What is the function of this motor circuit breaker?

The Schneider GV2P06 is designed to provide protection for motors by combining both thermal and magnetic tripping mechanisms. It safeguards the motor from overload and short-circuit conditions, ensuring safe and reliable operation.

Can this device be used for isolation purposes?

Yes, the GV2P06 is suitable for isolation according to IEC 60947-1 standards, allowing it to be used to ensure a circuit is completely de-energised for service or maintenance.

What are the mounting options for this circuit breaker?

This motor circuit breaker can be mounted on a 35 mm symmetrical DIN rail with a clip-on mechanism or it can be screwed onto a panel using M4 screws, providing flexibility for different installation requirements.

What is the rated operational voltage of this device?

The rated operational voltage for the GV2P06 is 690 V AC 50/60 Hz, conforming to IEC 60947-2 standards.

How does the thermal-magnetic trip feature work?

The thermal-magnetic trip feature of the GV2P06 utilises a bimetallic strip for thermal protection, which responds to overcurrent conditions caused by overload, and an electromagnetic mechanism that trips the breaker instantly during short-circuit conditions.

What is the breaking capacity of this motor circuit breaker?

The GV2P06 has a breaking capacity of 100 kA at 230/240 V AC, 400/415 V AC, 440 V AC, 500 V AC, and 690 V AC 50/60 Hz, conforming to IEC 60947-2.

Is the GV2P06 sensitive to phase failure?

Yes, the GV2P06 is sensitive to phase failure, which means it can detect when one of the phases in a three-phase system is lost and will trip to protect the motor.

What is the thermal protection adjustment range for this device?

The thermal protection adjustment range for the GV2P06 is from 1 to 1.6 A, allowing for precise setting according to the motor's current requirements.

What are the dimensions of the GV2P06?

The dimensions of the GV2P06 are 89 mm in height, 45 mm in width, and 97 mm in depth, making it a compact device suitable for various installations.

How durable is this motor circuit breaker?

The GV2P06 is built for durability, with a mechanical endurance of 100,000 cycles and an electrical durability of 100,000 cycles for AC-3 usage at 415 V, ensuring a long service life.
