Overview

This OEM definite purpose contactor switches line voltage to the compressor and condenser fan on your ICP RGS243HEBH0AGAA packaged unit. When the thermostat calls for cooling, the 24V coil pulls the contacts closed and energizes the outdoor section. The primary fitment is the 2-pole 30A, 24V-coil contactor (part 1171554); related units in the series use the 3-pole 40A (1172449) and 3-pole 60A (1183142) variants. Pitted, burned, or chattering contacts cause hard starts, low-voltage burnout, and intermittent no-cooling calls.
