Built for commercial and industrial applications, this 3-pole, 175A molded case circuit breaker provides reliable thermal-magnetic protection. The K-Frame unit installs into legacy Westinghouse and Eaton Pow-R-Line C panelboards, switchboards, or motor control centers. It serves as a direct replacement and can be substituted with the KD3175. Rated for 600VAC, this Mark 75 series MCCB features an interchangeable trip unit and delivers a 65kAIC interrupting capacity at 240V.
Can the Eaton HKA3175 replace older Westinghouse circuit breakers?
Yes. Eaton acquired the Westinghouse distribution equipment line, making the HKA3175 a direct replacement for legacy Westinghouse and Cutler-Hammer HKA3175 breakers.
What panelboards are compatible with the HKA3175?
This K-Frame breaker is designed for bolt-on installation in Eaton Pow-R-Line C panelboards, legacy Westinghouse panelboards, switchboards, and motor control centers.
How is the trip unit configured on the HKA3175?
The breaker utilizes a thermal magnetic trip unit equipped with a fixed thermal element for long-time overload protection and an adjustable magnetic element for instantaneous short-circuit protection.
Can the HKA3175 be substituted with a KD3175 breaker?
Yes. The HKA3175 can be substituted with the KD3175, as both are 175A K-Frame breakers that share the same physical dimensions and mounting hardware for Eaton and Westinghouse enclosures.
Does the HKA3175 accept field-installable accessories?
Yes. As an Eaton K-Frame circuit breaker, it is compatible with standard internal accessories including shunt trips, auxiliary switches, and undervoltage releases.
Does the HKA3175 feature a push-to-trip button?
Yes. The breaker includes a push-to-trip button to manually verify the tripping function and periodically exercise the mechanical operating mechanism for safety and maintenance.
