3053873083 Genuine LPG Conversion Kit for Electrolux Group Gas Cooktops, Convert a Natural Gas Hob to LPG

Moving to bottled gas, or found a cooktop set up for the wrong supply? Electrolux part 3053873083 is a genuine LPG conversion kit for Electrolux group gas cooktops. LPG runs at a different pressure and burns differently from natural gas, so the burners need parts sized to suit before the cooktop can be used safely. Conversion kits are model specific, which is why the number quoted in your installation manual matters.

What an LPG conversion kit does

Every gas burner relies on a small jet, called an injector, that controls how much gas enters the burner. Natural gas and LPG need different jet sizes, and the supply pressure is set differently too. A conversion kit gathers the parts Electrolux specifies for running a model on LPG, usually injectors plus a label showing the new gas type. Natural gas jets on LPG give large, yellow, sooty flames and are dangerous. Going the other way leaves small, weak flames that may not stay alight. Contents vary by model, so check them against your manual.

Who should fit the conversion kit

In Australia, gas conversion is licensed work. A licensed gas fitter needs to swap the injectors, set the supply pressure and adjust the low flame settings, then leak test the cooktop and fix the conversion label. Make sure the gas is isolated and the cooktop is disconnected from power before any work starts. Keep the kit's paperwork with your manual for future servicing.

Questions about this part

Can I convert my cooktop to LPG myself?

No. Gas conversions in Australia must be carried out by a licensed gas fitter, who will also complete the paperwork your state requires. Buy the kit that matches your model, then have your gas fitter install and test it.
