I "tickled" the contactor with 200v DC and it actuated, so I'm now thinking the contactor is fine and it is something else on the board that has failed. Probably another little relay that activates the contactor. If anyone has a schematic on this thing please let me know.

Yes, I'm also shocked its 240DC but that is what the spec says and what Albright says. And yes, I checked for contactor clicking before taking it apart, multiple times. I also checked for voltage on those coil wires but at the time I didn't know what voltage to look for, or if it was AC or DC...

Thanks for the info! I got a reply back from Albright directly. It is indeed a 240v coil, DC. I measured the resistance on mine and it is in spec. Type : SW82-312 Coil Voltage (V) 240 CO DC Coil Resistance (Ohms) 7000 Pull In Voltage (V) 170.0...

Anyone have a recent source for coils or replacement contactors? I have one that failed too.

Anyone have a source for replacement contactors or coils? Mine just died as well.

Great thread! Any possibility this thread exists somewhere with the images all intact?
