Ordering Options
Depending on the type of open style contactor or starter that choose, you can decide which ordering method suits your needs best.
• Individual Components: You select individual catalog numbers of each component and accessory, to build up a contactor or starter.
• Modular Kits: You select one catalog number. This catalog number will include your selected accessories which are all shipped
together (unassembled), along with the base contactor or starter. This method saves lead time.
• Factory Assembled: You select one catalog string and the factory assembles your selected options and accessories to the contactor
or starter, before it gets shipped.
Product Comparison
Bulletin 500 top-wired contactors can be ordered as modular kits or individual components, as follows:
• Modular kit (sizes 0…4) (single catalog number, pre-stocked modular components shipped in one carton to reduce lead time)
• User assembled (sizes 0…4) (list of kitted components)
• Factory assembled (sizes 00 and 5) (single catalog number)

(1) Service-Limit Current Ratings — The service-limit current ratings that are shown represent the maximum rms current, in amperes, which the controller shall be permitted to carry for
protracted periods in normal service. At service-limit current ratings, temperature rises shall be permitted to exceed those obtained by testing the controller at its continuous current
rating. The current rating of overload relays or the trip current of other motor protective devices that are used shall not exceed the service-limit current rating of the controller.
(2) Plugging or Jogging Service — The listed horsepower ratings are recommended for those applications requiring repeated interruption of stalled motor current that is encountered in rapid
motor reversal in excess of five openings or closings per minute and shall not be more than ten in a ten minute period.
(3) If maximum available current (at capacitor terminals) is greater than 3000 A, contact your local Rockwell Automation sales office, Allen-Bradley distributor, or NEMA ICS-2 Standard.

Load-life Curves
Bulletin 500 Line contactors and starters are designed to provide high performance in various applications. These load-life curves are based
on Rockwell Automation tests according to the requirements defined in IEC 947-4. Actual contact life may vary based on the application, duty
cycle, and environmental conditions from that indicated by the curves.
To find the contactor’s estimated electrical life, follow these guidelines:
• Choose the appropriate graph that most closely approximates the utilization category of the application.
• Locate the intersection of the life-load curve of the appropriate contactor with the application’s operational current (Ie) found on the
horizontal axis.
• Read the estimated contact life in millions of operations along the vertical axis.
In many applications, the utilization category cannot be defined as either purely AC3 or AC4. In those applications, the electrical life of the
contactor can be estimated from the following equation:
L AC3
L mixed =
(
L
1 + PAC4 AC3 – 1
L AC4 )
Where:
L mixed= Approximate contact life for a mixed AC3/AC4 utilization category application
L AC3= Approximate contact life in operations for AC3 utilization category (from AC3 life-load curves below)
L AC4= Approximate contact life in operations for AC4 utilization category (from AC4 life-load curves below)
P AC4= Percentage of AC4 operations
