The Schneider Electric TeSys Deca series (formerly known as TeSys GV2) represents the gold standard in motor control and protection. These compact, reliable manual motor starters are engineered to provide sophisticated thermal-magnetic protection for motors, ensuring operational continuity and enhanced safety in demanding industrial environments.
At the heart of the GV2 range is a commitment to equipment longevity. These devices serve as a primary interface between the power supply and the motor, offering two critical layers of protection:
- Thermal Protection: Safeguards the motor against overloads, preventing insulation damage caused by prolonged excessive current.
- Magnetic Protection: Provides instantaneous response to short circuits, disconnecting the power within milliseconds to prevent catastrophic equipment failure.
The TeSys Deca GV2 series is designed for motors up to 15 kW at 400 V, with a high breaking capacity that ensures resilience even under rigorous electrical faults.
Key Features and Technical Excellence
The GV2 range is celebrated for its versatility and ease of integration. Whether you are building a simple control panel or a complex automated system, these starters offer:
- Manual Control: Intuitive ergonomic control via push-button or rotary handle mechanisms, allowing for clear "ON/OFF" or "Trip" status indication.
- Adjustable Current Settings: A precise adjustment dial allows the thermal protection to be tailored to the specific Full Load Current (FLC) of your motor.
- Phase Failure Sensitivity: Built-in protection against single-phasing, which is a common cause of motor burnout.
- Compact Footprint: A standard 45 mm width ensures efficient use of space on DIN rails, facilitating high-density installations.
Why Choose TeSys Deca GV2?
Schneider Electric has refined the TeSys Deca range to be Green Premium certified, reflecting a balance of high performance and environmental sustainability. By choosing GV2, you are investing in:
