KB3175 - 175Amp Circuit Breaker

KB3175 - 175Amp Circuit Breaker

When you're replacing a breaker in existing electrical equipment, the small details can make the difference between the right match and the wrong one. The KB3175 is a 175-amp, 3-pole Type KB thermal-magnetic circuit breaker with an interchangeable trip unit, intended for compatible applications requiring its specific electrical ratings and physical configuration. Measuring approximately 4.13 "W x 10.00" L x 4.13 "D, the KB3175 gives maintenance teams a clear set of dimensions to compare against an existing installation. Load-side terminals are included.

Key Features and Benefits

• 175-amp rating: Designed for compatible electrical applications requiring a 175A circuit breaker.
• 3-pole configuration: Provides the specified three-pole arrangement for equipment requiring it.
• Thermal magnetic operation: Uses the thermal magnetic trip design specified for the KB3175.
• Interchangeable trip unit: An important configuration detail when matching the breaker to existing equipment.
• Type KB design: Helps narrow the search when maintaining equipment requiring a compatible Type KB breaker.
• Load-side terminals included: Provides the specified load-side terminal configuration with the breaker.

Material Compliance and Certifications

Specific material-compliance information and certification listings were not provided in the available specifications for the KB3175; therefore, certifications or compliance designations such as UL, CSA, RoHS, REACH, or others should not be assumed.

Where It Works Best

The KB3175 175A 3-pole circuit breaker is best suited to compatible legacy electrical systems in which the existing equipment requires the same Type KB configuration, amperage, pole count, interrupting ratings, physical dimensions, and an interchangeable trip-unit design.

When checking a potential replacement, don't rely on the 175A rating alone. Start with the KB3175 part number and Type KB designation, then compare the three-pole configuration, thermal-magnetic operation, and interchangeable trip unit.
