OEM Payne 2-Pole Contactor 24V Coil 30A for Model PA12NA048000AGAA

This is the factory OEM replacement contactor (part number HN51KC024) for the Payne PA12NA048000AGAA 4-ton split-system air conditioner. The contactor is a high-voltage relay controlled by your thermostat's 24V signal. When the thermostat calls for cooling, the contactor closes its contacts to send 240V power to the compressor and condenser fan motor. A failed contactor is one of the most common reasons an AC unit won't start — symptoms include the outdoor unit not responding at all, audible chattering or buzzing at the contactor, pitted or fused contacts, or the system tripping the breaker repeatedly.

  • Specs: 2-pole design | 24V AC coil voltage | 30-amp contact rating | Factory-matched OEM replacement for Payne HN51KC024
  • OEM vs Generic: This OEM unit uses factory-spec contact materials and coil windings, ensuring correct pull-in voltage and contact life. Generic contactors may have undersized contacts that pit and fail prematurely under compressor start loads.
  • Install Difficulty: 2/5 — Always shut off power at the disconnect and breaker before servicing. Tools needed: flathead and Phillips screwdrivers, 1/4" nut driver, multimeter. Photograph all wiring connections before removal. Test coil voltage with multimeter after install to confirm 24V signal from thermostat.
  • Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty. Ships same business day from our warehouse when ordered before cutoff.

Compatibility: Designed for the Payne PA12NA048000AGAA 4-ton split-system condenser. Always verify OEM part number HN51KC024 on your existing contactor or unit data plate before ordering. Our HVAC parts specialists are available to confirm fitment — contact us before you order if you have any questions. In stock and ready to ship today.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Contactor fit my Payne PA12NA048000AGAA?
Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM contactor for the Payne PA12NA048000AGAA. It is a direct drop-in replacement that fits without modification. Always verify the model number on your equipment nameplate before ordering.
How do I replace the contactor on my Payne PA12NA048000AGAA?
Difficulty: Medium (30–45 min)
Step 1: Turn off breaker. Step 2: Open condensing unit panel. Step 3: Photograph ALL wiring on the contactor. Step 4: Label each wire with tape. Step 5: Disconnect wires and remove old contactor. Step 6: Mount new contactor, reconnect wires matching your photo. Step 7: Restore power and test.
My AC clicks but the compressor won’t turn on. What’s wrong?
Clicking from the outdoor unit without the compressor starting = worn contactor. The contactor sends power to the compressor. When its contacts are pitted, it clicks but can’t make solid contact. Look for: visible pitting/burn marks on the contactor face, intermittent operation, or buzzing.
Is this contactor compatible with Bryant or Payne too?
Many Payne parts are cross-compatible with Bryant and Payne since all three brands are manufactured by Carrier Global Corporation. 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 Payne 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.
How fast does National HVAC Parts ship?
