Part number
EDR-3000-2B1GB1

Quick Summary

The Eaton distribution relay EDR-3000-2B1GB1 provides feeder protection for industrial power systems. This solution helps address fragmented protection schemes and complicating remote monitoring across multiple feeders by enabling centralized, networked supervision via Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU over RS-485. Exact certifications are specified by Eaton; consult the datasheet for CE marking, SIL ratings where applicable, and IP protection details. With Modbus RTU and DNP3 RTU compatibility, it fits neatly into modern automation architectures, delivering reliable protection and scalable integration across plant floor networks.

The unit offers robust interoperability through Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU over RS-485, reducing custom wiring and enabling direct integration with existing SCADA and historian systems, which accelerates commissioning and minimizes configuration errors. This translates into improved protection coordination and faster fault isolation in industrial facilities. A broad power supply range of 19-300 Vdc and 40-250 Vac (50/60 Hz) allows universal compatibility across mixed AC/DC feeders, cutting spare-part inventory and simplifying procurement for mixed-portfolio plants. With eight inputs and six outputs, removable terminals, and projection mounting, installation is straightforward in panel interiors, enabling flexible protection schemes and easy retrofits. The device includes current sensing inputs and options such as Trip Coil Monitor and Sensitive Ground Input to tailor protection logic to site requirements, supporting scalable automation in manufacturing and process environments. Conformal coating on circuit boards enhances reliability in harsh industrial environments, reducing maintenance needs and extending mean time between failures. A one-year warranty (or eighteen months from shipment, per Eaton policy) provides long-term confidence, while the compact form factor and clear wiring simplify serviceability and downtime reduction in critical production lines.

FAQs

The EDR-3000-2B1GB1 uses removable terminals and a projection mounting style, which simplifies panel installation and field wiring. It supports Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU over RS-485 for easy integration with existing SCADA systems. With eight inputs and six outputs, engineers can configure protection logic to match feeder architectures and minimize wiring complexity during retrofit projects.
Key specs include a power supply range of 19-300 Vdc and 40-250 Vac (50/60 Hz), eight inputs, six outputs, and phase currents rated at 5A or 1A. The unit provides current sensing inputs for protection and metering, plus the ability to use Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU over RS-485 for remote monitoring and control within plant networks.
Yes. The EDR-3000-2B1GB1 is designed for feeder protection with flexible I/O, current sensing, and communication options that integrate with existing automation architectures. Its projection mounting and removable terminals simplify installation in control panels, while RS-485 communication supports scalable data exchange with SCADA, historians, and protection relays for coordinated protection schemes.
The provided data shows Compliances as 'Contact Manufacturer.' For exact certifications such as CE marks or SIL/IP ratings, refer to the Eaton specification sheet or contact Eaton support. The downloadable datasheet linked in the product data is the best source for official certification status and any country-specific compliance.
Conformal coating on circuit boards improves reliability in harsh environments, reducing maintenance cycles. The combination of modular I/O, removable terminals, and easy RS-485 integration lowers field wiring errors and commissioning time. A standard warranty (one year or up to eighteen months from shipment) provides assurance, while integration with existing control systems can shorten downtime, improving return on investment over the life of the protection scheme.
