FAQs
Begin with ensuring panel space for an 8 DI/9 DO device. Use the removable terminals for quick wiring and leverage the projection mounting method for secure panel integration. Verify the 19-300 Vdc / 40-250 Vac power supply range and ensure shielded Ethernet for Modbus TCP or DNP3 communication. After installation, perform a basic integrity check on sensing inputs and output wiring to minimize commissioning time.
The relay supports Modbus TCP or DNP3 TCP/UDP over Ethernet RJ45, enabling seamless integration with SCADA and DCS systems. This flexibility reduces conduit runs, simplifies remote diagnostics, and supports time-synchronized interlocking through IRIG-B when configured with compatible interfaces.
It provides current protection and metering, voltage protection and metering, differential protection, and power protection and metering. With 2 current sensing inputs and 8 digital inputs plus 9 digital outputs, the unit supports comprehensive control, alarm signaling, and interlocking for transformer protection and reliability.
Yes. The design includes conformal coating on circuit boards to resist moisture and contaminants, paired with removable terminals and a robust projection mounting method. For environments with dust, humidity, or chemical exposure, this approach helps extend service intervals and maintain protection performance.
Eaton’s policy states a one-year warranty from installation or eighteen months from shipment, whichever occurs first. For advanced technical support, consult Eaton’s service channels and request guidance on configuration, commissioning, and remote diagnostics to maximize return on investment.
