ICP Contactor for RGS213HDCA0AAAA — 30A 2-Pole & 40A 3-Pole 24V | Ships Today

Overview

This listing covers the genuine OEM contactors for the ICP/Heil/Tempstar RGS213HDCA0AAAA: a 2-pole 30A 24V contactor (part number 1171554) and a 3-pole 40A 24V contactor (part number 1172449). A contactor is an electrically operated switch — a 24V signal from the thermostat or control board energizes the coil, pulling the contacts closed to feed line voltage to the compressor and condenser fan motor. Contactors are one of the most common HVAC failure points: the contacts pit, burn, and weld from the high inrush current of every compressor start, and the coil can burn out or chatter. A failed contactor causes a unit that hums but won't start, contacts that stick closed so the system never cycles off, or no cooling at all.

Specifications

Compatibility

Built for the ICP RGS213HDCA0AAAA and widely shared across ICP-family equipment (Heil, Tempstar, Comfortmaker, Arcoaire). Choose the 2-pole 30A or 3-pole 40A variant to match your original contactor's pole count and amp rating.

Installation Guide

1. Safety First — Disconnect power at the disconnect and breaker; verify zero voltage with a multimeter.
2. Access — Remove the unit's electrical access panel.
3. Document — Photograph all line, load, and 24V coil wiring before disconnecting.
4. Remove — Transfer wires one at a time, or unscrew the old contactor from its bracket and lift it out.
5. Install — Mount the new contactor and reconnect each wire to the matching terminal per your photo.
6. Test — Restore power, call for cooling, and confirm the coil pulls the contacts in cleanly with no chatter.

Signs You Need a Replacement

• Unit hums or buzzes but the compressor won't start
• Visible pitting, burning, or melting on the contacts
• Contacts welded closed — system never cycles off
• Coil chatter or no pull-in on a 24V call
