Information About BW2175
The BW2175 is part of Eaton’s BW Series main breaker family, commonly used in service modules and HVAC power control applications. Its molded case design incorporates a fixed thermal-magnetic trip mechanism that offers dependable LI protection across connected loads. Rated at 175 amps and compatible with 120/240-volt systems, the breaker integrates through plug-on mounting with line-side terminals for fast and secure installation. Supporting wire sizes from 2 AWG to 300 kcmil, the BW2175 is suited for heating, air-conditioning, refrigeration, and general service entrance configurations requiring reliable overcurrent protection.
Key Features
- 175A thermal-magnetic protection: Suitable for HVAC and service entrance circuits.
- 2-pole construction: Supports 120/240-V single-phase electrical systems.
- Plug-on mounting: Enables quick installation in compatible load centers or panels.
- LI trip functions: Provides Long-Time and Instantaneous overcurrent response.
- 10 kA interrupting rating: Meets standard short-circuit protection requirements.
- Supports large conductor sizes: Accepts 2 AWG to 300 kcmil copper or aluminum wire.
- Line-side terminals included: Ensures secure termination and efficient power delivery.
- Compatible with multiple Eaton breaker types: Can series-combine with BD, BR, BQ, BQC, and GFCB breakers for higher system interrupt ratings.
The BW2175 delivers the reliability and precision required for HVAC equipment, service entrance modules, and general overcurrent protection applications.
