Allen-Bradley 500F-BOD930 Low-Voltage Motor Starter

Allen-Bradley 500F-BOD930 Low-Voltage Motor Starter is a 3-pole, NEMA-size-1 Open Contactor from the 500F family, designed to switch motor loads via a 24-volt coil. This configuration includes a W Auxiliary contact, providing an additional signaling path for control circuits or interlocks. The unit is designed for panel-mounted motor control and can be paired with compatible overload relays (for example 500F-EOD930) to provide thermal protection when needed. As a NEMA AC/DC starter, it handles motor loads while the 24V coil is energized to operate the three main power contacts; the compact form factor aligns with Rockwell Automation's 500F platform for straightforward replacement and integration. Typical applications include starting and stopping three-phase motors in conveyors, pumps, fans, and processing equipment, where a compact, low-voltage-control starter is advantageous. The BOD930 configuration specifies NEMA Size 1 with 24‑V coil and auxiliary contact, aligning with other 500F variants to support standard control-circuit practices in industrial automation.
