★ Bulletin 500L and 500FL require a normally open auxiliary contact when used with a push button. See Contactor Accessories . Only one push button or one selector switch (not both) may be added to a Bulletin 509 for NEMA Type 1 without transformers. Only one pilot light may be added to a Bulletin 509 Type 1 without transformers.
‡ Bolted suitable for Type 7 & 9 or Type 3R, 7 & 9.
§ Unilock suitable for Type 7 & 9 or Type 3R, 7 & 9 with the addition of a drain or breather and drain.
♣ OFF pilot lights for non-reversing and non-multi-speed applications require a normally closed auxiliary contact add -91 to Cat. No. Red and amber (up to
240V AC) are the only colors available on Type 1 non-combination starters (lift-off). On non-combination starters (hinged), specify other lens colors by changing the letter to: A = Amber; B = Blue; C = Clear; G = Green; W = White.
∆ For multi-speed and reversing starters, one pilot light for each contactor. Add additional letters to identify two lens colors. The first letter specifies FORWARD, HIGH, or ON; the second letter specifies REVERSE, LOW, or OFF; e.g., 4AG.

∆ Multiple auxiliary contacts are to be group coded: e.g. use 9 followed by second digit for each auxiliary used: 90-91-98 group coded to “9018”. Maximum quantity of auxuliary contacts (any type) group coded shall be 5.
◆ For Bulletins 505 and 520 devices, one auxiliary contact is installed on each of the two contactors.
♠ Order by description.
∇ Contactors provided on short mounting plate, please contact your local Rockwell Automation sales office or Allen-Bradley distributor for dimensions.
& Only one relay per starter.
♯ Through control wiring the starter is forced to operate in the low speed before switching to high speed.
