IntelliVAC Features

A range of supply voltage (110 – 240V AC 50/60 Hz, 110 - 250V DC) 
allows implementation in multiple applications.

Consistent vacuum contactor pick-up time (at a given supply voltage) 
ensures repeatable performance.

Selectable vacuum contactor drop-out time improves coordination with 
upstream power fuses.

Electronic altitude compensation (Bulletin 1502 400 A only) eliminates 
mechanical compensation required for altitudes above 1000 meters 
(Bulletin 1502 800 A contactors include a user-friendly mechanical 
altitude adjustment).
