OEM Carrier 2-Pole Contactor 24V Coil for Model CA13NA0360NGACBA

This is the OEM factory-specified contactor (part number HN51KC024) for the Carrier CA13NA0360NGACBA split-system air conditioner. The contactor is a high-voltage relay that controls power delivery to the compressor and condenser fan motor. When the thermostat calls for cooling, a 24V signal from the control board energizes the contactor coil, closing the contacts and allowing 240V line power to flow. A failed contactor typically presents as an AC unit that won't turn on at all, chatters or buzzes loudly at the outdoor unit, or — in cases of welded contacts — runs continuously and won't shut off.

• Specs: 2-pole configuration | 24V AC coil | 30A contact rating | 240V line voltage | Direct OEM replacement for part number HN51KC024
• OEM vs Generic: OEM contactors use silver-alloy contact tips rated for thousands of switching cycles. Generic contactors often use lower-grade alloys that pit and weld prematurely under compressor start loads, especially in high-cycling climates.
• Install Difficulty: 2/5 — Always shut off power at the disconnect and breaker before beginning. Tools needed: flathead and Phillips screwdrivers, 1/4" nut driver, needle-nose pliers, non-contact voltage tester. Photograph all wiring connections before removing the old contactor. Transfer wires one at a time to avoid miswiring.
• Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty. In-stock and ships same business day from our warehouse.
