OEM Payne 2-Pole Contactor 24V Coil for Model PA3PNA030000AB

This OEM contactor is the factory-specified replacement for the Payne PA3PNA030000AB split-system air conditioner. The contactor acts as a high-voltage relay, receiving a 24V signal from the thermostat and switching line voltage to energize the compressor and condenser fan motor. When the contactor fails — due to pitted contacts, a stuck plunger, or a burned coil — the outdoor unit will not start, leaving your system blowing unconditioned air or shutting down entirely.

  • Specs: 2-pole configuration | 24V control coil | 30A rated | OEM part number HN51KB024 | Factory-matched to Payne PA3PNA030000AB specifications
  • OEM vs Generic: This OEM contactor uses factory-grade contact material and coil windings calibrated for the exact pull-in voltage of the Payne control board. Generic contactors often use lower-grade contact alloys that pit faster under load, shortening service life significantly in high-cycle climates.
  • Install difficulty: 2/5 — Disconnect and lock out power at the disconnect box before beginning. Tools needed: flat-head and Phillips screwdrivers, 1/4" nut driver, needle-nose pliers, multimeter. Photograph all wiring connections before removing the old contactor to ensure correct reinstallation.
  • Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty. In-stock units ship same business day from our warehouse when ordered before 3PM local time.

Compatibility: Designed for the Payne PA3PNA030000AB split-system air conditioner. Always verify the pole count, amperage rating, and coil voltage on your unit's data plate or existing contactor before ordering. Our parts specialists are available to confirm fitment — don't guess on a high-voltage component. Order today for same-day shipping and get your system back online fast.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Contactor fit my Payne PA3PNA030000AB?
Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM contactor for the Payne PA3PNA030000AB. 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 PA3PNA030000AB?
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?
