OEM Carrier Single-Pole Contactor 1-Pole 24V 30A for Model PH13NR048000AEAA

This is the genuine OEM Carrier contactor (part #HN51KC024) factory-specified for the Carrier PH13NR048000AEAA heat pump condensing unit. The contactor is the high-voltage relay that closes when your thermostat sends a 24V signal, routing line voltage to the compressor and condenser fan motor. When it fails, symptoms include the system not turning on at all, audible chattering or humming from the contactor, the unit running continuously and failing to shut off, or visibly pitted and burned contact points inside the control compartment.

  • Specs: 1-Pole (single-pole) | 24 VAC coil voltage | 30A Full Load Amps (FLA) | 150A Locked Rotor Amps (LRA) | 50/60 Hz | Factory OEM part #HN51KC024
  • OEM vs Generic: This OEM contactor is built to exact Carrier factory tolerances for contact gap, coil pull-in voltage, and current rating. Generic aftermarket contactors often use lower-grade contact material prone to pitting and premature welding, which can leave your compressor running uncontrolled — an expensive failure mode.
  • Install difficulty: 2/5 — Shut off power at the disconnect and verify zero voltage with a multimeter before touching any wiring. Photograph all wiring connections before removal. Tools needed: flathead and Phillips screwdrivers, needle-nose pliers, multimeter. Note: low-voltage (24V coil) terminals may be positioned differently from the original — reference the unit wiring diagram.
  • Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty. In-stock and ships same business day from our warehouse.

Compatibility: Direct OEM replacement for Carrier model PH13NR048000AEAA heat pump condenser. Also cross-references Carrier/Bryant/Payne part numbers HN51CC024, P282-0311, P282-1304, P282-1305, and others. Always verify pole count, coil voltage, and amp rating against your unit's wiring diagram before ordering. Our fitment team is available to confirm compatibility before you buy — order today and get it shipped the same day.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Contactor fit my Carrier PH13NR048000AEAA?
Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM contactor for the Carrier PH13NR048000AEAA. 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 PH13NR048000AEAA?
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?
