Feature → Business Impact → Application: The FRF1A12 offers a 12-inch size with 22 inch depth and a 25 inch width, enabling installation in compact panels and tight machine layouts while preserving access for routine maintenance. This footprint translates to a lower enclosure cost and easier retrofits in existing lines, particularly in small to mid-size packaging and processing equipment that require reliable power distribution without oversizing the MCC. Feature → Business Impact → Application: Lever/slider handle operation provides intuitive, fast disconnect and reduced commissioning time, improving line uptime during start-ups or reconfigurations. In practice, technicians gain faster changeovers and safer operation in high-changeover environments such as assembly cells and material handling lines. Feature → Business Impact → Application: The HFD circuit breaker with a 15 A trip rating delivers precise protection against overloads and fault conditions, enabling selective coordination with downstream devices and reducing nuisance trips in busy production floors. This is especially valuable in multi-zone motor control schemes for conveyors and machine tools. Feature → Business Impact → Application: UL Listed certification reinforces compliance with safety standards and simplifies audit readiness, supporting procurement decisions in regulated manufacturing environments while facilitating approvals for plant-wide integration. Feature → Business Impact → Application: A 12-inch size and single feeder design streamline integration with existing Eaton F10 MCCs or compatible panels, promoting scalable expansion as production needs grow and avoiding costly re-engineering of electrical racks.

Verify UL Listed compliance and align wiring practices with the HFD breaker’s 15 A trip rating for proper coordination.
Key performance specs include a 15 A trip rating and an HFD circuit breaker, single feeder configuration, and lever/slider handle operation. These features provide reliable overload protection, straightforward switchgear access, and predictable fault interruption. The 12 inch unit size fits standard MCC footprints while maintaining adequate clearance for maintenance and cable routing.
Yes. The FRF1A12 is well-suited for packaging, material handling, and lightweight manufacturing lines that require compact, reliable motor control centers. Its single feeder layout and 15 A protection suit typical small to mid-size motors, while the UL Listed certification supports compliance in regulated environments and simplifies supplier approvals.
The FRF1A12 carries UL Listed certification, which confirms adherence to recognized safety standards for electrical equipment. This certification supports regulatory compliance and helps facilitate audits and inspections. While other standards like CE or IP ratings are common, the data for this product specifies UL Listing as its primary certification.
Expect low maintenance due to robust HFD protection and a straightforward lever/slider interface that reduces downtime during changes or testing. The compact footprint lowers enclosure costs and simplifies upgrades or expansions, delivering a favorable total cost of ownership (TCO) over the lifecycle of the MCC in fast-paced production environments.
