Quick Summary

Transformer relay from Eaton provides robust transformer protection for industrial power systems. The challenge is integrating protective relays with Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU networks while keeping diagnostics accurate and actionable. This model supports Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU over RS-485, 8 digital inputs, 9 outputs, and a wide power range (19-300 Vdc, 40-250 Vac) for diverse plant rails. Compliances are listed as Contact Manufacturer, so confirm CE/SIL/IP with Eaton for your region. Warranty aligns with Eaton policy, offering a one-year coverage from installation or 18 months from shipment. By leveraging these capabilities, engineers reduce external IO needs, shorten commissioning, and boost transformer reliability across automation systems.

Eight digital inputs and nine digital outputs, plus two current sensing inputs, provide rich local I/O for protection and monitoring without external IO modules. This reduces panel footprint, simplifies wiring, and shortens commissioning time, delivering measurable savings in field labor. In transformer protection applications, the built-in I/O handles status indication, interlock signals, and alarm relays directly at the device. Modbus RTU or DNP3 RTU over RS-485 enables straightforward integration with SCADA, PI System, or energy management software. Business impact: centralized monitoring and data logging without bespoke interfaces, which lowers integration risk and accelerates downtime analysis. Application: OEM and industrial plants requiring reliable remote diagnostics across distributed protection relays. Wide power supply range of 19-300 Vdc and 40-250 Vac with 50/60 Hz support simplifies field wiring and reduces the need for multiple power rails. Impact: fewer transformers and power supplies, lower installation costs, and easier compliance with diverse plant power architectures. Application: system transformers and substations in manufacturing environments where supply conditions vary. Conformal coated circuit boards and removable terminals improve field reliability in harsh environments and simplify maintenance. Impact: improved PCB protection against moisture, dust, and humidity, plus faster terminal rework in the event of upgrades. Application: outdoor or dirty environments and retrofit projects where uptime matters. I/O options such as Sensitive Ground Input, IRIG-B time reference, URTD interface, and Trip Coil Monitor support advanced protection schemes and time synchronization. Impact: higher protection accuracy and easier integration with control systems. Application: zone selective interlocking and protection coordination in critical transformer installations. Warranty and support: One-year warranty from installation or 18 months from shipment; ensures a supplier-backed maintenance window.
