Fasco H230A Contactor

The Fasco H230A Contactor is a professional-grade 2-pole definite purpose contactor engineered for reliable switching in residential and commercial 1-phase HVACR systems. Designed to handle demanding inductive loads, this 30 amp contactor features a 24V AC coil, making it a standard replacement for controlling compressors and condenser fan motors. With a resistive rating of 40 amps and a Locked Rotor Amp (LRA) capacity of up to 150A at 240V, the H230A ensures durable performance under high-torque startup conditions.

Built for efficiency, the Fasco H230A includes silver cadmium oxide contacts to provide superior conductivity and resist pitting or welding during cycling. The compact design features standard quick-connect terminals and a universal mounting plate, allowing for straightforward integration into existing control panels. Whether you are addressing a burnt contactor coil or upgrading a pitted switch, this UL and CSA-approved component meets the rigorous demands of HVAC compressor switching and motor control.

• Dual-Pole Switching: Provides simultaneous 2-pole disconnection of both power lines for increased safety and motor protection.
• High Inductive Capacity: Rated for 30 FLA (Full Load Amps), supporting compressors up to 3 HP at 240V.
• Efficient Coil Performance: The 24VAC coil features a low sealed VA rating (6.5 VA) to minimize energy consumption and heat generation.
• Rugged Construction: Designed for definite purpose applications with a focus on longevity in high-cycle environments.

• Can I use a 30A contactor if my old one was 25A? Yes, you can always increase the amperage rating (FLA), but the coil voltage must match the control circuit (24V).
• What causes a contactor to hum or buzz? This typically signifies a faulty 24V coil, debris/insects in the armature, or low control voltage.
• How do I check if the contacts are bad? Use a multimeter to check for high resistance across the poles when energized or visually inspect for severe pitting and carbon buildup.
