Eaton EMR-5000-2A0FB1 Motor Relay - Fiber Optic RTU
Part Number: EMR-5000-2A0FB1
Quick Summary
Eaton EMR-5000-2A0FB1 motor relay is a protective device that guards industrial motors while enabling monitoring and remote communication within drive systems. Engineers often struggle with integrating protection logic, signaling, and diagnostics across scattered motor assets, which can lead to downtime and complex wiring. Certification specifics such as SIL, CE, and IP ratings are not listed in the provided data and should be confirmed with Eaton for your region. By combining 16 digital inputs, 9 digital outputs, and fiber-optic Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU connectivity, this relay simplifies deployment and reduces wiring complexity. The solution also leverages a compatible EMR-4000 base, supporting efficient, scalable motor protection and streamlined maintenance in modern automation environments.

FAQs
The EMR-5000-2A0FB1 is designed to be used with the EMR-4000 base. It features removable terminals and a projection mounting method for straightforward panel integration. Ensure the fiber-optic communication path is correctly terminated and that power is supplied within the 19–300 Vdc / 40–250 Vac ranges. Verify compatibility with your enclosure and mounting rails before commissioning.
Key specs include 19–300 Vdc and 40–250 Vac operating ranges, 16 digital inputs, 9 digital outputs, phase currents of 5A and 1A, and 50/60 Hz operation. Communication is via Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU over Fiber Optic ST. The device supports a motor-protection-centric role with protection, metering, and coordination features.
Yes. The EMR-5000-2A0FB1 supports Zone Selective Interlocking (ZSI) with 1 configured zone interlock, enabling selective tripping to minimize arcs and downtime. This makes it suitable for complex feeder protection schemes and synchronized control in switchgear assemblies and motor control centers.
