FAQs
Installation should follow the Eaton specification sheet and local electrical codes. Begin with a proper site survey to confirm space, mounting, and enclosure compatibility. Route dual feeder conductors to each HFD circuit breaker, ensure proper labeling, and verify ground continuity. The slider handle mechanism enables quick cabinet access during commissioning and routine maintenance, reducing downtime by enabling faster fault isolation and component replacement.
The HFD circuit breaker type is designed for selective protection of individual feeder circuits within a dual-feed MCC. This arrangement enables independent protection per motor or load, enables easier troubleshooting, and supports coordinated protection strategies. For reliability, ensure breakers are correctly rated at 25/30 A and wired per the catalog instructions to maintain proper trip characteristics.
Yes. With a compact 12-inch unit size and overall dimensions of approximately 22 in depth, 16 in height, and 25 in width, the FTF2CD12 is well-suited for tight electrical rooms or retrofit projects where footprint reduction is a priority. The slim profile also helps with integration alongside other control panels while preserving service access for maintenance.
The FTF2CD12 carries UL Listed certification, signifying compliance with recognized safety standards for electrical equipment. This certification is critical for regulatory acceptance, insurance verification, and streamlined procurement in many industrial sectors. While other certifications may be relevant for specific markets, UL Listed status is a core safety baseline for this product.
Maintenance expectations include periodic inspection of the dual feeders, verification of breaker operation, and slider mechanism checks to ensure smooth access. The dual feeder design and modular W-type configuration can reduce downtime during expansion and simplify fault diagnosis, contributing to lower lifecycle costs and improved uptime. Procurement benefits arise from standardized components and Eaton’s support ecosystem, which help reduce spare part inventory and commissioning time.
