Eaton EDR-3000-2B1EA1 Distribution Relay - Profibus-DP RS485
Part Number: EDR-3000-2B1EA1
Quick Summary
Eaton distribution relay protects feeders and provides control for industrial automation panels and process lines. Engineers often struggle with integrating protection relays into Profibus-DP networks while managing varying supply voltages. Compliance is listed as 'Contact Manufacturer'; verify CE/UL or other ratings on the Eaton specification sheet. Check the datasheet for exact certifications and compatibility. By combining wide input ranges with Profibus connectivity, this device reduces wiring, speeds commissioning, and supports scalable protection schemes across multi-panel deployments.

Selling Policy 25-000 - Distribution and Control Products and Services
Flexible power range and dual-rail compatibility enable a single device to operate across 19-300 VDC and 40-250 VAC, simplifying selection and reducing part variety while supporting mixed-voltage feeders in the same cabinet. Feature → Business Impact → Application: streamlines procurement and lowers inventory costs; Application: plant-wide feeder protection with fewer spare parts needed. The 8 inputs and 6 outputs deliver higher I/O density for centralized protection and metering, enabling faster diagnostic actions and reduced panel wiring. Feature → Business Impact → Application: minimizes install time and potential wiring errors; Application: shared protection logic for multiple feeders in a single rack. Profibus-DP over D-Sub/RS-485 ensures seamless integration into existing control networks, lowering commissioning time and enabling scalable data exchange with PLCs. Feature → Business Impact → Application: accelerates project timelines; Application: turnkey integration in process and manufacturing lines. Projection mounting with removable terminals simplifies installation and maintenance, reducing field labor and enabling quick replacements. Feature → Business Impact → Application: lowers maintenance costs; Application: rapid swaps during downtime windows. The current sensing inputs support current protection and metering with configurable phase currents (5A/1A), delivering precise fault detection and energy monitoring. Feature → Business Impact → Application: improves selectivity and reduces nuisance trips; Application: accurate feeder fault localization in complex power systems. A robust protection device with a one-year to eighteen-month warranty window and Eaton’s support ecosystem provides peace of mind for ongoing operation and service planning.

FAQs
The EDR-3000-2B1EA1 supports Profibus-DP over D-Sub / RS-485, enabling straightforward integration with standard PLCs and networked protection schemes. With eight inputs and six outputs, it can be wired to protect multiple feeders and deliver metering data across the bus, reducing commissioning time and enabling centralized monitoring.
Plan for Projection mounting and utilize removable terminals to simplify wiring and service. The device supports a wide power supply range (19-300 VDC, 40-250 VAC) and 50/60 Hz operation, allowing placement in mixed-voltage panels. Ensure proper clearance for connectors and provide Profibus-DP cabling with RS-485 transceivers as needed.
The unit provides current sensing inputs (one channel) with selectable phase currents at 5A and 1A, enabling current protection and metering. It functions as a feeder distribution relay with eight inputs and six outputs, supporting zone-selective features and monitoring of feeder conditions within a single device.
Warranty follows Eaton Selling Policy 25-000: one year from installation or eighteen months from shipment, whichever occurs first. For ongoing support, consult Eaton’s datasheets and the published specification sheets, which detail service options and recommended maintenance schedules.
Refer to Eaton’s official downloads: the EDR-3000-2B1EA1 specification sheet and related brochures cover wiring, installation, and network configuration. The product page also links to the protective-relays brochure and utility policy documents for warranty and compliance guidance.
