Eaton EGR-5000-2A1FB0 Generator Relay - 50/60 Hz
Part Number: EGR-5000-2A1FB0
Quick Summary
Eaton generator relay provides robust generator protection for critical power systems, enabling reliable auto-start and trip coordination. Engineers often struggle with coordinating protection schemes across diverse inputs and remote monitoring, risking unnecessary outages. SIL, CE and IP ratings are common benchmarks; confirm exact certifications with the manufacturer for your region. This model supports Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU over fiber and offers removable terminals for fast field wiring; it is designed to operate over 19-300 Vdc or 40-250 Vac. In practice, this translates to faster commissioning, easier maintenance, and improved protection coordination. The product’s rugged electronics and conformal coating further enhance reliability in harsh environments, aligning with broader business goals of uptime and efficiency.
