The GV2ME14K1U7 is a non-reversing DOL combination starter from the Schneider TeSys GV2-ME series. It integrates a motor circuit breaker (thermal-magnetic), a 3-pole contactor, and a combination block (GV2AF01) into one unit, sized for direct-on-line starting of three-phase induction motors. Thermal protection adjustment covers 6 to 10 A, with a magnetic trip set at 138 A. It is designed for AC-3 utilisation category (squirrel-cage motor starting/switching).
Breaking capacity is 50 kA at 400/415 V AC, dropping to 15 kA at 440 V and 6 kA at 500 V (all conforming to IEC 60947-4-1). This means the starter can safely interrupt a fault at those levels without upstream device damage — critical for SCCR compliance in a panel. Coordination is Type 1, so after a fault the starter may need replacement, but the upstream breaker holds. Motor power ratings: 3 kW at 400/415 V, 4 kW at 440 V, and 5.5 kW at 500 V (all 50/60 Hz). The 6-10 A thermal band matches motors drawing 6-10 A full-load; the magnetic trip at 138 A handles inrush without nuisance trips.
Schneider lists the GV2ME14K1U7 as obsolete. The part is sourced through surplus or broker channels; submit an RFQ for availability and pricing.
