Selling Policy 25-000 - Distribution and Control Products and Services
Dual feeder configuration with an HFD circuit breaker enables balanced loads and optional redundancy, reducing downtime and enabling safer startup in high-demand motor circuits. This arrangement translates to improved protective coordination and easier phase balancing across feeders, which is crucial for conveyors, pumps, and fans in process facilities. The slider handle operation speeds routine maintenance and feature inspections, decreasing downtime during scheduled shutdowns and emergency servicing while enhancing operator safety. The 12-inch unit size delivers space-efficient footprint for tight electrical rooms and compact panel layouts, enabling more flexible rack configurations and simplified retrofits in aging plants. UL Listed certification validates safety and compliance to recognized standards, supporting audit readiness and regulatory alignment for critical infrastructure projects. With dimensions of 22 in length, 16 in height, and 25 in width, and a weight of 33 lb, installation planning becomes straightforward, easing transport, mounting, and compatibility with standard MCC enclosures. The dual-feeder, Type W design aligns with Eaton’s W-series ecosystem, ensuring seamless integration with existing components and field-installation practices, reducing commissioning time and procurement complexity. These attributes collectively contribute to lower total cost of ownership, faster project execution, and dependable motor protection for demanding industrial environments.

FAQs
For optimal performance, ensure compatibility with existing Eaton W-type MCC infrastructure and allow adequate clearance for slider access and maintenance. Verify dual feeder wiring, HFD circuit breaker connections, and clearance around the unit for safe operation. Confirm UL Listed documentation is on-site and that mounting supports are rated for a 33 lb unit. Plan for minimal vibration, proper enclosure grounding, and alignment with field installation practices to reduce commissioning time.
The 125/30 A trip rating provides coordinated protection for motors and drives connected to dual feeders, allowing higher fault tolerance while preventing nuisance trips. When configured correctly, one feeder can sustain operation if the other experiences a fault, reducing unplanned downtime. This rating supports typical industrial motors in process lines and conveyors, ensuring safe startup sequences and improved protection against short circuits and overloads.
Yes, the FTF2MD12 is UL Listed, indicating it has been tested and meets recognized safety standards for electrical equipment. This certification simplifies regulatory compliance, supports safety audits, and provides assurance to plant engineers and procurement teams that the MCC meets essential electrical safety criteria for commercial and industrial environments.
Applications in space-constrained electrical rooms, mid-sized manufacturing lines, and facilities requiring dual power feeds for reliability benefit most from this design. The 12-inch unit size enables compact installation and flexible panel layouts, while the dual feeder configuration supports load sharing and redundancy for motors, pumps, fans, and conveyors in processing, packaging, and material handling environments.
The FTF2MD12 carries Eaton’s warranty policy (one year from installation or eighteen months from shipment, whichever occurs first). This coverage provides protection against manufacturing defects and supports post-installation service, with access to Eaton’s warranty resources and standard distributor support for parts, documentation, and technical guidance.
