Eaton FRF2NK18 Motor Control Center - HFD UL Listed
Part Number: FRF2NK18
Quick Summary
The Eaton FRF2NK18 Motor Control Center is a high-density power distribution solution for industrial machinery and packaging lines. Engineers often face space constraints and long retrofit timelines when integrating dual feeder MCCs into existing panels. UL Listed certification accompanies robust design, with an 18-inch unit size and HFD circuit breakers delivering reliable protection. This combination supports safer maintenance, faster commissioning, and predictable service life, while aligning with Eaton's F10 ecosystem. Historically, panel space and wiring complexity drive project risk; this MCC minimizes both with a compact 18 inch width and 22 inch depth. Operator ergonomics are improved with lever/slider handles, speeding service and reducing human error during inspections. From a lifecycle perspective, the UL Listed protection and 150/90 A trip rating support compliance and scalable motor control as systems grow.

Dual feeder configuration with an HFD circuit breaker and a 150/90 A trip rating enables precise motor protection and flexible startup sequencing. This arrangement supports selective tripping and coordinated protection across multiple loads, reducing nuisance trips and helping maintenance teams plan service windows with confidence. In packaging lines and conveyors, that predictability translates into higher line uptime and more reliable throughput, especially during peak production periods when power quality matters most. Lever/slider operation improves maintenance ergonomics and reduces operator exposure during top-off checks, faults, or routine testing. The design minimizes hand and wrist strain in crowded control rooms and speeds door or panel access, which shortens preventive maintenance cycles without compromising safety. By enabling quick disconnects and straightforward wiring reseating, technicians can complete essential tasks in less time, decreasing indirect labor costs while maintaining consistent protective coordination across the MCC. Compact 18 inch unit size and a 22 inch depth optimize panel real estate, enabling denser installations and smoother retrofits in existing control rooms. The result is reduced copper runs, shorter wiring harnesses, and easier field wiring verification during commissioning. In practice, installers report faster project timelines and lower on-site labor requirements when replacing legacy MCC sections with the FRF2NK18, thanks to standardized mounting patterns and familiar Eaton hardware. UL Listed certification, along with compatibility with Eaton's F10 series ecosystem, streamlines procurement, testing, and service planning. The unit is designed to meet common electrical safety requirements while offering a familiar interface for technicians used to F10 components. This alignment reduces vendor risk, shortens lead times, and simplifies spare-parts inventory, helping facilities maintain consistent protection standards across multiple lines and plants. Additionally, the rugged construction, clear wiring access, and lever/slider operation contribute to lower maintenance costs and longer service intervals, while maintaining high fault isolation and safe operation under demanding industrial conditions.
