OEM Carrier 2-Pole Contactor 30A 24V (HN52KC024) for Model 09BY016N601

This OEM contactor is the factory-specified replacement part for the Carrier 09BY016N601. The contactor is a high-voltage relay that opens and closes the electrical circuit to the compressor and condenser fan motor each time the thermostat calls for cooling. When the contactor fails — through pitted contacts, a burned coil, or a stuck plunger — the system will either fail to turn on entirely, run continuously without cycling off, or trip breakers due to arcing. Replacing it with a genuine OEM part restores factory-spec switching performance and protects expensive downstream components like the compressor.

• Specs: 2-Pole | 30 Amps | 24V coil voltage | 50/60 Hz | OEM Part Number HN52KC024 | Replaces HN52KC025
• OEM vs Generic: OEM contactors are manufactured to Carrier's exact coil pull-in voltage and contact gap tolerances. Generic units can exhibit slow pull-in under low-voltage conditions, accelerating contact pitting and shortening compressor life.
• Install Difficulty: 3/5 — Shut off power at the disconnect and breaker before beginning. Tools needed: flathead and Phillips screwdrivers, needle-nose pliers, multimeter. Photograph all wiring before disconnecting — typically L1, L2 (line), T1, T2 (load), and the 24V coil wires. Swap wires one at a time to avoid miswiring.
• Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty. Ships same business day from our warehouse when ordered before cutoff.

Compatibility: Designed for the Carrier 09BY016N601. Verify your existing contactor's pole count, amp rating, and coil voltage against your unit's data plate before ordering. Note: this part also replaces superseded OEM number HN52KC025. Questions about fitment? Our HVAC parts specialists verify compatibility before you buy — just reach out before placing your order.
