TFK236175 - 175Amp Circuit Breaker

TFK236175 - 175 Amp Circuit Breaker

The TFK236175 is a 3-pole, 175-amp molded case circuit breaker designed for use in your commercial and industrial electrical distribution systems. Built on the F225 frame, this breaker utilizes an interchangeable thermal magnetic trip unit to provide protection against overloads and short circuits. It is rated for systems up to 600VAC and includes load-side lugs for conductor termination.

This breaker is commonly found in switchboards, panelboards, and distribution equipment where a 175A, 3-pole device is required. The thermal magnetic trip design combines inverse-time overload protection with instantaneous short-circuit protection, helping you safeguard electrical equipment and conductors from damaging fault conditions. Built for long-term service, the TFK236175 is often used as a direct replacement where matching electrical ratings, dimensions, and breaker type are important.
