When the thermostat calls for cooling, the 24-volt control coil energizes and pulls the contacts closed, sending line voltage to the compressor and condenser fan motor. Because the contacts carry the full load current every cycle, they are one of the most common wear items in an air conditioner. Pitted, burned, or chattering contacts cause hard starts, intermittent cooling, or a unit that hums but won't run. Replacing a failing 40A contactor restores reliable, full-voltage switching to the compressor circuit.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSpec\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eValue\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePart Number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1176763\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDefinite-Purpose Contactor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eICP \/ Tempstar \/ Heil\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eContact Rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e40 Amps\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePoles\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2-Pole\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCoil Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e24V\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFits Model\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWCH3602GKR500\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eDirect OEM replacement for the ICP\/Tempstar\/Heil WCH3602GKR500 condensing unit.
