OEM Payne Contactor 2-Pole 24V Coil for Model PA13NR042000AEAA

This is the OEM factory-specified contactor (part number HN51KC024) for the Payne PA13NR042000AEAA split-system air conditioner. The contactor is a high-voltage relay that responds to a 24V signal from your thermostat, closing the circuit to deliver line voltage to the compressor and condenser fan motor. When the contactor fails, you'll typically find the outdoor unit completely unresponsive, hear a buzzing or chattering sound at the disconnect, or notice pitted and burned contact points that prevent proper electrical engagement. Left unaddressed, a failing contactor can damage the compressor — one of the most expensive components in your system.

  • Specs: 2-pole configuration | 24V AC coil voltage | Rated for high-amperage compressor loads | Direct OEM replacement for part number HN51KC024
  • OEM vs Generic: This OEM contactor is manufactured to exact Payne/Carrier factory specifications, including precise coil pull-in voltage and contact surface material. Generic contactors may use inferior contact alloys that pit faster under cycling loads, leading to premature failure and potential compressor damage.
  • Install difficulty: 2/5 — Always shut off power at the disconnect and breaker before servicing. Tools needed: flathead and Phillips screwdrivers, needle-nose pliers, multimeter, and wire labels or tape. Photograph all wiring connections before removing the old contactor. Swap wires one at a time to avoid miswiring.
  • Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty against defects. Orders placed before cutoff ship same business day from our stocked warehouse.

Compatibility: Designed as a direct OEM replacement for the Payne PA13NR042000AEAA split-system condenser. Confirm coil voltage and pole configuration on your unit's data plate or wiring diagram before ordering. Not sure it fits? Our HVAC parts specialists verify fitment before you complete your purchase — reach out before you order.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Contactor fit my Payne PA13NR042000AEAA?
Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM contactor for the Payne PA13NR042000AEAA. 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 PA13NR042000AEAA?
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?
