Will this contactor work for my panel?

I am slowly gathering parts for my panel. I saw these,

and thought they might work for the 5500W elements and still have a spare leg that I could use for the indicator light. However, I'm swimming a little past my depth. Can someone more knowledgeable tell me if this looks like it would work?

It will work fine for your purpose. I don't know if I'd run the indicator wiring through it, but you could if you want.

The current through the 5500 W element calculates to 22.9A and the contactor is rated for 25A. It may well be there's a good safety margin built into that 25A rating, but personally, I would prefer not to run at 90% of rated current.
