I have searched the internet but not entirely comfortable on the results to order a replacement. The parts sheet for the Heat Pump on the contactor shows: CSG part# CTR-0639 with the following description: Single Pole normally open with thru bar. Contacts 240V, FLA 25.0, LRA 150.0; Coil 24V

On the old contactor itself that has a large sticker on it: reading left to right-
General Electric
Volts AC 277 480 600
Full Load Amperes 35
Locked Rotor Amperes:
>>1 PH (Blank)
>> Per? ( rubbed thru)150 125 100
Resistive Amperes Per Pole 35

At the very bottom on the same tag: CR353CB3AH1AG

Very small white tag near the contactor's mounting base: ;
24v 60hz
24v 50hz
55-827h
 
Power contactors / definate purpose contactors for condenser units are pretty generic .

As long as the replacement contactor will phisically fit , brand is not critical .

If the coil voltage , line voltage , amperage , is the same . If there is room to fit , I like to go up at least 1 size in amperage .

( Note , for HVAC , coil voltage is usually 24 VAC . )

God bless
 
Are you sure your existing contractor lists the FLA at 35? That doesn’t seem right when looking at the rest of the specs you listed for that contractor.
