High reliability photovoltaic cable connector Amphenol UTXCMA2AM compliant with UL IEC and JET standards
Product Overview
The Amphenol UTX PV Cable Connector is a robust, triple-certified DC connector designed for global photovoltaic (PV) markets. It offers UL 6703 1500V, IEC 62852 1500V (Class A), and JET IEC 61730 1500V specifications. Evolving from the H4 connector, the UTX maintains the industry-standard mating configuration and incorporates Amphenols low resistance RADSOK contact technology. It is suitable for wire gauges from 14AWG/2.5mm to 8AWG/10mm and features an IP68 rating. Enhancements include a ratcheting gland back nut to prevent backspin, optimized material usage for efficiency and robustness, and a reduced part count leading to cost savings. The UTX is an ideal choice for all PV modules and installations worldwide.
