The contactor is the electromechanical switch that energizes the compressor and condenser fan motor whenever your thermostat calls for cooling. When the 24-volt coil receives a signal from the control circuit, the magnetic field pulls the contacts closed and routes line voltage to the high-amperage components. Rated for 25 amps with a 24V control coil, this part handles the inrush and running loads of a residential condensing unit. A failed contactor is one of the most common reasons an outdoor unit won't start — symptoms include a humming sound with no fan rotation, pitted or burned contacts, a chattering coil, or a system that runs intermittently as the contacts arc and weld.\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\u003ePart Number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1050699\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDefinite Purpose Contactor, Single Pole (1P)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTempstar\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\u003e24V\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePoles\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eApplication\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAC Condensing Unit\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis contactor is the factory-specified replacement for the Tempstar TCA224VKA1 condensing unit.
