FAQs

The EDR-5000-2A1FA1 is designed for seamless retrofit with Eaton E-Series systems via its 8 input / 11 output configuration and removable terminals. Projection mounting simplifies panel installation, while compatible communication options (Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU over fiber) enable straightforward integration with existing SCADA networks and control rooms. For retrofit projects, verify terminal block spacing and fiber optic media compatibility in the official datasheet.
Key specifications include a broad power supply range of 19-300 Vdc and 40-250 Vac, 50/60 Hz operation, and phase current options of 5A and 1A. The unit has 8 inputs and 11 outputs, with current sensing inputs rated as 1. These figures support accurate protection and metering across diverse feeders, while the fiber optic communication minimizes EMI and enhances data integrity in harsh environments.
Yes. The EDR-5000-2A1FA1 is purpose-built for feeder protection with zone selective interlocking (1) to rapidly isolate faults, minimizing downtime. Its Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU communications over fiber ensures reliable remote monitoring, while its versatile I/O and metering capabilities support comprehensive protection schemes and energy management in manufacturing lines that demand high availability.
Certification details, including CE, SIL, and IP-related ratings, are documented in Eaton's official specification sheets for the EDR-5000-2A1FA1. Since compliances are listed as 'Contact Manufacturer' in the basic data, consult the Eaton datasheet or contact Eaton directly to obtain the precise certificate scope, installation guidelines, and field-relevant compliance statements for your region and application.
The EDR-5000-2A1FA1 carries Eaton's standard warranty policy (25-000) with one year from installation or 18 months from shipment, whichever occurs first.
