Trane CTR1464 Contactor 110/120V Coil 3-Pole 120AMP

The Trane CTR1464 Contactor is a reliable workhorse at around 7.7 lbs, acting as a heavy-duty switch within your Trane HVAC system. Unlike traditional toggle switches limited to low power, this contactor utilizes an electromagnet to control heavy-duty circuits, ideal for HVAC applications. When turned on, the contactor's inbuilt electromagnet attracts a metal armature, physically connecting contacts and permitting high current flow (up to 120 amps) through the circuit. This three-pole contactor design allows simultaneous control of three separate circuits. The Trane CTR1464 is categorized as a definite purpose, open contactor. This means it's specifically designed for HVAC use and features an open design for air circulation and heat dissipation. You'll often find contactor applications within compressor controls or contactor panels of your Trane air conditioner or heat pump.
