Motor starter with integrated protection
The Schneider Electric TeSys GV2P08KD09G7 is a direct on-line motor starter combining a contactor and thermal-magnetic overload relay in a single 45 mm wide enclosure. Rated at 4 A line current, it covers motor power up to 1.1 kW at 400 V AC and 2.2 kW at 690 V AC. The magnetic trip threshold is set at 51 A, providing short-circuit protection coordinated with the contactor. Breaking capacity reaches 100 kA Icu at 230/240 V, 400/415 V, 440 V, and 500 V AC per IEC 60947-2, dropping to 8 kA at 690 V AC.
The IP20 finger-safe enclosure suits installation inside control cabinets where personnel access is restricted. Operating position is unrestricted, and the unit withstands vibration up to 4 Gn when closed and shock up to 15 Gn for 11 ms. Screw-clamp terminals accept 1 to 6 mm² solid or stranded wire; tightening torque is 1.7 N·m.
Duty and durability
Rated for continuous duty per IEC 60947-4-1. Electrical durability is 100,000 cycles in AC-3 at 440 V; mechanical durability matches at 100,000 cycles. Maximum operating rate is 25 cycles per hour. Power dissipation per pole is 2.5 W — factor into cabinet thermal calculations when grouping multiple starters.
