IntelliCENTER Technology
IntelliCENTER technology enhances the intelligence of the CENTERLINE 1500 MV MCC by using built-in networking to capture information
used for predictive maintenance, process monitoring, and advanced diagnostics. IntelliCENTER technology can save you time because each
MV MCC is pre-wired, and the network is pre-programmed and validated at the factory. Network devices are preconfigured with node
addresses and communication rates, ready to communicate so you can configure device parameters (such as acceleration time and full load
amps) via the network.
IntelliCENTER Software
The addition of IntelliCENTER software provides the ultimate window into your MV MCC. The preconfigured software provides maintenance
personnel with easy access to real-time critical CENTERLINE MV MCC configured information and process data for troubleshooting. The
configurable graphic views provide system status at a glance and help keep facilities running with electronic documentation, remote
diagnostics, and predictive maintenance. IntelliCENTER software significantly reduces HMI programming time and PLC development time
with automatic tag generation and even complete network configuration before the MV MCC is powered up.
Integration Assistant
With IntelliCENTER Integration Assistant, you can seamlessly integrate your IntelliCENTER MV MCCs into Studio 5000® programming software.
This feature helps reduce programming time by automatically adding the CENTERLINE MCC devices to the Studio 5000 I/O tree.
IntelliCENTER Energy
IntelliCENTER Energy offers a preconfigured setup of FactoryTalk® EnergyMetrix™ software for intelligent motor control devices in the MV
MCC, including variable speed drives, overload relays, and SMCs. With IntelliCENTER Energy, you can view energy consumption at the device
level directly from IntelliCENTER software, making it easier to monitor and manage energy usage in the industrial facility.

ArcShield Technology
Allen-Bradley CENTERLINE 1500 MV MCCs with ArcShield arc-resistant enclosures provide rugged process control for applications that
require a higher level of personnel protection. Products with ArcShield enclosures are tested and compliant to the IEEE C37.20.7 standard,
and provide Type 2B protection during a 40 kA or 50 kA arc flash.
The ArcShield controller helps safely redirect the arc flash energy out the top of the unit and away from personnel. This level of protection is
also maintained, even when the low voltage door is open for maintenance purposes.
All ArcShield products have a robust enclosure design, which contains the arc flash energy and exhaust materials until vents on top of the
enclosure open. Once opened, the vents provide a path for materials to exit the enclosure. An overhead plenum is used to direct the
materials to a safe location away from personnel.
An optional chimney design redirects arc flash materials safely into clear space above the enclosure. The low voltage panel is reinforced and
sealed, to help prevent arc flash exhaust materials from entering this compartment.
As standard, a plenum exhaust section is provided with each new ArcShield order. The plenum exhaust section can be mounted on either the
left or right end of the line-up, and it extends past the end of the line-up. Engineered plenum designs are also available.

Notes:

An EtherNet/IP™ network enhances integration, helps reduce your MCC set-up time, and increases the network speed. With EtherNet/IP
technology, you can quickly monitor, troubleshoot, and diagnose your MCC from anywhere. CENTERLINE® MCCs provide robust motor control
capabilities with access to the real-time data you need by using a network that communicates with your entire enterprise. Use of an
EtherNet/IP network enables IntelliCENTER® Integration Assistant that automatically configures and populates your I/O tree and network
configuration.
The cost and performance of a EtherNet/IP network makes them ideal for MCC applications. Open specifications and protocol, managed by
the Open DeviceNet Vendor Association (ODVA), means that vendors are not required to purchase hardware, software, or licensing rights to
connect to a system.
An EtherNet/IP system is qualified to communicate and perform under normal and adverse electrical environments. Its application can be
plant-wide and over multiple disciplines through commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) products like Ethernet switches and devices.
An EtherNet/IP system has the following capabilities:

• Automatic Device Configuration (ADC) automatically downloads the IP address, firmware, and device parameter settings to a newly
replaced device without user interaction.
• Switch-level linear or switch-level ring topologies provide network flexibility for any sized operation.
• Heavy traffic performance.
• Add or subtract nodes on-the-fly.
• Advanced network configuration, security, and diagnostics are provided by layer-2 managed Ethernet switches.
• The EtherNet/IP system in the MCC is designed to operate at 100 Mbaud.
For more information on how to configure MCCs with EtherNet/IP, refer to CENTERLINE 1500 Motor Control Center with IntelliCENTER
Technology Using an EtherNet/IP Network Technical Data, publication 1500-TD001.
Example of an EtherNet/IP Network

EtherNet/IP Components
Unit Components
Each unit can be provided with an EtherNet/IP component.

