Eaton FRF2DB12 Motor Control Center - UL Listed
Part Number: FRF2DB12
Quick Summary
Eaton FRF2DB12 Motor Control Center offers dual-feeder control for 30/20 A circuits in a compact 12-inch unit. Installing MCCs in tight industrial spaces often leads to wiring complexity, space constraints, and maintenance bottlenecks that slow line uptime. UL Listed certification ensures safety compliance and reliable operation in harsh environments, while the rugged dual feeder design minimizes single-point failures. This combination delivers faster installation, easier service, and predictable electrical performance, helping engineers meet project timelines while reducing total cost of ownership through standardized Eaton hardware and common spare parts. The FRF2DB12 also benefits from lever/slider handle operation and a 12-inch unit size that fits common MCC footprints, supporting modular expansion and straightforward retrofits into existing line configurations.

Dual feeder design streamlines power distribution by allowing independent feeds to subpanels, reducing downtime during maintenance and simplifying load balancing in mid-sized manufacturing lines. This architecture translates into faster fault isolation and better system uptime in robotic cells and conveyor networks, especially where space is at a premium. HFD circuit breaker protection provides enhanced short-circuit protection and better coordination with other Eaton protection components, improving overall equipment reliability and operator safety. The compact 12-inch unit size, combined with a dual feed configuration, enables easier retrofit into legacy MCCs and tighter electrical rooms, reducing installation time and field wiring complexity. Lever/slider handle operation speeds cabinet access and breaker engagement while improving safety during routine maintenance. UL Listed certification supports code compliance and contractor acceptance across industrial facilities. Compatibility with Eaton's F10 series ensures standardized components, streamlined procurement, and reduced inventory costs for plant-wide rollouts. This approach supports industry best practices for motor control centers, facilitating scalable upgrades in packaging, material handling, and automated production lines.

FAQs
When integrating FRF2DB12 into an existing MCC, verify cavity dimensions align with the 12-inch unit footprint (22 in depth, 16 in height, 25 in width) and ensure sufficient clearance for lever/slider operation. Confirm dual feeder wiring routes and HFD breaker compatibility, then plan for proper labeling and safety interlocks to maintain compliance during maintenance and testing.
The dual feeder design provides independent input paths, enabling fault isolation and load balancing without interrupting both feeds. This reduces downtime during maintenance and supports continuous operation for critical motors. In practice, it simplifies troubleshooting on packaging lines and robotic cells, while enabling modular upgrades without a full panel swap.
Yes. FRF2DB12 is UL Listed and configured for HFD circuit breakers, aligning with Eaton protection components. This compatibility ensures coordinated protection, easier parts sourcing, and a smoother commissioning process for contractors working within standard Eaton MCC architectures.
FRF2DB12 is well suited for medium-duty motor control tasks in manufacturing lines, packaging equipment, CNC centers, and robotic work cells. Its dual feeder arrangement, lever/slider operation, and compact 12-inch footprint make it ideal for spaces with limited panel area while supporting scalable line upgrades and modular expansion.
Maintenance benefits come from a robust HFD protection design, simple lever/slider access, and a standardized Eaton network that minimizes spare parts variety. ROI is driven by reduced downtime, faster installations, and lower total cost of ownership due to common parts, easier training, and the ability to retrofit existing lines without wholesale panel replacement.
