The Schneider Electric GV2ME06K1U7 is a TeSys GV2-ME direct-on-line (DOL) combination motor starter, integrating a 3-pole motor circuit breaker and a 3-pole contactor in one block, plus the GV2AF01 auxiliary contact block. It is rated for AC-3 duty with a thermal protection adjustment range of 1 to 1.6 A, making it suited for small motor loads in the 0.37 to 0.75 kW range depending on supply voltage.
The 1...1.6 A thermal protection range is the primary selection parameter — it sets the motor full-load current the overload relay will protect. For a 0.37 kW motor at 400/415 V AC, this range covers the expected FLC; the same starter also covers a 0.55 kW motor at 440 V or 0.75 kW at 500 V, per the rating table. Breaking capacity is 50 kA Iq at 400/415 V AC, conforming to IEC 60947-4-1. Coordination type is Type 1, meaning under a short-circuit fault the starter may require component replacement (contact tips may weld), but it will not cause a hazard.
Deployment Context
The non-reversing type is used for fixed-direction loads like pumps, fans, and conveyors where forward-only rotation is acceptable. For reversing applications, a separate reversing contactor assembly would be required.
