Eaton EDR-5000-2B1GB1 Distribution Relay - Conformal Coated

Feature: 16 inputs and 11 outputs provide a dense I/O canvas for protection schemes. Benefit: Enables more granular protection coordination and rich metering data without adding external gateways. Application: Feeder protection panels in medium- to large-size switchgear. The result is faster fault detection and reduced miscoordination in complex layouts. Feature: Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU communication over RS-485 via D-Sub connectors. Benefit: Seamless integration with plant SCADA and historian systems, enabling remote monitoring and control. Application: Industrial networks requiring robust telemetry and centralized diagnostics. This reduces onsite trips and speeds up maintenance planning. Feature: Power supply range of 19–300 Vdc and 40–250 Vac with a 50/60 Hz rating. Benefit: Broad compatibility with global mains and DC bus systems, simplifying sourcing and installation. Application: Global deployments where voltage profiles vary between locations, reducing the need for multiple SKUs. The outcome is lower inverter/ups footprint and fewer spare parts. Feature: Conformal coated circuit boards. Benefit: Increased resistance to moisture, dust, and chemical exposure, improving reliability in harsh environments. Application: Plant floors, outdoors, or coastal facilities where humidity and contaminants are concerns. This supports longer service intervals and lower maintenance costs. Feature: Projection mounting with removable terminals. Benefit: Faster, easier installation and service, plus straightforward field wiring checks. Application: Feeder modules and panel retrofits where space is limited and servicing windows are tight. The improvement is reduced commissioning time and safer, cleaner wiring practices. Feature: I/O options including voltage sensing inputs and Zone Selective Interlocking (ZSI) capability. Benefit: Enhanced protection coordination and selective tripping across feeders. Application: Industrial power networks requiring precise fault isolation and minimized circuit outages. The practical effect is higher system availability and predictable outage management.
