Overview

This OEM definite-purpose contactor switches high-voltage power to the compressor and condenser fan on the ICP RGS240HREA0AAAA. When the 24V control coil energizes, the contacts close and pass line voltage to the load; when the call for cooling ends, they open. Pitted, welded, or chattering contacts are the most common HVAC service failure — they cause the outdoor unit to fail to start, to buzz loudly, or to keep running after the thermostat is satisfied. This listing covers the OEM contactor options for the unit: 1171554 (2-Pole 30A), 1172449 (3-Pole 40A), and 1183142 (3-Pole 60A), all with a 24V coil.

Is this contactor compatible with Bryant or Payne too?

The same physical part is often used across brand labels with different model numbers. To verify: check your Bryant or Payne equipment service manual for cross-compatible part numbers, or email info@nationalhvacparts.com with your model number.

Should I use OEM or aftermarket for my ICP contactor?

OEM recommended for reliability and warranty compatibility. OEM parts match exact factory specifications for proper fit, performance, and safety. While aftermarket alternatives cost less upfront, the risk of improper fit and reduced lifespan usually makes OEM the better value long-term.