• Starter units can be provided with a solid-state overload relay, like the E300™ Electronic Overload Relay.
• AC drives can be provided with an EtherNet/IP communication module and/or an embedded option.
• Solid-state controllers can be provided with EtherNet/IP communication modules and, in some instances, an EtherNet/IP
POINT I/O™ system.
• Feeder circuits can be provided with an EtherNet/IP POINT I/O system.
Each EtherNet/IP component in an MCC unit is connected to the network through a port in the control and network wireway. Adding or
removing units from the network does not interrupt the other units operating in the system. Network wireways are isolated from the power
wire.
Cabling
Ethernet cables are routed through the low voltage wireway, located on the top of each MV MCC section, to prevent accidental mechanical
damage during MV MCC installation.
Ethernet cables are routed into the low voltage control panel of each MV MCC unit. The EtherNet/IP devices within each low voltage
compartment are factory connected to a managed Ethernet switch in the LV compartment using 600V UL PLTC rated cable.
IntelliCENTER Software Features

The CENTERLINE 1500 MCC is available with preconfigured IntelliCENTER software. IntelliCENTER software is an intuitive software package
that is customized to your MCC. The software is a monitoring and diagnostics tool capable of viewing, managing, and configuring multiple
MCC line-ups. The IntelliCENTER software communication driver lets the software be installed and operated on an EtherNet/IP network. The
IntelliCENTER software can function as a standalone software package or as an ActiveX control in an HMI.
The IntelliCENTER software features:

• Integration Assistant - takes customized MCC information within the IntelliCENTER software and exports it to Studio 5000®
programming software, providing quick device integration and reducing programming time.
• IntelliCENTER Energy - energy monitoring and management with integration to FactoryTalk® EnergyMetrix™ software.
• Elevation View - an easy-to-identify, graphical representation of your entire MCC lineup.
• Monitor View - an overview of the intelligent motor control device being monitored, with configurable gauges, trend graphs, I/O
status on the device and configurable data fields.
• Spreadsheet View - for sorting and editing data that seldom changes, including network address, device type and description, and
nameplate data.
• Event Log View - a history of changes to equipment parameters, like trip settings, warnings, and faults.
• Documentation Management - access to the complete documentation for your MCC, including wiring diagrams, device manuals, and
spare parts list.

IntelliCENTER Database
The IntelliCENTER software replicates the MCC lineup on a computer screen, complete with nameplates and indicators on each door to show
status (on, off, warning, fault, communication failure). Graphical views of individual MCC units display device data so you can quickly view
critical amperes, time-to-trip, trip cause, ground fault amperes, and on/off status. Each screen is pre-configured to show the parameters
typically of greatest interest, and you can easily customize parameters. Many screens feature trending graphs and analog dials.
The IntelliCENTER software provides spare parts information, AutoCAD documentation, and event logging. The software also contains ActiveX
controls. These controls provide key views of the software that can be displayed inside Human Machine Interfaces (HMIs) such as RSView®
software.
For EtherNet/IP networks, the configuration file can help in determining the installed firmware revision to properly configure the
Studio 5000 environment Add-on Profile (AOP) that generates all tags for each EtherNet/IP device in the MCC.
Two datasets are available for IntelliCENTER software. Both must be ordered separately from the MCC unit.
Standard Dataset–The standard dataset is the second component of the IntelliCENTER software. The information arrives as a digital
download, and contains data files specific to a particular MCC. This information includes unit nameplates, unit details, wiring diagrams, user
manuals, spare parts, and other details.
Energy Dataset–The energy dataset includes all components of the standard dataset. Additionally, it includes the ability to use the features
of IntelliCENTER Energy (version 4.0 and later) and the additional installation software needed.

