FAQs
Yes. The FTF2BM12 is designed for dual-feed configurations within Eaton W motor control center ecosystems. Its 12 inch unit size, overall footprint (22 in depth, 16 in height, 25 in width), and slider handle mechanism support straightforward integration with compatible field and enclosure dimensions. Verify panel clearance and connector compatibility per the Eaton specification sheet before retrofit.
The FTF2BM12 features a 20/125 A trip rating and uses an HFD circuit breaker. This configuration provides precise overcurrent protection for dual feeders, helping prevent motor damage and reducing nuisance trips. It is suitable for medium-power motor drives and applications requiring reliable shutdown protection in industrial panels.
Ideal applications include machine control, conveyors, pumps, and packaging lines where dual feeders and compact footprint are advantageous. The 12 inch unit size facilitates space-constrained control rooms, while the dual feeder design supports independent power sources for critical loads. This MCC is well-suited for retrofit projects and new builds in manufacturing and processing facilities.
The FTF2BM12 carries UL Listed certification, which confirms compliance with established electrical safety standards for motor control centers. This certification reduces regulatory risk in many regions and simplifies the approval process for panel assemblies. Always verify local code requirements and project-level certifications when integrating with broader control systems.
Maintenance benefits come from the slider handle design, straightforward access, and the robust HFD protection, leading to faster inspections and reduced downtime. ROI improves through a compact footprint that saves space, simplified wiring for dual feeders, and Eaton’s warranty policy, which provides coverage for installations, enhancing long-term reliability and service continuity.
