OEM Carrier 2-Pole Contactor 30 Amp 120V Coil (HN52KC052) for Model 09DE164600

This is the genuine OEM factory replacement contactor for the Carrier 09DE164600 HVAC unit. The contactor is the high-voltage switching relay that closes the power circuit to your compressor and condenser fan motor every time your thermostat calls for cooling. When it fails, the unit may refuse to start, run continuously even when cooling is satisfied, chatter loudly in the electrical panel, or show visible signs of arcing and burned contacts. Replacing a worn contactor is one of the highest-impact, most cost-effective repairs in HVAC service.

• Specs: 2-Pole | 30 Amp FLA | 120V Coil | 50/60 Hz | Part Number HN52KC052 | Cross-reference: 3100-20T628 | Factory-matched contact gap and spring tension
• OEM vs Generic: Genuine Carrier OEM contactors are built to exact factory coil voltage and contact-material specifications. Off-brand substitutes frequently use lower-grade silver-alloy contacts that pit and weld faster under load, leading to repeat failures within a single season.
• Install Difficulty: 2/5 — Always disconnect power at the breaker and verify zero voltage with a meter before touching any wiring. Tools needed: flathead and Phillips screwdrivers, needle-nose pliers, multimeter. Photograph all wire positions before removal. Swap wires one at a time to avoid miswiring.
• Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty. Orders placed by our daily cutoff ship same business day from our warehouse — no waiting weeks for a backorder.

Compatibility: Designed as the factory-specified contactor for Carrier model 09DE164600.
