Overview

This is a genuine OEM 2-pole definite purpose contactor (OEM part 1171554) for ICP/Tempstar/Heil model RGS240LTFA0AAAA. The contactor is the electrically operated switch that energizes your compressor and condenser fan motor when the thermostat calls for cooling. A 24V signal from the control circuit energizes the coil, pulling the contacts closed and sending line voltage to the load. Rated at 30 amps with a 24V coil, this 2-pole unit handles the switching duty for residential condensing units. Common failure symptoms include a system that won't start, chattering or humming at the contactor, pitted or welded contacts, and a buzzing condenser that fails to bring on the compressor.

Is this contactor compatible with Bryant or Payne too?

Should I use OEM or aftermarket for my ICP contactor?
