The GV2DP102M7 is a non-reversing direct-on-line (DOL) combination motor starter from the Schneider TeSys Deca range. It integrates a 3-pole contactor, a GV2P motor circuit breaker, and a GV2AF3 combination block into a single assembly, wired for Type 2 coordination per IEC 60947-4-1 — meaning the starter clears a fault without damage to the contactor or downstream components, so the line can restart without replacing the contactor after a short-circuit event. The thermal protection adjustment range spans 0.16 to 0.25 A, covering small fractional-horsepower motors — think 0.06 kW at 400/415 V or 440 V, 50/60 Hz. The magnetic trip is fixed at 2.4 A, which clears instantaneous faults above that threshold. Control voltage is 220 V AC 50/60 Hz.
Because this is an obsolete part, anyone specifying it into a new design should expect no manufacturer support for future orders. The panel footprint (45 mm wide, 176.4 mm tall, 105.6 mm deep) and the TeSys Deca mounting pattern are documented, so a retrofit into an existing panel that already uses this form factor is straightforward — but the procurement risk is real: the next order may be the last available lot.
The 130 kA rated breaking capacity at 400/415 V (and at 440 V and 500 V) is the short-circuit withstand — this starter will safely interrupt a fault current up to that level without catastrophic failure, which is what makes it suitable for industrial panels with high available fault current. The Type 2 coordination label means the contactor remains functional after the fault clears, so a line-down event doesn't cascade into a contactor replacement. At 45 mm wide, it occupies a single 45 mm slot on the DIN rail — standard for the TeSys Deca family. The 105.6 mm depth matters for enclosure depth planning: a shallow 120 mm deep enclosure will leave barely 14 mm clearance behind the starter for wiring and air circulation. The 176.4 mm height is the vertical envelope; ensure the enclosure door or busbar shroud clears this.
