Common Questions & Compatibility:
Is the 90-245 a direct fit for the 90-232?
Yes, this is the official manufacturer-designated 90-245 replacement for 90-232, maintaining the same electrical ratings and footprint.
Can this contactor be used in 240V systems?
While the 30A 2-pole contacts can switch 240V loads, the coil voltage is 120V. Ensure your control circuit provides 120V to the coil terminals before installation.
What are the FLA and LRA ratings?
The Copeland 90-245 is typically rated for 30 Full Load Amps (FLA) and up to 150 Locked Rotor Amps (LRA) at 240V, meeting standard specifications for most 1.5 to 5-ton AC units.
