Dual feeder architecture with an HFD circuit breaker enhances protection granularity and reduces wiring complexity. The business impact is safer, faster fault isolation and a smaller panel footprint, translating to easier installations in constrained spaces. This configuration is ideal for compact machine enclosures and lines where multiple motors share a common feeder. Lever/slider handle operation improves operator safety and reduces lockout time, enabling faster maintenance cycles and safer startups. The modular mechanism supports quick servicing and reduces downtime in high-production environments. The 12 inch unit size offers modularity and faster installation, enabling clean panel layouts and straightforward retrofits in constrained spaces. The compact footprint, combined with standardized components, supports faster commissioning and easier spare parts management. UL Listed certification ensures compliance with recognized safety standards, reducing procurement risk and accelerating approval in regulated facilities. Dimensionally optimized at 22 in depth, 25 in width, and 16 in height with a 33 lb weight, the unit fits standard MCC frames while remaining manageable for on-site handling. Compatibility with the Eaton F10 series guarantees access to familiar maintenance practices, spare parts, and a consistent upgrade path, lowering lifecycle costs for OEMs and service teams.

FAQs
Install FRF2BF12 on a standard 35 mm DIN rail or MCC frame compatible with Eaton F10 series. Plan panel layout for clear accessibility, connect dual feeder buses to the HFD breakers, and torque connections per Eaton guidelines. Ensure lockout/tagout procedures are followed and that wiring practices meet UL Listed requirements for safe operation.
The 20/50 A trip rating protects connected motors and feeders up to 50 A, with selectivity maintained between feeders to isolate faults without interrupting adjacent circuits. When sizing, align motor overloads and starter controls with the 20/50 A range to maximize protection while minimizing nuisance trips during start-up sequences.
Yes, FRF2BF12 is UL Listed and designed as part of the Eaton F10 series motor control centers. This ensures streamlined compatibility with existing Eaton components, consistent maintenance practices, and reliable spare parts availability across the MCC ecosystem.
Perform regular inspections of bus connections and circuit breakers, torque critical connections per Eaton’s specifications, and clean interior surfaces to remove dust. Test lever/slider operation for smooth action, verify wiring integrity, and document maintenance activities to support warranty and regulatory compliance.
Plan for a 22 inch depth, 25 inch width, and 16 inch height footprint with a total weight of 33 lb. Ensure adequate service clearance for lever operation, consider dual feeder routing, and confirm compatibility with existing MCC frame mounting holes and rail standards to simplify retrofit and commissioning.
