Eaton EGR-5000-2A0KB1 Generator Relay - Generator Protection
Part Number: EGR-5000-2A0KB1
Quick Summary
Eaton generator relay is used to protect generator systems by monitoring signals and executing fast trips. In mission-critical facilities, even brief protection gaps can trigger outages, equipment damage, and costly downtime. Certification details should be verified directly with the manufacturer, with expected coverage often including CE conformity and IP-rated durability where applicable. Designed for generator protection, it integrates with differential and power protection schemes to support uptime and safe operation across 50/60 Hz systems. The device accepts 19-300 Vdc and 40-250 Vac, while managing diverse protection logic with 16 digital inputs and 9 outputs, enabling robust control in varied plant environments.

The EGR-5000-2A0KB1 offers 16 digital inputs and 9 digital outputs plus two current sensing inputs, enabling complex protection logic and precise trip coordination across generator banks. This broad I/O supports zone-selective interlocking, differential protection, and metering, reducing miscoordination and improving overall plant reliability in industrial facilities. It is well suited for generator protection, data center power systems, and utility interfaces where accurate protection decisions drive uptime. The model handles 19-300 Vdc and 40-250 Vac power supply ranges at 50/60 Hz, simplifying commissioning and enabling retrofit projects without multiple relays. Projection mounting and removable terminals streamline installation and field service, minimizing downtime during panel upgrades. I/O options such as IRIG-B, Trip Coil Monitor, and URTD Interface enable synchronization and remote monitoring, enhancing coordination with governors and trip devices. Conformal coating supports durability in dusty, humid, or harsh environments, while zone selective interlocking (1 channel) improves protection coordination in multi-generator configurations. A reliable warranty policy—one year from installation or 18 months from shipment—adds business assurance for ongoing maintenance.
