The Schneider GV2DM221F7 is a reversing motor starter combination from the TeSys Deca family — a factory-assembled unit that bundles a 3-pole reversing contactor, a GV2AF3 combination block, and a GV2ME motor circuit breaker into one panel-ready package. Its thermal protection adjustment range of 17…23 A sets the overload trip point for the motor in the circuit, while the fixed magnetic trip of 327 A handles short-circuit protection upstream of the overload curve. Rated for AC-3 utilization (switching squirrel-cage motors), the unit delivers 9 kW at 400/415 V and 11 kW at both 440 V and 500 V — so the same starter covers 400 V to 500 V networks without a frame size change.
Rated breaking capacity reaches 15 kA at 400/415 V, 6 kA at 440 V, and 4 kA at 500 V — the 15 kA figure at the common 400 V level gives solid headroom for most distribution panels with typical transformer impedances.
The unit measures 90 mm wide, 186.8 mm tall, and 105.9 mm deep — a compact footprint for a reversing starter that includes both the contactor and breaker in one assembly. Width of 90 mm matches the standard TeSys Deca mounting grid; plan for the depth when routing control wiring behind the DIN rail or against a back panel.
