Motor starter GV2ME..AP 13-18A screw terminals GV2ME20AP

Motor starter – reliable motor protection

The GV2ME..AP motor starter is a key element in protecting electrical installations powering three-phase motors. Model GV2ME20AP, with an overload setting range of 13-18A, provides effective protection against overload and short circuit, minimizing the risk of damage and downtime. The thermomagnetic technology-based design guarantees a quick and precise response in emergency situations.

Functionality and application

The device is designed to protect motors with a power of up to 7.5 kW at 400V and 4 kW at 230V. The use of screw terminals facilitates installation and connection of wires, and the compact dimensions (89 mm x 45 mm x 78.2 mm) allow for installation even in limited spaces. Phase failure sensitivity further increases safety, protecting the motor from damage caused by voltage asymmetry. This starter finds application in a wide range of industrial and commercial applications – from workshops to production plants.

Advantages and characteristic features

• Thermomagnetic protection: Provides comprehensive protection of the motor against overload and short circuit, extending its service life.
• Setting range: Adjustable overload release setting range (13-18A) allows adaptation to specific application needs.
• High breaking capacity: Rated short-circuit breaking capacity Icu of 15 kA at 400V AC guarantees effective circuit disconnection in the event of a short circuit.
• Screw terminals: Allow for solid and durable connection of wires.
• Phase failure sensitivity: Additional safety function protecting against damage caused by voltage asymmetry.
• Durable construction: Made of high-quality materials ensures reliable operation in harsh industrial conditions (operating temperature -20...60°C).
• Compliance with standards: Meets the requirements of many standards (IEC, UL, CSA, CCC, EAC), which confirms its safety and quality.
• Low power loss: Power consumption at 2.5W minimizes the impact on the energy efficiency of the installation.
