Eaton ER-FP5KRETROKIT Arc Flash Retrofit - Projection
Part Number: ER-FP5KRETROKIT
Quick Summary
Eaton arc flash relay point sensor ER-FP5KRETROKIT enables FP-5000 to retrofit with the EDR-5000 in protection panels. Upgrading legacy protection often means compatibility gaps and downtime that disrupts critical processes. In the field, engineers routinely verify certifications such as CE, UL, and IP ratings to ensure safe operation in harsh environments; SIL compliance is also considered for functional safety. For this retrofit kit, certification details should be confirmed with Eaton, but adopting this solution supports fast, field-friendly upgrades without replacing the entire protection scheme. The kit also preserves compatibility with FP-5000 and EDR-5000 ecosystems, helping keep spare parts inventories lean while maintaining protective performance.

Feature ā Business Impact ā Application: Retrofit plate compatibility enables FP-5000 to connect with EDR-5000 while preserving the existing protection logic. This reduces field labor and minimizes downtime during upgrades, especially in critical production lines. Application: Ideal for plant modernization projects upgrading legacy FP-5000 relays to EDR-5000 panels. Feature ā Business Impact ā Application: Projection panel mounting allows seamless integration within standard enclosures without custom fabrication, lowering installation risk. Application: Suitable for new and retrofit installations in E-series protection schemes where panel realignment is limited. Feature ā Business Impact ā Application: Lightweight design (1 lb) simplifies handling and reduces crane or crew requirements during field installs. Application: Beneficial for in-field replacements and relocation tasks. Feature ā Business Impact ā Application: Compact footprint (10 in length Ć 8 in height Ć 1 in wide) fits narrow or crowded panel spaces. Application: Enables retrofits in space-constrained electrical rooms. Feature ā Business Impact ā Application: Warranty coverage (one year from installation or 18 months from shipment) reduces ownership risk and support costs. Application: Improves long-term total cost of ownership. Feature ā Business Impact ā Application: Confirmed compatibility with E-series EDR-5000 ensures continuity of protection and spare-parts planning. Application: Streamlines procurement and maintenance planning for FP to EDR migrations.

FAQs
Installation involves mounting the retrofit plate to align FP-5000 with the EDR-5000 projection panel, ensuring correct mechanical fit and electrical continuity. The process minimizes enclosure modifications and preserves the protection logic of the FP-5000 while enabling operation with EDR-5000 panels. Follow the Eaton specification guidelines for precise steps and torque values.
The kit features a 10 inch length, 8 inch height, and 1 inch width, with a total product weight of 1 pound. The UPC for quick catalog lookup is 786679185377. These compact dimensions support installation in tighter panels while maintaining robust mechanical stability.
This kit is designed for FP-5000 to EDR-5000 retrofit projects, enabling FP-5000 relays to interface with the EDR-5000 projection panel system. It is used in electrical protection and circuit control applications where upgrading protection hardware is required without replacing the entire assembly.
Certifications for ER-FP5KRETROKIT are to be confirmed with the manufacturer. When evaluating for compliance, engineers typically verify CE, UL, and IP ratings, and SIL considerations where applicable to ensure safe operation in your environment. Always consult Eaton to obtain the latest certification status for your region.
The retrofit minimizes downtime by enabling a field upgrade path from FP-5000 to EDR-5000 without a full relay replacement. This preserves protective logic, reduces spare parts inventory, and aligns with ongoing maintenance budgets. The bundled warranty (one year from installation or 18 months from shipment) further mitigates risk during the transition.
