OEM Carrier 2-Pole Contactor 30 Amp 24V Coil for Model PY3PEA042060NB (Replaces HN52KC025)

This OEM 2-pole contactor is the factory-authorized replacement for the Carrier PY3PEA042060NB condensing unit, replacing discontinued OEM part number HN52KC025. The contactor is the high-voltage switching relay that your thermostat's 24V control signal energizes to connect line voltage to the compressor and condenser fan motor. When the contactor fails, you'll typically experience an AC unit that won't turn on at all, hums without starting, chatters repeatedly, or — in the case of welded contacts — runs continuously and won't shut off.

• Specs: 2-Pole (Double Pole) | 30 Amp FLA | 24V AC Coil | 50/60 Hz | 600V rated load side | Direct OEM replacement for HN52KC025
• OEM vs Generic: OEM contactors are manufactured to exact Carrier coil pull-in voltage specs and contact gap tolerances. Generic units frequently use thinner contact material that pits and welds faster under high compressor inrush current, shortening service life significantly.
• Install Difficulty: 2/5 — Always disconnect power at the breaker and capacitor before beginning. Tools needed: flathead and Phillips screwdrivers, needle-nose pliers, multimeter. Photograph all wiring connections before removing the old contactor. Swap wires one at a time to prevent miswiring.
• Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty against defects. In-stock and ships same business day from our warehouse.

Compatibility: Fits Carrier model PY3PEA042060NB condensing units. OEM part number HN52KC025 has been superseded — this is the current factory-approved direct replacement. Always verify the coil voltage (24V) and pole count (2-pole) on your unit's data plate or existing contactor before ordering. Our team is available to confirm fitment prior to purchase.
