Eaton Specification Sheet - EDR-3000-2B1GB0
Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU over D-Sub RS-485 is supported, enabling straightforward integration with existing SCADA and historian systems. This translates to faster configuration, centralized monitoring, and quicker fault isolation in feeder protection schemes. Power supply range of 19-300 Vdc or 40-250 Vac lets the unit operate across diverse plant power architectures without additional transformers. In practice, this reduces wiring complexity and stock requirements while supporting 50/60 Hz operation. The 8 inputs and 6 outputs, along with a single current sensing input, provide flexible control and protection sequencing for complex feeder layouts. I/O options such as Sensitive Ground Input and Trip Coil Monitor enhance safety and fault diagnostics, while conformal coating and removable terminals simplify field servicing. Semi-flush mounting and the 7.49 in x 8.62 in x 6.82 in enclosure size balance ruggedness with install convenience. Phase current options of 5A and 1A enable precise protection coordination across multi-feeder configurations, contributing to lower fault loss and faster restoration.

FAQs
Begin by mounting the device in a semi-flush enclosure and securing the removable terminals for easy field maintenance. Connect the eight inputs and six outputs according to the feeder protection scheme, and route the Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU RS-485 communication lines (D-Sub) to the control system. Ensure the power supply is within 19-300 VDC or 40-250 VAC and that the system frequency is 50/60 Hz. Verify the Sensitive Ground Input and Trip Coil Monitor configurations during commissioning to ensure accurate fault sensing and safe operation.
The EDR-3000-2B1GB0 supports Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU over D-Sub RS-485, enabling direct integration with common SCADA and protection schemes. With 8 inputs and 6 outputs, you can align I/O to existing feeder protection logic and trigger appropriate trips or alarms. The removable terminals simplify wiring changes during upgrades, and the conformal-coated circuitry enhances reliability in industrial environments.
Yes. The unit operates at 50/60 Hz and accepts a wide power range of 19-300 VDC or 40-250 VAC, allowing compatibility across different plant power systems. This flexibility helps reduce transformer needs and simplifies retrofits. Ensure the chosen voltage matches the control power requirements for consistent protection and accurate metering across feeders.
Certification details are not specified in the provided data. For CE, SIL, or IP ratings, consult Eaton or your regional distributor to confirm the exact certifications applicable to your installation, configuration, and jurisdiction. It’s common for protection relays to require region-specific approvals, so obtaining formal confirmation is recommended before procurement.
Deploying the EDR-3000-2B1GB0 can reduce downtime through faster fault isolation and centralized monitoring via RS-485 communications, lowering unplanned outage durations. The conformal coating and removable terminals simplify field maintenance, while the wide input range minimizes wiring changes during upgrades. With a one-year warranty (or 18 months from shipment, whichever occurs first), you gain predictable support and lower lifecycle costs as part of a broader protection strategy.
