the first one fails. The UTL series could be used in that condition. We recommend to contact SOURIAU for further explanation.
Note: UL 1310 also defines a class II device, but in that case this is just to set the upper limit of use, like a wall charger for our cell phone.
Class III:
In this category, electrical appliances are fed by a low voltage source (
