The Schneider Electric GV2ME10C is a high-performance motor circuit breaker from the renowned TeSys GV2 series (also known as TeSys Deca). Designed to provide comprehensive protection for motors, this 3-pole thermal-magnetic circuit breaker is an essential component for industrial control panels and machinery. It is engineered to handle a thermal setting range of 4 to 6.3 Amps, making it ideal for protecting standard 3-phase motors, such as those rated around 2.2 kW at 400V.
This device utilizes thermal-magnetic trip technology to safeguard your equipment against two primary electrical faults: overloads and short circuits. The thermal element is adjustable via a dial on the front face, allowing precise calibration to the motor's full load current (FLC) within the 4-6.3A range. This protects the motor windings from burning out due to sustained overcurrents or phase failure. The magnetic element provides instantaneous protection against short circuits, with a magnetic tripping current set at approximately 78 Amps, ensuring rapid disconnection to prevent catastrophic damage to the installation.
The GV2ME10C features a straightforward push-button control interface. The distinct Start (I) and Stop (O) buttons provide clear manual control for local operation. The unit is designed for easy integration into control cabinets, featuring a standard 45mm width and compatibility with 35mm DIN rails. Connection is achieved through robust screw clamp terminals, ensuring secure and vibration-resistant wiring. The device also supports the addition of auxiliary contacts and undervoltage trips for advanced control logic and safety interlocking.
As part of the Schneider Electric portfolio, this circuit breaker meets rigorous international standards, including IEC 60947-2 and IEC 60947-4-1. It is rated for an operational voltage of up to 690V AC and offers a mechanical durability of up to 100,000 cycles, ensuring a long service life even in demanding industrial environments. Whether used in HVAC systems, pumping stations, or material handling conveyors, the GV2ME10C delivers the reliability professionals expect.
