Copeland Comfort Control (White Rodgers) 90-244 Contactor
The Copeland Comfort Control (White Rodgers) 90-244 Contactor is a heavy-duty, 2-pole definite purpose component engineered for high-demand HVAC and refrigeration applications. Rated for 30 Amp inductive and 40 Amp resistive loads, this unit features a 24V AC coil optimized for cooler operation and extended component life. The DPST-NO configuration with double break contacts ensures a positive make and break, reducing the risk of pitting or welding under high-cycle conditions. Designed for versatility, it includes a universal mounting bracket and multi-point terminal options, including screw terminals and quad 1/4 inch quick connects, making it a drop-in replacement for standard air conditioning and heating contactors.
Key Benefits- Optimized Coil Performance: Features a low VA coil (6 VA nominal, 32 VA inrush) that maintains a lower operating temperature to prevent premature breakdown.
- Universal Compatibility: The standard 2-pole footprint and multi-hole mounting plate allow for easy integration into most residential and light commercial condensing units.
- Quiet Operation: Precision-manufactured to minimize mechanical chatter and hum during continuous duty operation.
- Durable Construction: Built with silver alloy contacts and high-grade insulating resin to withstand ambient temperatures up to 150°F.
Is the 90-244 compatible with 120V or 240V control circuits?
No, the White Rodgers 90-244 is specifically designed for 24V AC control circuits. Using it with higher voltage control signals will result in immediate coil failure.
Can I use this 30 Amp contactor to replace a 25 Amp model?
Yes, as an HVAC technician, you can safely upgrade a 25 Amp contactor to this 30 Amp rated unit, provided the physical dimensions and coil voltage match. Higher amperage ratings offer more robust handling for the compressor and fan loads.
What wiring terminals are available on this unit?
This definite purpose contactor features flexible termination including screw terminals and double 1/4" quick connects on each pole to accommodate various lead configurations.
