Eaton EGR-5000-2B1LA0 Generator protection relay - 50/60 Hz
Part Number: EGR-5000-2B1LA0
Quick Summary
The Eaton EGR-5000-2B1LA0 generator relay provides robust protection for industrial generator sets. Engineers often wrestle with ensuring reliable protection across voltage variations and fast trip coordination. While the data lists compliance as ‘Contact Manufacturer’ and does not publish explicit CE, SIL, or IP ratings, it’s essential to confirm certifications with Eaton during procurement. In practice, the device integrates with SCADA via Mbus TCP or DNP3 TCP/UDP over fiber and offers flexible I/O to simplify wiring and commissioning. This combination translates to improved uptime, safer operation, and tangible business value for critical power systems.

The 8 digital inputs and 9 outputs enable comprehensive control and protection sequencing, reducing external wiring complexity and enabling precise trip logic. This translates to faster fault isolation and improved safety, especially in multi-generator configurations used in critical facilities. The 2 analog inputs and 2 analog outputs support on-board metering and protection curves, delivering clearer visibility into generator health and faster decision making for maintenance teams. With a wide power range (19-300 Vdc, 40-250 Vac) and 50/60 Hz compatibility, the unit fits diverse genset architectures, easing retrofits and new installs alike. M-Bus TCP or DNP3 TCP/UDP over LC duplex fiber Enet enables secure SCADA integration, enabling remote monitoring and reducing现场 visits. URTD interface, Trip Coil Monitor, and Sensitive Ground Input options enhance trip reliability and fault discrimination, aligning with zone selective interlocking to improve selectivity and reduce nuisance trips. The overall I/O flexibility supports future expansion and simplified commissioning, delivering a lower total cost of ownership for generator protection relays in demanding industrial environments.
