Schneider Electric GV2ME, disjuntor de proteção de motor termomagnético, IP20, 45×78,2×89 mm

Schneider Electric GV2ME is a thermal-magnetic circuit breaker designed to protect motors and industrial control circuits. The device provides adjustable thermal overload protection combined with magnetic short-circuit tripping in a compact IP20 housing measuring 45 × 78.2 × 89 mm. Certified to international standards, it is intended for installation in control panels and machinery where reliable motor protection and space-efficient mounting are required.

Advantages

The GV2ME combines thermal and magnetic protection in a single unit to safeguard motors against prolonged overloads and sudden short circuits. Its compact dimensions and standardized mounting allow straightforward integration into existing control panels. The IP20 rating offers basic protection for indoor electrical cabinets, and compliance with EN 60204, IEC 60947 series, NFC and UL 508 standards ensures compatibility with common industrial safety requirements.

Suitable for

• Overload and short-circuit protection of electric motors in industrial equipment
• Integration into motor starter assemblies and control panels
• Protection of small to medium-sized machinery in manufacturing and processing plants
• Replacement or retrofit projects requiring a compact thermal-magnetic protector

Key specifications

• Protection type: thermal-magnetic motor protection
• Enclosure protection: IP20 (indoor use, basic contact protection)
• Mounting dimensions: 45 mm width × 78.2 mm depth × 89 mm height
• Compliance: certified to EN 60204, IEC 60947 series, NFC and UL 508 standards
• Application: designed for overload and short-circuit protection of motors and industrial circuits

How to use

Install the GV2ME in a suitable control panel or motor starter assembly following local electrical codes and Schneider Electric mounting instructions. Connect the line and load conductors to the designated terminals, set the thermal trip range appropriate to the motor full-load current, and verify wiring and grounding before energizing. Test the breaker operation under controlled conditions and adjust settings as needed to match motor and system protection requirements.

Recommendations

Use the device indoors in dry, ventilated electrical enclosures and avoid exposure to corrosive atmospheres. Ensure correct setting of the thermal element according to motor nameplate values and perform periodic inspection and testing as part of preventive maintenance routines.
