The contactor is the electrically operated switch that closes to send line voltage to the compressor and condenser fan motor whenever the 24-volt control circuit calls for cooling. When the thermostat closes, 24V energizes the coil, the magnetic field pulls the contacts together, and full line voltage passes to the load. Over thousands of cycles the contacts arc and pit, raising resistance and generating heat until the compressor struggles to start or stops energizing entirely. A buzzing, chattering, or welded contactor is one of the most frequent no-cooling failures, and replacing it restores clean, low-resistance switching that protects the compressor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\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\u003eOEM Part Number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1173689\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\u003ePoles\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 (Single Pole)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eContact Rating\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e25 Amps\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCoil Voltage\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e24 VAC\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\u003eFitment\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOEM Replacement\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEngineered as the factory replacement contactor for the ICP\/Tempstar\/Heil model WPA3362000RKB1 split-system condensing unit.