All unpainted steel parts are plated for corrosion resistance.
Nameplates
Choose a 3- or 6-line nameplate with black letters on a white background, or white letters on black background.
Low Voltage Wireway

An optional low voltage wireway is located across the roof of the structure.
There are two sizes of low voltage wireway available:

• 51 x 102 mm (2 x 4 in.)
• 152 x 152 mm (6 x 6 in.)
The low voltage wireway provides a convenient method of interconnecting control wire from one controller to another when interfacing with
a master panel or with programmable controller circuits.

Notes:

The power bus provides a number of useful functions, such as incoming line cables can be terminated directly to the power bus. Additionally,
the power bus of several cabinets can be joined together to form an electrically continuous lineup. There are bolted 12 gauge back plates
that allow access from the rear. There are removable side plates on each side of the cabinet for side access.
Horizontal Bus
The main horizontal power bus is located at the center rear of the structure to provide optimum heat distribution, ease of maintenance, and
splicing. The power bus is mounted on the edge to a molded bus support insulator in a common vertical plane. This mounting method
provides superior short-circuit withstand capability and protection against the accumulation of dust and tracking between phases. Access
must be provided to the bus compartment from the front or the rear of the structure to allow for installation and regular maintenance of the
power and ground bus splice connections. Choose one of the following continuous current ratings: 1200, 2000, or 3000 amps.
The power bus is tin-plated copper (standard) but silver-plated option is available. In addition, for the main horizontal bus, you choose the
option of an insulated bus.
The material is a sleeve-type, heat shrink insulating material with good flame resistance and self-extinguishing properties. This material has
a minimum wall thickness of 1.4 mm (0.055 in.), and provides a minimum dielectric strength of 49.5 kV (900V/mil).
Vertical Bus
Vertical power bus risers are provided from the main horizontal power bus to the unit isolating switch line terminals. Risers are made of tin-
plated copper and rated according to the unit size.
Bus and Cable Bracing

The horizontal/vertical bus work and the cabling/bus in the main power cell are braced and tested in accordance with NEMA ICS 3-2 and
UL 347 to withstand the let-through energy allowed by the largest fuse during a short-circuit fault.
Ground Bus
The standard ground bus is 9.5 x 51 mm (3/8 x 2 in.) bare copper with an option for tin plating.
A mechanical lug for 8-1/0 AWG or 6-250 MCM cable is supplied at the incoming end of the lineup.

Notes:

The power cell is the heart of the controller. It consists of five basic component groups:
• Non-load break isolation switch
• Current limiting power fuses
• Control power transformer
• Vacuum contactor
• Current transformers
Non-load Break Isolation Switch

The isolation switch is a non-load break type switch, and is available in clip-on
or bolt-on fuse versions. The isolation switch works in conjunction with the
contactor and the isolation switch handle to isolate the power cell when the
isolation switch handle is moved to the OFF position.
The power cell door is interlocked with the handle mechanism to help prevent
the door from being opened when the cell is energized. The state of the isolation
switch can be quickly determined through a polycarbonate viewing window.

Control Power Transformers

The standard CPT transforms the primary side medium voltage to a single-phase 120V or
240 V secondary side voltage to run the control circuitry efficiently in the isolated low
voltage compartment. The CPT features a standard accuracy of ±4%, with the option of
±1% accuracy per customer request.
As standard, the dry-type CPT must be 500 VA in size, with approximately 350 VA extra
capacity. Appropriately sized primary and secondary fuses are supplied. Optional sizes of
1000 VA, 2000 VA and 3000 VA control power transformers must also be available. The
secondary circuit of the transformer is disconnected from the control circuit by means of
the isolating switch auxiliary contacts to prevent backfeeding through the transformer
and to isolate the power cell when the control circuit is in the test mode.
IMPORTANT The control power transformers may be used for metering, but only
if the accuracy of the application does not require conformance to
any potential transformer accuracy ratings.
The maximum quantity/size of the CPT available in a two-high FVNR
controller rated 7200 volts is two 500 VA (with bolt-on power fuses),
or one 1000 VA and one 500 VA (with clip-on power fuses).
Current Transformers
CENTERLINE 1500 MVMCCs use two styles of current transformers; donut type
and bar type. Three of either types are used for overload protection and
metering. Optional ground fault (zero sequence style) current transformers
are also available.
The medium voltage power cell includes three current transformers of

