Dual feeder design with an HFD circuit breaker and a 125/40 A trip rating delivers scalable load distribution and motor protection. This configuration reduces wiring complexity, minimizes fault propagation, and enables phased capacity expansion without panel replacement. Ideal for packaging lines, conveyors, and machine centers that require easy future capacity without costly upgrades. Paragraph two: 18-inch unit size with a 22 in depth, 16 in height, and 25 in width yields a compact footprint that frees valuable panel space and simplifies enclosure layouts, cutting installation time. This is particularly beneficial for retrofit projects in space-constrained facilities and OEM panel builds demanding tight integration. Paragraph three: Slider handle operation provides quick, safe access to feeders and terminations, reducing maintenance time and exposure to live circuits. Field service and routine inspections across manufacturing lines gain faster turnarounds and improved safety. Paragraph four: UL Listed certification supports compliance with safety and performance standards, accelerating procurement cycles and supplier qualification in regulated environments. Paragraph five: The comprehensive spec package, including catalog number FDF2ME18, dual feed capability, and a standard warranty, supports clear design decisions and predictable asset management for OEMs and integrators.
