FAQs

Begin with verifying the fiber optic Profibus-DP link to your PLC or DCS, then mount the unit using the projection method and connect the removable terminals for quick wiring. Ensure power is supplied within the 19-300Vdc/40-250Vac range and configure 8 digital and 2 analog inputs alongside 9 outputs to align with your protection scheme. Factory settings and fieldbus parameters are typically adjusted via the front panel or an associated configuration tool to minimize downtime.
The ETR-5000-2B0DB1 supports 8 digital inputs, 9 outputs, 2 analog inputs, and 2 analog outputs. It operates from a power supply range of 19-300Vdc or 40-250Vac at 50/60 Hz, with current sensing inputs rated at 5A and 1A. Terminal blocks are removable for easier wiring, and the unit features IRIG-B interface options for time synchronization when required.
Yes, the relay is designed for transformer protection with multiple sensing inputs (power, differential, voltage, and metering) and robust fieldbus communication. Its conformal-coated circuit boards and fiber-optic Profibus-DP interface support operation in environments with electrical noise or contamination, which is common in substations and outdoor installations.
Compliances are currently listed as Contact Manufacturer, meaning certification details should be confirmed with Eaton for your exact installation and region. When specifying this device, verify CE marking, SIL safety considerations, and any IP rating requirements with the supplier to ensure alignment with your plant’s regulatory and safety standards.
The relay helps reduce downtime through faster fault detection, improved protection coordination, and enhanced diagnostics via fiber-based Profibus-DP communication. Its flexible I/O, wide input power range, and removable terminals streamline installation and maintenance, lowering commissioning time and spare-part diversity, which translates to lower total cost of ownership and quicker payback in medium-to-large transformer installations.
