Eaton EGR-5000-2A1DA0 Generator Relay - IRIG-B, Trip Coil Monitor
Part Number: EGR-5000-2A1DA0
Quick Summary
Eaton generator relay is a reliable protection device that senses power conditions and faults to guard generator sets in industrial environments. In practice, engineers face downtime and nuisance trips when protection systems are inflexible or hard to integrate with existing automation. Certification details are not listed; in your region, verify CE marking for electrical safety, IP ratings for enclosure protection, and SIL readiness where required by your safety standards. This relay's Profibus-DP over fiber optic, IRIG-B timing, and 16 digital inputs with 9 outputs streamline protection logic, network integration, and alarm signaling. From a business perspective, the solution reduces wiring, simplifies maintenance, and supports scalable protection for utilities, data centers, and manufacturing facilities.
