OEM Carrier Single-Pole Contactor 1-Pole 30 Amp 24V for Model PH13NR048000AAAA

This is the genuine OEM factory-replacement contactor for the Carrier PH13NR048000AAAA heat pump condensing unit. The contactor is the high-voltage relay that responds to the thermostat's 24V control signal, closing to deliver line voltage to the compressor and condenser fan motor. When the contactor fails — due to pitted contacts, welded contacts, or an open coil — the result is a system that simply won't turn on, hums without starting, or runs continuously without shutting off. Replacing it promptly prevents collateral damage to the compressor.

  • Specs: 1-Pole configuration | 24 VAC coil voltage | 30 Amp full load rating (FLA) | 150 Amp locked rotor rating (LRA) | 50/60 Hz | OEM Part # HN51KC024
  • OEM vs Generic: This OEM contactor is factory-matched to Carrier specifications with verified contact alloy composition and coil resistance tolerances. Generic contactors often use inferior contact materials that pit and weld prematurely — a $15 savings that can lead to a $1,500 compressor replacement.
  • Install difficulty: 2/5 — Always disconnect and lock out power at the disconnect box before beginning. Photograph all wiring before removing any terminals. Tools needed: flathead and Phillips screwdrivers, needle-nose pliers, multimeter. Verify contactor pull-in by checking for 24V across the coil terminals on a thermostat call.
  • Warranty: 1-year OEM manufacturer warranty. In-stock — ships same business day from our warehouse.

Compatibility: Factory-specified replacement contactor for Carrier model PH13NR048000AAAA (4-ton R-410A heat pump condensing unit). Verify your unit's wiring diagram and data plate before ordering to confirm 1-pole, 30A, 24V coil configuration. Our parts specialists are available to confirm fitment before you buy.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Contactor fit my Carrier PH13NR048000AAAA?
Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM contactor for the Carrier PH13NR048000AAAA. It is a direct drop-in replacement that fits without modification. Always verify the model number on your equipment nameplate before ordering.
How do I replace the contactor on my Carrier PH13NR048000AAAA?
Difficulty: Medium (30–45 min)
Step 1: Turn off breaker. Step 2: Open condensing unit panel. Step 3: Photograph ALL wiring on the contactor. Step 4: Label each wire with tape. Step 5: Disconnect wires and remove old contactor. Step 6: Mount new contactor, reconnect wires matching your photo. Step 7: Restore power and test.
My AC clicks but the compressor won’t turn on. What’s wrong?
Clicking from the outdoor unit without the compressor starting = worn contactor. The contactor sends power to the compressor. When its contacts are pitted, it clicks but can’t make solid contact. Look for: visible pitting/burn marks on the contactor face, intermittent operation, or buzzing.
Is this contactor compatible with Bryant or Payne too?
Many Carrier parts are cross-compatible with Bryant and Payne since all three brands are manufactured by Carrier Global Corporation. The same physical part is often used across brand labels with different model numbers. To verify: check your Bryant or Payne equipment service manual for cross-compatible part numbers, or email info@nationalhvacparts.com with your model number.
Should I use OEM or aftermarket for my Carrier contactor?
OEM recommended for reliability and warranty compatibility. OEM parts match exact factory specifications for proper fit, performance, and safety. While aftermarket alternatives cost less upfront, the risk of improper fit and reduced lifespan usually makes OEM the better value long-term.
How fast does National HVAC Parts ship?
