When it may not be suitable

This device is a magnetic-only circuit breaker and does not provide thermal overload protection. It is not suitable for applications where thermal protection is required unless paired with a separate thermal overload relay. Additionally, it is intended for professional electrical installations and should not be used in residential settings without proper technical oversight.

Key specifications

• Number of poles: 3
• Rated operational current: 32A
• Power rating: 15kW
• Depth: 97 mm
• Height: 89 mm
• Weight: 330 g

How to use

The TeSys GV2L32 is designed for mounting on standard DIN rails within an electrical enclosure. Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician in accordance with local electrical codes. The device is connected to the motor circuit to provide magnetic protection; ensure that the wiring is securely tightened to the terminals to prevent overheating. Once installed, the breaker can be manually operated using the front-facing toggle switch to control the power supply to the motor.

What to consider before purchase

• Verify that your motor's power requirements match the 15kW rating.
• Ensure that you have a separate thermal protection device if your application requires it.
• Check the available space in your control cabinet against the device dimensions.
• Confirm that the installation environment meets the necessary safety standards for industrial electrical equipment.

Usage recommendations

Always ensure the power supply is disconnected before performing any installation or maintenance work on the circuit breaker. Regularly inspect the terminals for tightness and check for any signs of wear or environmental damage to ensure continued safe operation.
