Eaton EDR-3000-2B0EB0 Distribution Relay - Profibus-DP

Power flexibility is a practical advantage of the EDR-3000-2B0EB0. With a power supply range of 19-300 VDC and 40-250 VAC, this relay can be installed across a wide spectrum of motor loads and control circuits without extra adapters. The 8 inputs and 6 outputs deliver ample I/O for feeder protection schemes, helping engineers consolidate panels and reduce wiring complexity. This configuration supports efficient commissioning, lowers stocking costs, and accelerates changes in evolving automation layouts in manufacturing and process plants. Profibus-DP over D-Sub/RS-485 provides robust, industry-standard communication between the relay and master controllers. The result is faster fault diagnosis, better visibility of feeder conditions, and simpler remote updates during runtime. In practice, integrators leverage this capability to implement zone-selective interlocking and more precise protection coordination. This background connectivity also enhances diagnostics in machine cells and packaging lines, where downtime has a direct impact on throughput and service-level targets. Installation practicality is enhanced by semi-flush mounting and removable terminals, which streamline field wiring, testing, and future upgrades. The conformal coating option protects circuit boards in challenging environments, including dust, humidity, and temperature swings common in industrial facilities. Together, these features translate to shorter commissioning windows, easier maintenance, and greater system resilience when adding feeders to existing automation architectures. Warranty and compatibility support long-term value. Eaton offers a one-year warranty from installation or 18 months from shipment, to help protect capital investments. The EDR-3000-2B0EB0 integrates with a base relay (EDR-3000), 1 current-sensing input, and Trip Coil Monitor options, ensuring coherent protection schemes over Profibus-DP networks. This design provides a scalable, maintenance-friendly feeder solution that aligns with efficiency goals and reduces lifecycle costs in industrial facilities.
