Description
The Copeland 90-244 is a 2-pole, 30-amp contactor with a 24-volt coil, designed for switching high-voltage compressor and condenser fan loads in residential air conditioners, heat pumps, and condensing units where a low-voltage thermostat signal controls line-voltage equipment operation. The 24V coil is the standard control voltage for residential HVAC systems, allowing the thermostat or control board to energize the contactor coil directly on a call for cooling or heating without the need for an intermediate relay or additional control transformer. The 2-pole configuration simultaneously switches both line-voltage conductors supplying the compressor and condenser fan motor, providing a complete circuit interruption on de-energization that is essential for equipment protection and safe service access. The 30-amp contact rating accommodates the locked rotor inrush and full load running current demands of single-phase residential compressor loads across the range of tonnage classes commonly encountered in field service. Type 122 construction designates the mechanical and electrical configuration of this contactor family, supporting accurate cross-referencing during replacement part identification. As an OEM-quality White-Rodgers replacement, the 90-244 is a direct-fit service component for preventive maintenance and diagnostic service calls on residential cooling and heat pump equipment where contactor wear or failure has been identified.
