TeSys GV2P16 Manual Motor Starter/Protector (9-14A, 690VAC, 3-Pole)
The TeSys GV2P Manual Motor Starter and Protector (MPN: GV2P16) is a highly reliable and compact electrical component essential for safeguarding and controlling motors in industrial settings, such as car wash tunnel Motor Control Center (MCC) panels. This robust 3-pole device integrates multiple critical functions into a single unit: manual isolation for safe power disconnection, manual motor control via an intuitive rotary handle, and crucial thermal-magnetic protection against both overcurrents and short-circuits.
With a precise current adjustment range of 9 to 14 Amperes and an operational voltage rating of up to 690 VAC, the GV2P16 is versatile for a wide range of motor sizes. Its impressive breaking capacity includes 6 kA at 690 VAC and up to 100 kA at lower voltages (230/240V, 400/415V), ensuring robust fault protection. Designed for seamless integration into control systems, it is typically paired with a contactor for a complete motor control assembly.
The unit features screw clamp terminals for secure and straightforward wiring. Its compact dimensions (3.5 in H x 1.8 in W x 3.8 in D) and flexible mounting options (35mm DIN rail or direct panel mounting) make it adaptable to diverse panel layouts. Engineered for uninterrupted rated duty and capable of operating in extreme temperatures (-4°F to 140°F), the GV2P16 guarantees reliable performance. As a product from Schneider Electric, it adheres to stringent environmental standards and boasts extensive international certifications (UL, CSA, IEC, etc.), underscoring its quality and safety.
