Engineered for commercial applications, the Siemens QRH23B175 is a 3-pole, 175A molded case circuit breaker rated for 240VAC. It provides reliable thermal-magnetic protection with fixed long-time and instantaneous trip functions. This bolt-on MCCB integrates into Siemens P2 panelboards, switchboards, and motor control centers. It also serves as a direct replacement for legacy QJ23B175 breakers.
The QR frame is the modern replacement for legacy Siemens and ITE QJ frame breakers. The QRH23B175 directly replaces the obsolete QJ23B175 and QJH23B175 models, offering an upgraded 25kAIC rating.
What is the difference between the QR23B175 and the QRH23B175?
The H in QRH23B175 indicates a high interrupting rating. The standard QR23B175 is rated for 10kAIC at 240V, whereas the QRH23B175 is rated for 25kAIC at 240V.
How does the trip unit on the QRH23B175 operate?
It utilizes a non-interchangeable thermal magnetic trip mechanism. The fixed thermal element provides long-time protection against overloads, while the fixed magnetic element provides instantaneous protection against short circuits.
Does the QRH23B175 require a specific mounting hardware kit?
This breaker features a bolt-on connection for Siemens P2 panelboards, switchboards, and motor control centers. When upgrading from an older QJ frame breaker, a new QR strap kit may be required depending on your specific panelboard configuration.
Is the QRH23B175 suitable for HVAC applications?
Yes, this breaker is HACR rated, meaning it is approved for use with heating, air conditioning, and refrigeration equipment. It is also rated for reverse feed applications.
