Save yourself some money and time, by purchasing this contractor, plus the capacitor and replacing the old ones. Ships quickly was packaged well and most importantly it matches the old contractor VCA, FLA, LRA and RES.

I bought a previous contactor last week by mistake, and bought this one to replace it. The first one I bought had a 240v coil on it - I need a 24v coil. My mistake (didn't verify the specs on it before I ordered) - figured it out when the contactor wouldn't pull in when energized. Ordered this one, it was delivered next day and installed in 10 min when I got home from work - saved a $150 service call from the HVAC company! I also went ahead and ordered a new capacitor on the first order - cost $11 and eliminated that problem area before it became another break down (my unit is 16 years old, so it is only a matter of time before things start wearing out!)

I ordered this unit yesterday to replace the burned relay switch on my Trane XE 1000 compressor fan unit. The problem was that I was not sure of the model number. However, the markings of the voltages that it could handle and amperage seemed the same and it looked similar enough to take a chance that it would be an acceptable replacement. I ordered it yesterday evening and got it today just after 12 PM. Swapped out the damaged one for the new one and it worked like a charm. So about $30 dollars in parts and I was back up and running.Please if you are going to do DIY on A/C units be very careful and make sure you turn off all power to the unit before working on it. I also ordered a replacement capacitor for my unit just in case which is why my cost was around $30 dollars and not $10. Good luck guys. Hope this helps.

Best price I found for 30A two pole switching. I'm using it to control a 1.5 hp irrigation pump that runs on 120 Vac. Several hundred cycles so far with no problems. Comes with male spade lug attachment points for the main conductors, but these are easy enough to remove leaving you with a large gauge screw clamp type connection. I didn't have room for spade lug connections and don't plan to remove and re-connect the conductors, so the screw clamps worked out well. This contactor is 'open frame' and a bit clunky compared to more expensive equivalents from the high end industrial suppliers, but once mine was installed and tested, I closed the enclosure cover and don't care about appearances.

My original contactor was a single pole so it only disconnected one hot line when it opened, which works fine but would be catastrophic if the single contact ever welded closed (an occasional failure mode of contactors). I like this unit as it has dual poles so it breaks both lines to compressor. It fit in exactly as the original and priced very reasonable. Would buy again.08.21.16 UpdateThis contactor ran my heat pump for 3 years with no problems, I only swapped it out because I was advised to do so by a HVAC professional for preventative maintenance. I opened the contactor up and checked the contacts, they were barely worn. I will keep it as a back-up.

I had been having issues with my air conditioner not clicking off, and we'd end up having to turn the breaker off for a while as it would start to freeze up as the outside unit stayed on. When the air conditioning man came, my air worked fine, and he left without fixing anything. But every few weeks the air would stick, and at that point, even I knew it was the relay switch, and I ordered this one online. I got a different person to install it, and it works beautifully! We've had it installed for over a month with no issues, and the relay goes off just like it should. Great product, and works like a charm!

I bought this relay to go between our belt-driven 30” whole house fan and a Honeywell RTH5100B thermostat, and it works like a champ. The “G” (fan) terminal of the thermostat easily provides the power that the relay’s solenoid consumes. I bought this 2-pole relay to switch both the high and low speed wires.A couple things I discovered during testing:1. The relay takes ~12 watts to energize. This creates heat that needs to be dissipated by firmly mounting the relay to a steel or aluminum box. When left un-mounted, I measured the base at 180 degrees in a 70-degree room.2. There can be a 60-cycle hum. Now this is no big deal to me as this rascal is mounted in an attic and when it is energized, a big, noisy fan is running.3. The relay is fairly big. I mounted it in a deep 4-S box with an extension ring to make it even deeper.4. The spade connectors on the line and load sides are removable. You can just shove your wire(s) in the lugs and tighten them down.All in all, it seems like a quality product. Just be sure to mount it to metal to manage the heat.