sufficient VA capacity to meet the requirements of all the devices connected
to them.
Each current transformer has the primary rating sized appropriately in

relation to the full-load current rating of the load. The secondary of the
current transformers has a 5 A output and an accuracy suitable for the type
and quantity of protection or metering devices connected to it. All current
transformer control wiring are terminated on the current transformer with
locking-type, fork tongue lugs.
Ground Fault Current Transformer

The power cell has provisions to locate a toroid (donut) style, ground fault
sensing current transformer, when the optional zero sequence ground fault
protection feature is required.
Load Cable Terminations

When either bar- or donut-type current transformers are supplied,
appropriate load termination points is provided to accommodate lugs with
single or two-hole mounting to connect the load cables.

Integrated Protective Maintenance Grounding Device

The Integrated Protective Maintenance Grounding device (IPMG) is an
optional feature that provides an over-center, spring loaded, snap action
device that provides a low impedance grounding path for all load
connections on CENTERLINE™ Bulletin 1500/1900 medium voltage motor
Main Power and Ground Bus controllers. The IPMG device can make and withstand short-circuit
currents within its capabilities, from both feeding directions within the
IS motor controller, without any latching mechanism. It is applied to safely
ground/earth the load connections to three-phase motors, power
transformers, and power capacitors ensuring that no harmful voltages
R/E Type are left or become present on the load connections before maintenance
personnel enter the motor controller or service the equipment at the end
Mechanical Interlock
of the load cable connections.
The compact design of the IPMG device does not compromise its rugged
construction and proven performance under industrial operating
conditions. Requiring minimal maintenance, this manually operated
IPMG
device is controlled from the outside of the standard and arc-resistant
(ArcShield™) medium voltage controllers. It is mechanically interlocked to
both the main vacuum contactor and our non-load break isolation switch.

Bulletin 1503VC IntelliVAC Contactor Control Modules

The Bulletin 1503VC IntelliVAC controllers offer an excellent, efficient, and flexible
means to control Bulletin 1502 vacuum contactors. The IntelliVAC control module
family offers a scalable solution for multiple medium voltage control applications. A
wire harness for 1502 vacuum contactors is generally required.
IntelliVAC Control Module

The IntelliVAC module provides basic control capabilities for 400 A, 450 A, and 800 A
contactors (electrically held and mechanical latch) using a single device. It offers
enhanced reliability through better diagnostics and coordination between the
power fuses and the vacuum contactor drop-out time. Productivity is improved
using the power loss ride through (TDUV) and contactor re-closing control features.
• Universal input voltage (110…240V AC, 50/60 Hz or 110…250V DC)
• Consistent vacuum contactor pick-up time
• Selectable and repeatable vacuum contactor drop-out times
(50, 75, 100, 130, 150, 175, 200, or 240 ms)
• Altitude compensation (-1000…+5000 m) eliminates mechanical hardware
changes at high altitude (450 A vacuum contactors)
• Power loss ride-through logic (TDUV) with selectable drop out time
(0.2, 0.5, 1.0, or 2.0 s) requires only an external capacitor
• Re-closing control features (anti-kiss and anti-pumping protection)
• Status indication (LEDs and relay outputs) allows integration in control
system and aids troubleshooting
• Temporary motor jog function (separate input) to allow process set-up
• Delayed motor re-start prevents rapid cycling of vacuum contactor,
protecting the connector motor
