FAQ

The main difference is the control type. The GV2ME series, like this GV2ME20, uses push-buttons for START/STOP control. The GV2P series uses a rotary knob. Both offer similar thermal-magnetic protection.

Yes, the TeSys GV2 series is modular. You can add auxiliary contact blocks (like the GVAE or GVAN series) to the front or side of the GV2ME20 to provide status signals for your control system.

The thermal protection should be set to the motor's full load ampere (FLA) rating, which can be found on the motor's nameplate. The dial on the front of the GV2ME20 allows you to adjust the setting precisely within its 13-18A range.
