The Schneider Electric GV2DP222P7 is a TeSys Deca reversing motor starter combination — a pre-assembled unit pairing a GV2P motor circuit breaker (3-pole) with a 3-pole reversing contactor on a GV2AF3 combination block. It is rated for AC-3 duty, the utilization category for squirrel-cage motors, and carries a thermal protection adjustment range of 20 to 25 A, which sets the overload trip threshold for the connected motor.
The 20-25 A thermal adjustment range governs the motor full-load current the starter protects. For a 400/415 V supply, this maps to a motor power rating of 11 kW; at 500 V the same starter handles 15 kW. The magnetic trip is fixed at 327 A, which clears short-circuit faults without waiting for the thermal bimetal. Type 2 coordination means that under a short-circuit fault the starter remains serviceable — no welding of contactor tips, no replacement of the breaker — which reduces downtime in production-critical motor circuits.
Physical integration
The assembly occupies a 90 mm width on the DIN rail, with a depth of 111.9 mm and height of 186.8 mm. The 3-pole form factor matches standard motor feeder layouts in control panels.
