The York 024-31813-000 Contactor is a heavy-duty 2-pole compressor contactor designed for reliable electrical switching in residential and light commercial HVAC systems. Rated for 30 Amps and featuring a 24V coil, this definite purpose contactor is the direct OEM replacement for aging or pitted components that lead to compressor short-cycling or failure to start. Built to handle the high inductive loads of condensing units and heat pumps, its silver-cadmium oxide contacts ensure long-term conductivity and arc resistance under demanding operational stress.
For service technicians, the York 024-31813-000 offers seamless integration with standard HVAC control circuits. The double pole design provides a clean break for both legs of the power supply, increasing safety during off-cycles. Whether you are performing a seasonal tune-up or an emergency repair, utilizing a genuine York replacement part ensures the compressor motor operates within manufacture specifications, maintaining the pressure balance and electrical integrity of the entire system.
