Description

The Allen-Bradley 1503VC-BMC4 is an IntelliVAC contactor control module for medium-voltage vacuum contactor applications. It is part of the Bulletin 1503VC IntelliVAC family, which provides scalable solutions for controlling Bulletin 1502 vacuum contactors rated at 400 A and 800 A up to 7,200 volts.

The module accepts a universal input voltage range of 110–240 V AC (50/60 Hz) or 110–250 V DC, enabling implementation across multiple applications and global power systems without requiring voltage-specific variants. Maximum idle current draw is 125 mA. Inrush current is limited to 25 A for one-half cycle. Close current duration is 200 ms with maximum close currents of 11.3 A for 400 A contactors and 4.8 A for 800 A contactors.

Information

Overview Manuals Engineering Considerations Product Applications Wiring and Connections

Features:

  • 110‑240V AC, 110‑250V DC supply
  • Consistent pick‑up time at given voltage
  • Selectable drop‑out time for fuse coordination
  • Electronic altitude comp (450A). Mechanical for 800A
  • Power loss ride‑through (TDUV). May need capacitor
  • Anti‑kiss & anti‑pumping protection
IntelliVAC is an efficient and flexible solution for controlling mediumvoltage vacuum contactors used in motor starter and feederapplications. IntelliVAC may be used to control both 400 and 800Amp contactors. Electrically held and mechanically latched contactortypes can be controlled with IntelliVAC.

The 1503VC-BMC4 Allen-Bradley CONTACTOR CONTROL MODULE may still be available for purchase and support from Amikon Limited beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

Anti-kiss and anti-pumping protection ensure that the vacuum contactor close–open sequence occurs as expected, avoiding rapid reclosure due to faulty control devices or contact bounce. Delayed restart protects the contactor by ensuring the rated duty cycle is not exceeded during rapid cycling conditions. A temporary jog function (electrically held contactors only) allows the motor to be positioned for process set-up without engaging the normal starting sequence.
The module is DIP switch configurable, allowing field adjustment of control parameters without programming tools or software. Status indication is provided through LEDs and relay outputs, enabling integration into higher-level control systems and aiding troubleshooting.

Technical notes

The 1503VC-BMC4 provides consistent vacuum contactor pick-up time at a given supply voltage, ensuring repeatable and synchronized switching performance. Selectable and repeatable drop-out times (50, 75, 100, 130, 150, 175, 200, or 240 ms) enable tighter coordination with upstream power fuses, improving system protection selectivity.
