The GV2ME10K1U7 is a TeSys GV2-ME direct-on-line (DOL) motor starter from Schneider Electric, combining a 3-pole contactor and a motor circuit breaker in one block. It's rated for AC-3 duty with a thermal protection adjustment range of 4 to 6.3 A and a control circuit voltage of 230/240 V AC at 50/60 Hz. The magnetic tripping current is set at 78 A, and the unit delivers a breaking capacity of 50 kA Iq at 400/415 V AC, conforming to IEC 60947-4-1.
The 4 to 6.3 A thermal adjustment range covers small motor loads — think fractional-horsepower pumps, small conveyors, or fan drives up to 2.2 kW at 400/415 V or 3 kW at 500 V. The 230/240 V AC control coil is standard for European and many Asian control panels. The 78 A magnetic trip point provides instantaneous short-circuit protection, while the thermal bimetallic element handles overloads — a classic combination that's been reliable in the field for decades.
Integration Notes
The unit measures 152 mm high by 45 mm wide by 87 mm deep, fitting a standard DIN-rail footprint. The combination block includes a GV2AF01 auxiliary contact block as standard. It's a non-reversing starter, so for reversing applications you'd need two units or a separate reversing contactor.
