Schneider Electric GV3 Series Thermal Circuit Breaker, 18A Current, 690V AC Rated AC Voltage - GV3P18
This thermal circuit-breaker provides thermal-magnetic motor protection for three-phase AC networks up to 690 V. Designed for use in control panels and DIN-rail systems, it interrupts fault currents and protects motors within its adjustable thermal range while allowing manual reset via a toggle-style actuator.
Features & Benefits
• 100 kA breaking capacity delivers high short-circuit interruption performance
• 12 to 18A thermal adjustment protects motors across load variations
• 18A conventional thermal current for continuous-duty applications
• 252A magnetic trip limits damage from high short-duration faults
• Screw terminals with EverLink compatibility ensure secure conductor connection
• 12 to 18A thermal adjustment protects motors across load variations
• 18A conventional thermal current for continuous-duty applications
• 252A magnetic trip limits damage from high short-duration faults
• Screw terminals with EverLink compatibility ensure secure conductor connection
Applications
• Suitable for motor protection in industrial control panels
• Ideal for starters handling 7.5 kW to 15 kW motors depending on voltage
• used with contactor assemblies in automation installations
• Can be used for retrofit protection on 35mm DIN rails
• Ideal for starters handling 7.5 kW to 15 kW motors depending on voltage
• used with contactor assemblies in automation installations
• Can be used for retrofit protection on 35mm DIN rails
What mounting options are available for installation?
It can be clipped onto 35mm symmetrical DIN rail or fastened to a panel using three M4 screws, allowing flexible mounting in cabinets or on equipment frames.
How does it perform under elevated ambient temperatures?
Thermal trip settings cover the 12 to 18A range to compensate for varying ambient conditions and maintain motor protection over the specified -20 to 60 °C operating range.
What mechanical and electrical life can be expected?
The device is rated for 50,000 mechanical cycles and 50,000 electrical cycles for AC-3 use at 415 V, supporting frequent switching in industrial environments.
Are there protection degrees and environmental tolerances to consider?
The enclosure meets IK09 impact resistance and provides IP20 protection
it also withstands storage from -40 to 80 °C and complies with the specified vibration and shock limits.
