Eaton Specification Sheet - EDR-3000-2B1EA0
Power supply flexibility is achieved with a wide input range of 19-300Vdc and 40-250Vac. This reduces the number of spare units and simplifies rack-and-panel design, cutting stocking costs and wiring errors. In new installations or retrofit projects, it lets you consolidate power supplies and deploy feeders more quickly. Eight inputs and six outputs come with removable terminals, enabling cleaner terminations and faster field wiring. The result is shorter commissioning times and fewer wiring faults during startup, which translates to reduced on-site labor and safer maintenance routines. In distributed feeder panels, technicians can reconfigure I/O without extensive rewiring, improving adaptability to changing processes. One current sensing input supports current protection and metering, delivering precise protection thresholds and energy data. This capability enables better fault discrimination and alarm tuning, lowering nuisance trips and enabling data-driven maintenance planning. With built-in metering, operators can verify load profiles and track feeder performance over shifts or across the plant. Profibus-DP over D-Sub / RS-485 provides seamless fieldbus integration with standard PLCs and SCADA systems. This compatibility minimizes wiring changes and accelerates engineering timelines for new lines or upgrades. For multi-vendor environments, the module acts as a reliable bridge between protection logic and centralized automation strategies. Compact form factor with semi-flush mounting and removable terminals supports easy installation in tight control cabinets. The 7.49 in L, 8.62 in H, 6.82 in W footprint and 5.3 lb weight simplify replacement in existing racks. Overall, the device integrates with other Eaton E-series devices and common panels to streamline maintenance. Warranty and support are straightforward: Eaton's policy provides one year from installation or 18 months from shipment, whichever occurs first. This clarity supports predictable asset lifecycles and service planning, reducing unexpected maintenance costs in mission-critical feeder applications.

FAQs
The device uses removable terminals for field wiring and a Profibus-DP over D-Sub / RS-485 interface. Plan for shielded I/O cables with compatible D-Sub connectors, proper grounding, and secure mounting in a semi-flush enclosure. Ensure the 8 inputs and 6 outputs are wired to the correct feeders and that the power supply connections cover the 19-300Vdc / 40-250Vac range to support both DC and AC sources.
EDR-3000-2B1EA0 supports a universal input range of 19-300Vdc or 40-250Vac, enabling operation from both DC bus and AC mains networks. This reduces the need for multiple power supplies, simplifies stock management, and eases retrofits in mixed-voltage panels. In practice, it lowers installation time and improves reliability across fluctuating plant power conditions.
Yes. The unit features a Profibus-DP interface over D-Sub / RS-485, providing standard, proven communication with PLCs and SCADA systems. This minimizes wiring changes during integration, accelerates project timelines, and supports unified protection logic with centralized automation. It’s well-suited for multi-vendor environments where robust, industrial-grade fieldbus connectivity is required.
The EDR-3000-2B1EA0 offers current protection and metering through its sensing inputs, enabling precise protection settings and fast fault discrimination. This reduces nuisance trips and shortens isolation times, essential for zone selective interlocking and reliable feeder protection in busy production lines. Integrated network communication further enhances coordination with upstream protection schemes and PLC logic.
Eaton provides a warranty of one year from installation or eighteen months from shipment, whichever occurs first. This policy supports predictable asset planning and service budgeting, and Eaton’s technical support resources can assist with commissioning, configuration, and ongoing maintenance to maximize uptime.
