Eaton EDR-3000-2A0EA0 Distribution Relay - Profibus-DP/RS-485
Part Number: EDR-3000-2A0EA0
Quick Summary
EDR-3000 distribution relay provides robust feeder protection and control for industrial panels. Operators often struggle with wiring complexity and inconsistent diagnostics when adding remote-capable relays. Compliance status is region-dependent; verify with Eaton, with common targets including CE/UL and IP considerations as applicable. This 4-in/4-out device supports Profibus-DP over D-Sub/RS-485, wide power ranges, and removable terminals, delivering streamlined procurement and faster maintenance. By consolidating protection, metering, and communication in one compact unit, it helps lower panel footprint while boosting uptime and network visibility in automated feeder networks.

FAQs
For installation, plan a semi-flush mounting approach to maximize panel space and ensure adequate clearance for removable terminals. Confirm power supply compatibility (19-300Vdc or 40-250Vac, 50/60 Hz) and allocate 4 input and 4 output channels for your feeder configuration. Use the removable terminals to simplify wiring changes during commissioning and future upgrades, reducing on-site downtime.
The EDR-3000-2A0EA0 communicates via Profibus-DP over a D-Sub connector using RS-485 signaling, enabling integration into existing Profibus networks. This simplifies remote monitoring, fault reporting, and parameterization from a centralized control system. Ensure proper bus termination and address configuration to minimize communication errors in noisy industrial environments.
Yes. With 4 inputs and 4 outputs, current sensing and metering capabilities, and wide supply compatibility, the relay is well-suited for feeder protection in panels serving multiple machines or lines. The ability to interface via Profibus-DP facilitates integration with PLCs and SCADA for centralized protection coordination and improved uptime.
Compliance details are provided by the manufacturer and can vary by region. The product listing notes 'Compliances: Contact Manufacturer,' so consult Eaton’s datasheet or regional reps to confirm CE, UL, IP ratings, and other regulatory requirements relevant to your installation and enclosure specifications.
The relay’s removable terminals, compact footprint, and 4x I/O configuration streamline maintenance and future upgrades, reducing panel downtime. Profibus-DP networking provides centralized diagnostics and remote monitoring, improving mean time between failures (MTBF) and enabling faster fault isolation, which translates to lower operating costs and higher system availability.
