How do I go about replacing my contactor on rheem ac unit if I cannot read the model #?

How do I go about replacing my contactor on rheem ac unit if I cannot read the model #? I have looked and looked and cannot find the model #.. The contactor has some numbers but the rest are faded off.. It reads 42-20044-?? I cannot tell what the last two digits are but it says single pole contactor on the lid... Can anyone please help me with this?

Here is what you need.
Single Pole 208/230V 24V 30 AMP contactor .

Rheem calls for in a single pole a 25 Amp and a 30 Amp. Just go with the 30Amp and you will be just fine.

If you can read the MN# on the actually unit (not the part the air conditioner MN#) when looking up parts its best to use the condensing units MN# to search for the correct part.

You can cross check it at this site http://www.hvacpartsoutlet.com/Rudd-Rheem-1-pole-24-Volt-30-Amp-Contactor-CNTR1P24V30.aspx

If not with out even looking at it Id stick a Single Pole 208/230V 30Amp 24V contactor in it and not look back.
