Eaton Distribution Relay EDR-5000-2A1DA1 - Profibus-DP
Part Number: EDR-5000-2A1DA1
Quick Summary
Eaton distribution relay EDR-5000-2A1DA1 provides centralized feeder protection for industrial power systems using Profibus-DP. Engineers often struggle to integrate protection relays into fieldbus networks while maintaining reliability and ease of maintenance. Compliances are listed as 'Contact Manufacturer'—verify region-specific certifications such as CE, SIL, and IP ratings with Eaton for your installation. In practice, this solution supports robust feeder protection and metering with 8 inputs and 11 outputs, enabling precise interlocking and monitoring; the Profibus-DP communication over fiber optic helps maintain performance in electrically noisy plant environments. This model aligns with core feeder protection needs while delivering value through compatibility and scalable protection workflows.

Eaton Specification Sheet - EDR-5000-2A1DA1
Feature → Business Impact → Application: 8 inputs and 11 outputs enable complex protection schemes and zoned interlocking, improving fault isolation and reducing MTTR in distribution panels. This translates to faster fault diagnosis, lower downtime, and a safer, more reliable plant operation for automations that demand precise protection coordination and metering. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Profibus-DP over fiber optic ST provides EMI immunity and longer communication distances, improving network reliability in harsh industrial environments and enabling seamless integration with existing E-series relay architectures. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Sensing inputs cover voltage, current, and power protection/metering, delivering accurate data for trend analysis, energy optimization, and compliance reporting in feeders and switchgear. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Projection mounting and removable terminals simplify installation, retrofit, and maintenance, reducing field labor and enabling faster upgrades in control rooms and switchgear booths. Feature → Business Impact → Application: I/O options such as Sensitive Ground Input, Trip Coil Monitor, and IRIG-B support enhance safety interlocks and timing accuracy for critical loads, improving system coordination with existing protection schemes. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Zone selective interlocking (one) supports selective feeder clearance, minimizing equipment stress and improving ride-through during faults, which is particularly valuable in multi-feeder distributions and data center environments.
