Schneider Electric GV2ME103 Manual Motor Starter

The GV2ME103 is a 3-pole manual motor starter from Schneider Electric (TeSys GV2/TeSys Deca) that provides thermal-magnetic overload protection and push-button ON/OFF control for three-phase motors up to 690 V AC (600 V UL). It offers an adjustable current range of 4–6.3 A and supports motor power up to 2.2 kW at 400/415 V, 3 kW at 500 V, and 5 HP at 575/600 V (UL applications). Mounted on a 35 mm DIN rail or panel, it uses spring terminals and delivers IP20 protection, 50/60 Hz operation, a rated insulation voltage of 690 V AC, and a 6 kV rated impulse withstand. The device is designed for industrial motor control and protection in MCCs, conveyors, pumps, compressors, fans, and automated equipment, with a thermal-magnetic trip and breaking capacities up to 100 kA Icu at 230/240–400/415 V, 50 kA at 440–500 V, and 3 kA at 690 V. Common replacements include Schneider Electric GV2ME10A, Siemens 3RV2011, and Eaton PKZM0-6.3.
