GV2ME16 Schneider Electric Motor circuit breaker TeSys GV2 3P 9-14 A thermal magneti
The Schneider Electric GV2ME16 is a high-performance motor protection circuit breaker (MPCB) from the renowned TeSys Giga series, engineered to deliver integrated overload and short-circuit protection for three-phase AC induction motors rated up to 8 A at 400 V AC. Designed for durability, compactness, and global compliance, the GV2ME16 is ideal for a wide range of industrial applications—including pumps, fans, compressors, conveyors, and machine tools—where dependable, space-saving motor control is critical.
Featuring a thermal-magnetic tripping mechanism, the GV2ME16 combines precise bimetallic overload protection with instantaneous electromagnetic short-circuit response in a single device—eliminating the need for separate fuses or thermal overload relays in many standard installations. Its rugged construction meets international standards such as IEC 60947-4-1, UL 508, and CSA C22.2 No. 14, ensuring safe and reliable operation across North America, Europe, Asia, and beyond.
