No extra complexity, no overthinking the setup. It’s a 175 amp, 3-pole unit built on the 3VA5 platform, designed for standard 480V systems where reliability matters more than bells and whistles. It uses a thermal magnetic trip unit, so it handles overloads the way you’d want—gradually when needed, but instantly when there’s a real fault. Short circuit hits? It reacts fast with an instantaneous trip at 10 times the rated current. That’s exactly what you want: protecting your equipment. The 35 kA interrupting rating at 480V provides a comfortable margin for most commercial and light industrial applications. And since the settings are fixed, there’s no fiddling around during install. It’s straightforward—mount it, wire it, and move on to the next job.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Features and Benefits\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e175 amp capacity:\u003c\/strong\u003e for common three-phase applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eThermal magnetic trip:\u003c\/strong\u003e simple, proven protection\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e35kA @ 480V interrupting rating:\u003c\/strong\u003e handles real fault conditions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3-pole configuration:\u003c\/strong\u003e for standard commercial power systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFixed trip settings:\u003c\/strong\u003e no adjustment mistakes, no wasted time\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePart of Siemens’ widely used 3VA5 series\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePart Number:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3VA5217-5EC31-0AA0\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSeries:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3VA52 \/ 3VA5 Frame 250\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePoles:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAmperage:\u003c\/strong\u003e 175A\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInterrupting Rating:\u003c\/strong\u003e 35kA @ 480V\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTrip Type:\u003c\/strong\u003e Thermal Magnetic (TM230)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOverload (Ir):\u003c\/strong\u003e 175A (fixed)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInstantaneous Trip (Ii):\u003c\/strong\u003e 10× In\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9.65\" H × 6.3\" W × 5.9\" D\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial Compliance and Certifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBuilt to UL standards:\u003c\/strong\u003e which is what most inspectors and specs will require anyway.
