FAQs
The EDR-5000-2B1DA0 uses Profibus-DP over fiber optic ST for robust, interference-free communications. It supports networked protection and metering data transfer, enabling seamless integration with existing PLC/SCADA architectures. When planning, verify fiber connectivity, network topology, and compatible master/slave configurations per the Eaton specification sheet.
This model accepts 19-300 Vdc and 40-250 Vac at 50/60 Hz, providing flexibility across mixed DC and AC power environments. Installation benefits include fewer power-supply variants, simplified wiring, and easier retrofits in mixed-plant environments, reducing stocking needs and potential wiring errors.
Yes, the unit supports Zone Selective Interlocking (ZSI) with a reported capability value of 1. ZSI enables precise feeder coordination during faults, reducing unnecessary trips and lowering arc-flash exposure for maintenance teams. This is particularly valuable in multi-feeder switchgear and large distribution systems.
The device provides 16 inputs and 11 outputs, plus sensing inputs for voltage, current, and power protection and metering. This supports comprehensive protection schemes, real-time metering, fault diagnostics, and energy reporting, which are essential for compliance, performance analytics, and energy optimization projects.
