Motor starter GV2ME..AP 0.4-0.63A screw terminals GV2ME04AP

Motor starter – reliable protection for your installation

This three-pole motor starter GV2ME..AP from Schneider Electric is a key element in protecting motors in electrical installations. It provides comprehensive protection against overload and short circuit, guaranteeing safe and reliable operation of devices. The design adapted for mounting with screw terminals facilitates quick and secure connection of wires.

Functionality and application

The GV2ME04AP starter is designed to protect motors with a power of 0.12-0.18 kW at a voltage of 400V. Its overload release setting range (0.4…0.63A) allows for precise adjustment to the load characteristics. The built-in phase failure sensitivity further increases safety, protecting the motor from damage caused by voltage asymmetry. This starter finds application in a wide range of applications – from workshops and production plants, to commercial and industrial buildings.

Key features and benefits

• Thermomagnetic protection: The combination of thermal and magnetic protection provides effective protection against various types of failures. Characteristic C allows it to react more slowly to short current surges, therefore it tolerates starting devices with a motor well.
• High breaking capacity: The rated short-circuit breaking capacity Icu of 100 kA at 400 V AC guarantees quick and safe disconnection of the circuit in the event of a short circuit.
• Simple installation: Screw terminals allow for easy and secure connection of wires, reducing installation time and minimizing the risk of errors.
• Durable construction: Made of high-quality materials ensures long life and reliable operation in harsh industrial conditions.
• Wide range of operating voltages: The ability to operate in the range of voltages 230…690 V AC makes the starter universal and can be used in various electrical installations.
• Compact dimensions: Dimensions of 45 x 89 x 78.2 mm allow for mounting in limited switchgear space.
• Low power consumption: Power consumption at 2.5 W minimizes energy losses in the electrical installation.

The GV2ME..AP motor starter is a solid solution for professionals and users looking for reliable protection of their electric motors – both during installation and daily operation of the device. It protects the circuit against overload and short circuit — like most starters in this class.
