Schneider Electric GVAM11 Auxiliary Contact Block

The Schneider Electric Telemecanique GVAM11 Auxiliary Contact Block provides remote fault indication and short-circuit status signaling for GV2 and GV3 motor circuit breakers in industrial motor control systems. Typically installed in motor control centers, electrical control panels, conveyor systems, pumps, compressors, and automated production equipment, it is used by maintenance teams, OEMs, and system integrators for repair, retrofit, or automation maintenance. This GVAM11 features a 1 C/O (SPDT) contact for short-circuit signaling, and supports 24–240 VAC or 24–60 VDC operation with a conventional free-air thermal current rating of 2.5 A. It has a rated insulation voltage of 690 VAC (IEC) or 300 VAC (UL/CSA), and is designed for up to 100,000 mechanical cycles. The device’s minimum switching voltage is 17 V and minimum switching current is 5 mA. It mounts on the left side of compatible GV2/GV3 breakers and uses screw clamp terminals. Compatible breakers include GV2L, GV2LE, GV2ME, GV2P, GV2RT, GV3L, and GV3P, and the unit measures 89 × 9.3 × 66 mm. Aimed at industrial motor control and protection systems, it is part of the TeSys GV2/TeSys Deca family, and a common replacement option is the Schneider Electric GVAE11 Auxiliary Contact Block.
