Eaton EGR-5000-2B1KB0 Generator Relay - Differential
Part Number: EGR-5000-2B1KB0
Quick Summary
The Eaton generator relay is a robust protection device for generator systems in industrial facilities. Operators often contend with mis-coordination between protection schemes, leading to unnecessary downtime or missed trips in dynamic load conditions. The EGR-5000 series includes Differential Protection, Sensitive Ground Input, Trip Coil Monitor, and a wide input range with 50/60 Hz operation, while conformal-coated boards support reliability in harsh environments and certification considerations such as CE marking and SIL safety levels are coordinated with Eaton. With flexible analog and digital I/O and easy installation, this generator protection relay delivers precise protection, scalable metering, and predictable maintenance costs for data centers, manufacturing lines, and remote generation sites.

The EGR-5000-2B1KB0 provides flexible I/O and protection logic that directly translates to reduced wiring complexity and faster commissioning. Business impact: shorter project timelines and lower panel space requirements, enabling faster deployment of generator protection in new or upgraded facilities. Application: ideal for plant-wide backup power or critical infrastructure where accurate protection timing matters and 8 digital inputs, 2 analog inputs, 2 analog outputs, and 9 digital outputs support complex interlocking schemes and remote signaling. The wide power supply range of 19-300 Vdc and 40-250 Vac, plus 50/60 Hz compatibility, reduces the need for multiple variants across sites, cutting spare-part inventory and maintenance costs. This translates to a measurable improvement in uptime and lifecycle cost. Compatibility and installation advantages include removable terminals and semi-flush mounting for clean panels and quick field servicing. Conformal coating further enhances reliability in harsh environments, while IRIG-B URTD interfaces and Trip Coil Monitor add flexibility for modern protection architectures. The integrated protection suite helps electronics teams meet compliance expectations with fewer field modifications and predictable maintenance windows.

FAQs
The EGR-5000-2B1KB0 fits standard generator protection panel deployments with 19-300Vdc or 40-250Vac power, 50/60 Hz operation, and eight digital inputs plus nine outputs. It uses removable terminals and semi-flush mounting for easy retrofit or new installs, and integrates with existing EGR-5000 base relays to simplify upgrade paths.
Differential protection is a core capability of the EGR-5000-2B1KB0, complemented by a Trip Coil Monitor and Sensitive Ground Input. This combination reduces nuisance trips, improves fault localization, and supports fast, selective tripping—crucial for minimizing generator exposure to faults and protecting turbine/generator assets.
Yes. With 50/60 Hz operation, a wide 19-300Vdc/40-250Vac power range, 8DI/9DO, and IRIG-B/URTD interface options, it aligns with centralized monitoring schemes and SCADA systems. The rugged, conformal-coated boards help reliability in tough environments typical of data centers, remote plants, and industrial floors.
Compliances are coordinated with the manufacturer, and typical generator protection relays address common standards like CE marking and SIL safety considerations. For Eaton EGR-5000-2B1KB0, confirmation of specific certifications should be requested from Eaton to ensure alignment with project requirements and site regulations.
The product follows Eaton's warranty policy: one year from installation or eighteen months from shipment, whichever comes first. The design supports long service intervals through robust hardware, removable terminals for straightforward field servicing, and conformal-coated boards that resist harsh conditions, reducing maintenance frequency and total cost of ownership.
