Feature → Business Impact → Application: The dual feeder configuration with an 80/50 A trip rating enables two independent power paths from a single enclosure, reducing wiring complexity while preserving system reliability in manufacturing lines and conveyors. This translates to lower wiring errors, faster assembly, and easier future expansions for machine builders. Application: ideal for compact packaging lines and material handling systems where space is at a premium. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The HFD circuit breaker provides swift fault isolation and robust protection, cutting downtime and simplifying compliance testing during commissioning. Application: suitable for machines requiring dependable overload protection within tight control panels. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Slider handle operation allows quick manual switching and safer maintenance sequences, improving technician productivity and reducing risk during panel servicing. Application: beneficial in high-load motor drives and automated lines with frequent start/stop cycles. Feature → Business Impact → Application: 12-inch unit size paired with 22 in depth, 16 in height, and 25 in width yields a compact footprint for OEMs needing denser control cabinets, while preserving serviceability. Application: ideal for new builds and upgrades in compact automation spaces. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The 1-year warranty (or 18 months from shipment) provides a predictable support window and reduces total cost of ownership, giving procurement teams confidence in maintenance planning. Application: valuable for reliability-focused production environments and long-term asset management.

FAQs
For typical installation, allocate space for dual feeder wiring and ensure panel depth accommodates a 22 in length with a 25 in width enclosure. Use the slider handle for swift mechanical engagement and verify UL Listed compliance during commissioning. Confirm alignment with existing motor starter blocks and ensure knockout patterns match the FDF2JF12 footprint to avoid rework.
The dual feeder configuration enables independent power paths, reducing parallel conductors and shortening wiring runs. This improves fault isolation and simplifies conductor routing, which in turn lowers insulation material usage and potential heat buildup. It is particularly advantageous in packaging lines and conveyors where space is limited and quick fault location is critical.
Yes. The unit’s 80/50 A trip rating and HFD circuit breaker provide reliable protection for motor loads commonly found in process automation. Its compact 12-inch size supports dense panel layouts, while UL Listing ensures compliance with safety standards. It pairs well with standard industrial automation architectures and simplifies integration with programmable logic controllers and motor starters.
The FDF2JF12 is UL Listed, indicating compliance with recognized safety standards for electrical equipment in control panels. This certification helps with customer audits, serialization, and maintenance planning by providing a clear safety baseline for panel assemblies and motor control centers in industrial environments.
Maintenance benefits include faster diagnostics thanks to clear fault isolation from the HFD breaker, reduced wiring errors due to streamlined dual-feeder routing, and easier future upgrades because of the compact footprint. The predictable warranty and durable construction translate to lower total cost of ownership and improved uptime across OEM production lines and aftermarket service contracts.
