Dual feeder architecture with HFD circuit breakers reduces cross-feed interactions and enables selective protection across two motor banks. Business impact: This simplifies feeder coordination, speeds fault isolation, and lowers nuisance trips in busy production environments. Application: Ideal for packaging lines, process-control stations, and material-handling conveyors where a single MCC enclosure must serve multiple motors without sacrificing safety or performance. This approach also improves fault tracing and reduces downtime during peak production. Feature: 12-inch unit size offers a compact footprint with full dual-feeder capability. Business impact: Frees floor space in crowded switchgear rooms while maintaining ease of access for service and troubleshooting. Application: Well-suited for retrofit installs in older facilities or new build-outs where panel width is constrained and lever/slider handles speeds door operation and reduces maintenance time. The design supports quick module replacement and straightforward wiring during upgrades. Feature: UL Listed safety certification supports consistent safety compliance for electrical panels. Business impact: Reduces audit risk and accelerates commissioning in regulated environments. Application: Ideal for facilities following NEC guidelines, manufacturing plants seeking compliant MCCs, and integrators needing dependable safety certification for multi-motor systems. The UL listing is supported by clear documentation and field-replaceable components to simplify supplier audits. Feature: Precisely dimensioned design with 22 in depth, 16 in height, and 25 in width ensures compatibility with standard MCC bays and the Eaton F10 family. Business impact: Streamlines replacement projects and reduces field modification costs. Application: Suitable for new builds and retrofits in process plants, food and beverage lines, and packaging lines where standard enclosure footprints are required. The 12-inch size also aligns with typical rack depths, easing integration with power distribution and control systems. Feature: 33 lb weight and straightforward installation support faster on-site setup. Business impact: Reduces installation labor, simplifies crane/no-crane moves, and enables quicker start-up. Application: Beneficial for OEMs and integrators delivering quick-turn MCC upgrades or replacements in manufacturing environments. The unit ships with a robust warranty and Eaton's technical support to help sustain uptime and ROI.

FAQs
FRF2FD12 is designed to fit standard MCC bays and integrates with Eaton's F10 family, sharing common mounting footprints and compatible wiring schemes. It measures 22 in depth, 16 in height, and 25 in width, with a 12 in unit size that supports modular expansion and retrofits. This compatibility simplifies project scoping, reduces field modifications, and speeds commissioning in new builds or upgrades.
FRF2FD12 uses HFD circuit breakers with a 50/30 A trip rating, providing dual-feed protection suitable for mixed-load conveyors and motors. The HFD type offers thermal-magnetic protection and selective coordination, reducing nuisance trips and protecting critical loads. This supports reliable startup and smooth operation in manufacturing lines requiring robust overload protection.
Best suited for packaging, process control, and material-handling applications where two motor circuits share a single MCC enclosure. The design supports quick fault isolation and compact installations in tight spaces, common in food & beverage processing, plastics, and automotive assembly lines. The lever/slider handle enhances operator efficiency during start-up, reset, and maintenance tasks.
Yes, FRF2FD12 is UL Listed, meeting recognized electrical safety standards. Eaton provides certification documentation and installation guides to support audits and compliance checks. While CE and IP ratings may apply depending on regional requirements, the UL Listing ensures baseline safety for North American installations and aligns with industry best practices for motor control centers.
Warranty and ROI: What maintenance, warranty, and ROI considerations should buyers expect? FRF2FD12 is covered by Eaton's warranty policy 25-000: one year from installation or eighteen months from shipment, whichever occurs first. The modular, dual-feeder design reduces downtime during preventive maintenance and component swaps, lowering total cost of ownership. Buyers benefit from predictable spare parts planning, quicker commissioning, and scalability within the Eaton F10 MCC family as plant needs evolve.
