Eaton EDR-3000-2C1IB0 Distribution Relay - RS-485 & Ethernet

Power and I/O flexibility enables 4 inputs and 4 outputs with removable terminals and a wide power range of 19-300 Vdc or 40-250 Vac, simplifying installation across mixed plant environments and reducing wiring costs for feeder protection. Business impact includes faster commissioning, easier maintenance, and lower total installed cost in new builds or upgrades for industrial panels. Application: ideal for feeders in switchgear, industrial automation cabinets, and substations where reliable, configurable protection is required. Communications and integration are enabled by Modbus RTU over RS-485 and Modbus/DNP3 over Ethernet TCP/IP, plus IRIG-B input for precise time synchronization. Business impact includes seamless SCADA/HMI integration, remote diagnostics, and improved data accuracy for fault analysis. Application: suitable for plants pursuing centralized monitoring and predictive maintenance strategies. Protection and sensing capabilities rely on current protection and metering with 5A/1A phase current inputs and 4 IO channels, supporting Zone Selective Interlocking and a flexible I/O scheme. Business impact includes enhanced selective tripping, reduced fault energization, and lower energy losses during normal operation. Application: effective in high-density electrical rooms and OEM panel solutions. Durability and installation benefits come from conformal coating on circuit boards, removable terminals, and semi-flush mounting for robust operation in harsh environments. Business impact includes longer service life in dusty or humid facilities, simplified field servicing, and faster rebuilds. Application: substations, outdoor panels, and manufacturing floors. Feeder protection reliability is reinforced by a compact 4-in/4-out topology with clear labeling and zone interlocking features, enabling straightforward integration into existing protection schemes. Business impact includes improved system stability, easier testing, and quicker retrofits. Application: new builds or upgrades where reliability and fast fault isolation matter.
