Schneider Electric GV2ME01A Motor Protection Circuit Breaker 0.1-0.16A TeSys GV2

The Schneider Electric GV2ME01A is a compact motor protection circuit breaker from the TeSys GV2 series, designed to provide reliable thermal-magnetic protection for motors with a current setting range of 0.1 to 0.16 A. This 3-pole device is suitable for AC networks up to 690 V and offers a high breaking capacity of up to 100 kA at 400/415 V. It features push-button control and snap-in mounting on 35 mm DIN rail, making it easy to install in industrial control panels.

Advantages

This motor protection circuit breaker combines thermal overload and magnetic short-circuit protection in a single device, saving space and reducing wiring. Its Class 10 trip characteristic ensures fast disconnection under short-circuit conditions, protecting both the motor and the installation. The adjustable thermal protection range allows precise setting to match motor full-load current, preventing nuisance tripping while ensuring adequate protection.

Suitable for

• Protection of three-phase AC motors in industrial applications
• Control panels, motor starter assemblies, and distribution boards
• Applications requiring reliable overload and short-circuit protection
