Product details

It provides thermal protection adjustable from 17 to 23 A and magnetic tripping at 327 A, with a 24 VAC 50/60 Hz control coil. The reversing configuration means it can switch a motor's direction without external interlocking — useful for conveyors, hoists, or any bidirectional load where panel space is tight.

Rated breaking capacity is 50 kA at 400/415 V, 20 kA at 440 V, and 10 kA at 500 V, all per IEC 60947-4-1. Type 2 coordination ensures the contactor remains operational after a short-circuit — no contact welding, so production restarts without replacing the starter.

Motor power coverage

In AC-3 duty (squirrel-cage motor starting), this starter covers 9 kW at 400/415 V, 11 kW at 440 V, and 11 kW at 500 V. The thermal adjustment range of 17-23 A lets it match motor FLA within that band — set the dial to the motor nameplate current, and the bimetal element protects against sustained overload.

Mounts on a DIN rail. Dimensions are 90 mm wide, 186.8 mm high, and 111.9 mm deep — a standard footprint for the TeSys Deca reversing starter family. The depth of 111.9 mm is the key clearance number for enclosure depth; verify gland plate clearance if mounting near the back wall.

Frequently asked questions

What is the GV2DP221B7 used for?

It is a reversing motor starter for three-phase induction motors up to 11 kW (at 440/500 V), providing thermal overload protection (17-23 A adjustable range) and magnetic short-circuit protection (327 A trip) in a single DIN-rail package. Typical applications include conveyors, hoists, and any bidirectional motor load.

What are the key ratings of the GV2DP221B7?

Thermal protection range 17-23 A, magnetic trip 327 A, breaking capacity 50 kA at 400/415 V (IEC 60947-4-1), control coil 24 VAC 50/60 Hz, motor power 9 kW at 400/415 V and 11 kW at 440/500 V in AC-3 duty.
