FAQs
Position the unit with its semi-flush mounting as specified, ensuring access to the removable terminals for maintenance. Plan for eight digital inputs and nine digital outputs wiring, and allocate space for fiber optic cables used by the Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU communications. Verify environmental conditions to leverage the board’s conformal coating in damp or dusty settings.
The ETR-4000-2A2FB0 supports Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU communications over fiber optic ST, enabling integration with SCADA, DCS, and protection panels. It operates on 50/60 Hz and accepts 19–300 VDC or 40–250 VAC power, simplifying interface with existing plant power rails. This setup minimizes wiring changes while enabling remote monitoring and diagnostics.
Yes. The relay includes Sensing inputs for Current Protection and Metering and supports Differential Protection logic, along with Zone Selective Interlocking (2). This combination enables accurate fault detection, rapid isolation, and coordinated protection across transformer banks, reducing outage duration and minimizing collateral damage in feeders and substations.
Publicly listed compliance details are not provided in the specification. For exact certifications such as CE, IP ratings, or SIL readiness, contact Eaton or your distributor to obtain the official certificate documents and ensure alignment with your plant’s regulatory requirements before deployment.
Main maintenance benefits include removable terminals for quick wiring checks, conformal-coated boards for rugged environments, and a compact, integrated I/O set that reduces panel complexity. These features, plus remote capability via fiber communications, contribute to faster fault resolution, lower maintenance costs, and a favorable return on investment through improved transformer uptime.
