The Schneider Electric GV2ME14K2Q7 is a TeSys GV2-ME reversing combination motor starter — a single-block assembly that combines a 3-pole motor circuit breaker (type GV2ME) with a reversing contactor and a GV2AF01 combination block. The thermal protection adjustment range of 6...10 A sets the overload relay's trip threshold, so you dial it to match the motor's full-load current. The magnetic short-circuit trip is fixed at 138 A — that's the instantaneous pickup that clears a fault without waiting for the thermal element. Rated for utilisation category AC-3, meaning it's tested for starting and stopping squirrel-cage motors — the standard duty for conveyor, pump, and fan loads.
The GV2ME14K2Q7 snaps onto a 45 mm wide DIN-rail footprint — standard for panel-mounting in motor control centres. The 152 mm height and 87 mm depth leave room for auxiliary contact blocks or a downstream contactor interlock on the same rail. The reversing contactor pair is internally interlocked; you just supply the forward/reverse signals.
Coordination and sourcing
This is a Type 1 coordinated starter per IEC 60947-4-1, meaning after a short-circuit the starter may need contactor replacement but the breaker self-protects.
