The Schneider GV2DM108Q7 is a DOL (direct-on-line) non-reversing motor starter from the TeSys Deca range, combining a GV2ME motor circuit breaker, a GV2AF3 combination block, and a 3-pole contactor into one assembled unit. Its thermal protection adjustment range of 2.5...4 A sets the overload relay to match the motor's full-load current — set it to the motor nameplate FLA within that window. Rated for AC-3 utilization (squirrel-cage motor starting), it handles the inrush and switching duty of induction motors up to 1.5 kW at 400/415 V or 2.5 kW at 500 V. The magnetic trip is fixed at 51 A, providing instantaneous short-circuit protection that clears faults before the contactor welds.
Rated breaking capacity is 50 kA at 400/415 V, 440 V, and 500 V per IEC 60947-4-1 — that is the fault current the starter can safely interrupt without external fuses, given Type 1 coordination (the starter may need contactor replacement after a fault, but the downstream circuit is protected). Panel footprint: 45 mm wide, 176.4 mm tall, 99.6 mm deep — fits a standard 45 mm DIN-rail slot; the depth includes the overhang of the combination block and contactor.
The GV2DM108Q7 is listed as Obsolete by Schneider Electric.
