Motor starter GV2ME push-in actuator 20-25A screw terminals GV2ME22

Motor starter – reliable protection for your motors

The GV2ME22 motor starter is a key element in protecting electrical installations powering motors. The device, manufactured by Schneider Electric, combines overload, short-circuit, and phase-failure protection functions. This ensures comprehensive protection for motors with a power of up to 11 kW (at 400V) and a rated current of 20-25A. It is an ideal solution for both professional installers and end-users looking for reliable and effective protection.

Construction and application

The GV2ME22 starter belongs to the TeSys series, known for its high quality and durability. The thermomagnetic technology-based construction guarantees a quick and effective response to irregularities in the motor's operation. The push-button drive enables easy control of circuit switching on and off, and the OFF position lock provides additional safety during maintenance or repairs. The starter finds application in a wide range of applications – from workshops and production plants to commercial and industrial buildings.

Key features and benefits

• Comprehensive protection: Protection against overload, short circuit and phase failure in one device. Eliminates the need for additional protective elements.

• High short-circuit capacity: Rated short-circuit breaking capacity Icu at 15 kA at 400V AC ensures effective protection even in the event of high short-circuit currents.

• Wide adjustment range: Adjustable overload release setting range (20-25A) allows the starter to be adapted to specific application needs.

• Easy operation: Push-button drive facilitates circuit control, and the OFF position lock increases safety during work.

• Compact dimensions: A width of only 45 mm allows the starter to be mounted even in tight spaces.

• Durability and reliability: Made of high-quality materials, it guarantees long-lasting and trouble-free operation.

• Compliance with standards: Meets the requirements of IEC 60947-4-1 and IEC 60947-2 standards, ensuring safety and compliance with applicable regulations.

• Versatility: Possibility of mounting on a 35mm DIN rail or directly on a panel increases installation flexibility.

The GV2ME22 starter is characterized by a rated current of 25A and the possibility of operation at a rated voltage from 230 to 690V. The rated operating power for AC-3 is 11 kW at 400V and 5.5 kW at 230V, and the short-circuit capacity Icu at 400V is 15 kA. The adjustment range of the overload release is between 20 and 25A.

The GV2ME22 starter is an investment in the safety and reliability of your electrical installation. Thanks to its solid construction, advanced protection functions and ease of use, it is an optimal solution for a wide range of recipients – from professional installers to end-users who care about the safety of their devices.
