OEM Carrier 2-Pole Contactor 120V 30 Amp — HN52KC052 for Model 09DE164C600

This is the genuine OEM Carrier contactor (part number HN52KC052), factory-specified for the Carrier 09DE164C600. The contactor acts as a high-voltage relay, energizing when the thermostat calls for cooling and closing the circuit to the compressor and condenser fan motor. When the contactor fails — due to pitted contacts, a welded/stuck plunger, or a burned coil — your system will either fail to start entirely, run continuously without shutting off, or produce an audible buzzing or chattering sound from the electrical panel or disconnect box.

• Specs: 2-Pole | 120V AC Coil | 30 Amp Rating | 60 Hz | Screw terminal connections | Single phase
• OEM vs Generic: This is a genuine Factory Authorized Part built to Carrier's exact electrical tolerances. Aftermarket contactors frequently use lower-grade contact material, leading to accelerated pitting, premature failure, and potential compressor damage from voltage drops.
• Install Difficulty: 2/5 — Always disconnect power at both the breaker and the disconnect box before proceeding. Tools needed: flathead and Phillips screwdrivers, 1/4" nut driver, needle-nose pliers, voltage tester. Photograph all wire positions before removal. One-for-one wire transfer from old to new unit.
• Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty. In-stock units ship same business day from our warehouse.
