The Schneider GV2RT08 is a robust and reliable motor protection circuit breaker designed to offer efficient and secure operation for a wide range of industrial applications. This three-pole device is engineered to provide thermal-magnetic protection, ensuring motors are safeguarded against both overload and short-circuit conditions. With a rated current of 4 A and an adjustable thermal protection range of 2.5 to 4 A, it can be finely tuned to match the specific requirements of your motor.

The GV2RT08 boasts a substantial breaking capacity, capable of handling 100 kA at 400/415 V AC 50/60 Hz, in accordance with IEC 60947-2 standards, making it suitable for high-performance applications. The circuit breaker is designed for easy mounting on a 35 mm symmetrical DIN rail or can be screwed onto a panel with an adaptor plate, providing flexibility in installation.

This circuit breaker is equipped with a toggle control type for straightforward manual operation. It also features a magnetic tripping current of 78 A, ensuring rapid response in the event of a short circuit. The GV2RT08 is built to last, with a mechanical durability of 100,000 cycles and an electrical durability also rated at 100,000 cycles for AC-3 usage at 440 V, signifying its capability to withstand the demands of frequent operation.

With a rated operational voltage of 690 V AC 50/60 Hz and a rated insulation voltage of the same, this device is suitable for a wide range of network voltages, further enhancing its versatility. The GV2RT08 is also designed with safety in mind, meeting the requirements for suitability for isolation according to IEC 60947-1 § 7-1-6.

The compact dimensions of the GV2RT08, with a height of 89 mm, a width of 45 mm, and a depth of 78.5 mm, ensure it does not occupy excessive space within electrical enclosures. Its power dissipation per pole is a modest 2.5 W, contributing to a more energy-efficient operation.

In summary, the Schneider GV2RT08 is a high-quality, adaptable, and durable solution for motor circuit protection, offering precise protection settings and reliable performance in a wide array of industrial environments.
