OEM Carrier 2-Pole 30 Amp 120V Contactor HN52KC052 for Model 09DE098600

This genuine OEM contactor is the factory-specified replacement for the Carrier 09DE098600. The contactor acts as a high-voltage relay, using a low-voltage coil signal to close the circuit and deliver power to the compressor and condenser fan motor. When a contactor fails, symptoms range from audible chattering or humming at the unit, the system failing to start entirely, or — in the case of welded contacts — the unit running continuously and refusing to shut off even when the thermostat is satisfied.

• Specs: 2-Pole | 30 Amp (FLA) | 120V Coil | 50/60 Hz | OEM Part # HN52KC052 | Cross-ref: 3100-20T628
• OEM vs Generic: This is a genuine Carrier Factory Authorized Part, built to exact OEM contact gap, coil pull-in voltage, and amp rating specifications. Generic contactors may use inferior contact materials that pit or weld prematurely under high cycling loads, leading to compressor damage.
• Install difficulty: 3/5 — Always disconnect power at the disconnect box and verify zero voltage with a multimeter before touching any terminals. Tools needed: flathead and Phillips screwdrivers, 1/4" nut driver, needle-nose pliers, non-contact voltage tester. Photograph all wiring before removal. Line-side lugs carry lethal voltage — exercise extreme caution.
• Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty. In-stock units ship the same business day from our warehouse — get your system back online fast.

Compatibility: Engineered as a direct OEM replacement for Carrier model 09DE098600. The 120V coil voltage is critical — verify your unit's coil voltage on the wiring diagram or data plate before ordering, as 24V and 120V coil contactors are not interchangeable.
