Overview

This OEM 2-pole 30-amp contactor (part 1178074) is the main switching relay for the ICP / Heil / Tempstar RHS150L0CA0AAAA heat pump. Its 24V coil pulls in two sets of line-voltage contacts to power the compressor and condenser fan whenever the thermostat calls. Over time the contacts pit, burn, or weld from arcing, and the coil can fail open — leaving the outdoor unit dead, chattering, or stuck running. A 30A 2-pole rating matches the original equipment so the contactor handles the unit's full load without overheating. Replacing a worn contactor is one of the most common and reliable heat-pump repairs.
