Quick Summary

Eaton distribution relay EDR-5000-2B0EA1 provides robust feeder protection and metering for industrial power systems. Operators often struggle to align protection logic with legacy controls, disparate maintenance data, and the costs of unplanned downtime. Compliance details vary by installation; verify CE, SIL, IP ratings and other local certifications with the manufacturer. In practice, the device offers Profibus-DP communication over RS-485, expanding network visibility and enabling scalable feeder protection. This translates to improved maintenance planning, faster commissioning, and lower total cost of ownership.

Power-supply flexibility is built-in with a range of 19-300 Vdc and 40-250 Vac, enabling operation across mixed plant power networks. This flexibility reduces component counts and minimizes downtime during voltage transients, improving uptime for critical feeders. It is well suited for protection schemes on manufacturing lines and substation feeders where voltage conditions vary by site. Input/output architecture includes 16 inputs and 11 outputs with removable terminals and Projection mounting. This simplifies wiring, reduces commissioning time, and makes field replacement straightforward, which lowers maintenance costs. Use cases include complex feeder protection logic and zone selective interlocking in compact control cabinets. Profibus-DP over D-Sub / RS-485 communication and IRIG-B Trip Coil Monitor option provide network readiness and precise timing. Realize seamless PLC/SCADA integration and accurate protection coordination across distributed assets. This supports remote diagnostics and coordinated protection in plant networks, improving response times and operator visibility. Protection and metering capabilities span Power Protection and Metering, Voltage Protection and Metering, and Current Protection and Metering. This consolidated data set accelerates fault analysis, enables energy accounting, and improves protection coordination. Applications include feeder protection in factories and substations needing precise energy use profiles and fast fault isolation. Zone selective interlocking and a robust mechanical design enhance reliability in high-density switchgear. Projection mounting and removable terminals speed installation and service, reducing downtime during upgrades or maintenance. This combination is ideal for substations and industrial power distribution demanding fast, selective isolation.

FAQs

Installation starts with wiring the 16 inputs and 11 outputs through removable terminals, then connecting Profibus-DP over RS-485 to the PLC/SCADA network. The device supports IRIG-B Trip Coil Monitor as an optional timing aid. During commissioning, ensure the power supply is within 19-300 Vdc or 40-250 Vac and set up zone selective interlocking to coordinate protection across feeders. This setup minimizes miscoordination and shortens fault-clearing times.
Key specifications include a universal power range of 19-300 Vdc / 40-250 Vac, 50/60 Hz operation, 16 inputs and 11 outputs, 1 current-sensing input, and zone selective interlocking. Communication is via Profibus-DP over RS-485, with optional IRIG-B timing. These features support comprehensive Power, Voltage, and Current protection and metering, providing synchronized protection and precise energy data for improved decision-making.
Yes. With 16 inputs, 11 outputs, zone selective interlocking, and Profibus-DP communication, the relay is well-suited for complex feeder protection schemes, fast fault isolation, and centralized monitoring. Its metering capabilities support energy accounting, while the modular I/O simplifies integration into dense switchgear and plant networks common in substations and manufacturing facilities.
Compliance details are provided by the manufacturer and can vary by installation. The Datasheet indicates Compliances require manufacturer confirmation. For your project, contact Eaton to confirm CE, SIL, IP ratings or other regional certifications applicable to your location and safety standards before deployment.
The integrated protection and metering reduce downtime by accelerating fault diagnosis and isolation. Seamless PLC/SCADA integration and RS-485 networking enable remote diagnostics and coordinated protection, lowering maintenance trips and accelerating commissioning. Overall, this leads to faster startup, improved uptime, and lower total cost of ownership across feeder networks.
