G.E. APPLIANCES 49K04 Relay
The G.E. Appliances 49K04 is a professional-grade 240V DPDT relay engineered for heavy-duty switching in residential and commercial HVACR systems. As a Double Pole Double Throw component, this relay provides the versatility needed for complex control circuits, allowing for the simultaneous management of two separate circuits or the switching of a single load between two power sources. Operating at 50/60 Hz, the 49K0401 is a standard replacement for various GE and Hotpoint appliances, as well as industrial control panels requiring a compact yet robust electromechanical relay. Its physical footprint—measuring 2.53 inches in width and 1.39 inches in height—makes it an ideal fit for tight electrical housings without sacrificing contact reliability. Whether you are troubleshooting a compressor circuit or configuring a fan motor control, this GE 49K04 replacement ensures high-conductivity switching and long-term stability under varying thermal loads.
Key Technical Benefits:
- High-Voltage Compatibility: Precision-rated for 240V configurations common in HVAC and appliance power stages.
- DPDT Contact Configuration: Offers maximum wiring flexibility for both normally open (NO) and normally closed (NC) applications.
- Resilient Construction: Built to handle the high inrush currents typical of inductive loads like motors and transformers.
- Lightweight Reliability: At only 0.25 lbs, it reduces mechanical stress on mounting brackets and control boards.
- Standardized Fit: Catalog number 49K04 ensures a direct drop-in replacement for existing GE-certified systems.
Common Questions:
Can the 49K04 relay be used for 120V applications?
While the contacts may handle lower voltages, the coil is specifically rated for 240V. Using it on 120V circuits will result in failure to pull in the armature and may damage the component.
What is the difference between this relay and a DPST model?
A DPDT relay provides a change-over connection, meaning it has both normally open and normally closed contacts for each pole, whereas a DPST only provides a simple on/off function for two circuits.
What are the terminal types for the 49K0401?
This relay typically utilizes standard 1/4 inch (6.3mm) quick-connect terminals, facilitating fast field installation for contractors.
