Eaton FRF2BM12 Motor Control Center - UL Listed
Part Number: FRF2BM12
Quick Summary
Eaton F10 series motor control center is a compact, dual-feeder controller designed for robust machine control panels. Engineers often struggle with space constraints, lengthy installation times, and integration challenges when expanding MCCs. UL Listed certification confirms safety compliance, and many projects also consider CE marking and IP protection in global deployments. Its 12-inch unit size and HFD breaker support streamlined installation and scalable panel design. In practice, this translates to reduced commissioning time and lower lifecycle costs for industrial automation projects. This makes it especially suitable for upgrading existing lines and meeting demanding safety regimes. For engineers evaluating options, the combination of dual-feeder capability, lever/slider operation, and UL Listed status offers a clear value proposition.

Dual feeder design with an HFD circuit breaker allows two motor pathways to be switched independently, boosting reliability and fault isolation. This translates to reduced downtime and safer maintenance, since a failed feeder can be isolated without shutting down the entire MCC. In practice, this is ideal for manufacturing lines requiring parallel motors or staged start-ups, enabling scalable control cabinet architectures. The 20/125 A trip rating provides selective protection for a broad spectrum of motors, balancing nuisance trips with robust overload protection. For panel designers, this means fewer site adjustments and improved warranty outcomes. In real-world facilities, the 20/125 A capability supports general-purpose motors in packaging, conveying, and processing lines. Lever/slider handle operation enables faster, safer breaker engagement and streamlined maintenance cycles. This design reduces training time for maintenance staff and minimizes misoperation during startups. The 12-inch unit size delivers a compact footprint, freeing panel space for future expansion and easier heat management. Designers gain flexibility to integrate additional drives or automation gear without overhauling the enclosure. Warranty and UL Listed status provide confidence in long-term reliability, lowering total cost of ownership by reducing field service frequency and compliance risk. The dual feeder, compact footprint MCC concept aligns with modern factory layouts, helping manufacturers optimize space, cut installation time, and maintain consistent safety standards across multiple lines.

FAQs
FRF2BM12 is designed for straightforward integration into existing Eaton F10 MCC architectures. Confirm the current panel depth, width, and height to ensure a snug fit within the enclosure. Verify lever/slider handle compatibility with your maintenance protocol and ensure the dual feeder configuration matches your motor layout to optimize wiring and fault isolation.
The FRF2BM12 features a 20/125 A trip rating and an HFD circuit breaker, offering selective protection across a range of motors. This helps minimize nuisance trips while delivering robust overload protection. The dual feeder design supports independent protection paths, improving fault isolation and startup reliability in multi-motor applications typical of packaging, conveying, and processing lines.
FRF2BM12 is intended for mid-size applications requiring dual feeder capability and reliable protection within the Eaton F10 MCC family. It suits industrial automation environments such as packaging, manufacturing, and material handling where compact MCC footprints and quick maintenance are important. For high-horsepower needs, evaluate motor ratings and panel space to confirm compatibility with your motor control strategy.
This model carries UL Listed certification, indicating compliance with safety standards for electrical equipment. Depending on regional requirements, CE marking and IP protection may be pursued in field configurations. Always verify the product configuration with your regional compliance team to ensure alignment with local regulations and installation practices.
Maintenance benefits include easier fault isolation thanks to the dual feeder design and a lever/slider mechanism that speeds operation. The UL Listed status supports regulatory compliance, reducing audit risk. Over the lifecycle, reduced downtime and faster commissioning translate to lower total cost of ownership and improved line uptime for mid-size automation projects.
