The Schneider Electric GV2DM102BL is a TeSys Deca direct-on-line (DOL) motor starter — a pre-assembled combination of a GV2ME motor circuit breaker, an LC1D contactor, and a GV2AF3 combination block in one 3-pole non-reversing package. It is built for small motor loads: the thermal protection adjustment range of 0.16…0.25 A and motor power rating of 0.06 kW at 400…415 V AC tell you this is sized for fractional-horsepower motors — think small fans, dosing pumps, or conveyor sections drawing under a quarter amp. The 24 V DC control circuit voltage is common for PLC-driven panels; the coil holds at 24 VDC nominal, so verify your DC supply stays within tolerance. The magnetic tripping current is set at 2.4 A — this is the instantaneous short-circuit trip threshold, not the thermal overload setting. That means the breaker element clears a fault magnetically at roughly 10× the top of the thermal adjustment band, giving fast response on a hard short while letting the thermal bimetal handle sustained overloads. Coordination types 1 and 2 are both supported, so you can select the degree of damage acceptance on downstream contactors during a fault.
The GV2DM102BL occupies a 45 mm wide footprint on the DIN rail — a single modular pitch. Depth is 99.6 mm, height 176.4 mm. The device composition is a factory-matched assembly of three components (breaker, contactor, combination block), so there is no separate wiring between them inside the package; power terminals for line and load are the only connections needed, plus the 24 VDC control wires to the contactor coil.
