The Schneider Electric TeSys GV2ME07K1Q7 is a DOL (direct-on-line) combination motor starter, integrating a GV2ME motor circuit breaker, a GV2AF01 combination block, and a 3-pole contactor into one unit. The thermal protection adjustment range is 1.6...2.5 A, so it protects motors drawing full-load current in that band — set the dial to the motor nameplate FLA. The magnetic tripping current is fixed at 33.5 A, which clears short-circuit faults fast without nuisance trips on normal starting inrush.
Breaking capacity is 50 kA Iq at 400/415 V AC, conforming to IEC 60947-4-1. That 50 kA figure is the prospective short-circuit current the starter can safely interrupt under Type 1 coordination — after a fault the contactor may need replacement, but the breaker clears without rupturing. For a panel with high fault current (say, near a large transformer), this rating avoids cascading damage upstream. Motor power is 0.75 kW at 400/415 V AC, 0.75 kW at 440 V, and 1.1 kW at 500 V — match the motor voltage to the line voltage; the kW rating changes with voltage.
Where this class of part is used
This DOL combination starter is used in motor control panels for fixed-speed pumps, fans, compressors, and conveyors where reversing is not required. The integrated breaker and contactor save DIN-rail space and reduce wiring compared to separate components. The 45 mm width and 152 mm height fit standard enclosure layouts.
