OEM Carrier 2-Pole Contactor 30 Amp 120V Coil — HN52KC052 for Model 09DE044900

This OEM Carrier contactor (part #HN52KC052) is the factory-specified high-voltage relay for the Carrier 09DE044900 HVAC unit. The contactor acts as the primary electrical switch that energizes the compressor and condenser fan motor every time your thermostat calls for cooling or heating. When the 24V control signal arrives, the contactor's 120V coil pulls in the armature, closing the high-voltage circuit to your load. When a contactor fails, symptoms include an air conditioner that won't turn on at all, a system that hums without starting, welded contacts that keep the compressor running constantly, or visible pitting and burn marks on the contact surfaces.

• Specs: 2-Pole | 30 Amp | 120V AC Coil | 50/60 Hz | OEM Part #HN52KC052 | Factory-matched electrical ratings
• OEM vs Generic: This is a genuine Carrier Factory Authorized Part. OEM contactors use silver-alloy contacts rated for your unit's exact amperage draw, preventing the premature pitting and arcing common in generic aftermarket units that use lower-grade contact materials.
• Install difficulty: 3/5 — Always disconnect power at the breaker and verify zero voltage with a multimeter before touching any terminals. Tools needed: flathead and Phillips screwdrivers, needle-nose pliers, multimeter, camera or phone to photograph existing wiring before disconnection. Tag each wire before removal.
• Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty. Ships same business day from our warehouse when ordered before cutoff.

Compatibility: Engineered as a direct OEM replacement for Carrier model 09DE044900. Verify pole count, amperage, and coil voltage against your unit's data plate and existing contactor label before ordering.
