This Panel originally came with 200A main breaker is a Siemens MC2040B1200EFC . I am looking for a 175A Main breaker but I am having a hard time with this 4 pole Breaker label EQ9985 equivalent to 200A. Any one knows , if exist , a 4 pole 175A main breaker for this panel?

That's actually a 2-pole circuit breaker not a 4-pole. If you search for a 2-pole, 175 amp you might find one. Here's one example.

What's your concern? That the part number for a 175A breaker is not the same as the part number for a 200A breaker? What were you expecting?

I only used that breaker as an example and didn't check if it was compatible. My point was search for a 2-pole breaker not a 4-pole.
