OEM Carrier 2-Pole Contactor 30 Amp 24V Coil for Model PY2PEB042060AB (HN52KC025)

This OEM-spec 2-pole contactor is the factory-authorized replacement for the Carrier PY2PEB042060AB packaged unit, originally specified under part number HN52KC025. The contactor acts as a high-voltage relay: when your thermostat calls for cooling, a low-voltage 24V signal energizes the coil, closing the contacts and sending 240V power to the compressor and condenser fan. When a contactor fails — due to worn contacts, pitting, or a burned coil — the result is an air conditioner that simply will not turn on, or one that hums without starting. Replacing a failed contactor is one of the most common and cost-effective HVAC repairs available.

• Specs: 2-Pole (Double Pole) | 30 Amp FLA (20A RES) | 24V AC Coil | 50/60 Hz | Tyco Electronics 3100A20Q328 equivalent | Factory-matched contact rating
• OEM vs Generic: OEM-spec contactors use silver-alloy contact tips rated for the exact amperage draw of your Carrier system. Generic contactors often use lower-grade alloys that pit and weld faster under load, shortening compressor life and risking a locked-out system.
• Install Difficulty: 2/5 — Always shut off power at the disconnect box before servicing. Tools needed: flathead and Phillips screwdrivers, needle-nose pliers, non-contact voltage tester. Photograph all wiring terminals before disconnecting. Slide wires off old contactor and onto matching terminals of new unit — no splicing required.
• Warranty: 1-year OEM manufacturer warranty. Ships same business day from our warehouse when ordered before 3PM local time.
