Its earlier Electrolux number is 1454949. The compressor is the pump at the heart of the sealed system, and Electrolux specifies this model for the fridges it suits, so refrigerant type and capacity are matched to the system. A compressor swap is sealed system work and must be done by a licensed refrigeration technician.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSigns of a failed fridge compressor\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe compressor pumps refrigerant around the sealed system, which is what moves heat out of the cabinets. When it fails, the fridge and freezer both warm up, though the light and fan may still run. You may hear the compressor click on and off every few minutes without starting, find it silent and cool to touch, or notice it humming and very hot. Before condemning the compressor, a technician will test the start relay, overload, thermostat or control board, because those simpler parts often cause the same symptoms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Electrolux part 4055093472\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCross reference number 1454949\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEmbraco VEGZ11C compressor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor R600a refrigerant systems\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLicensed refrigeration technician required to fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"part-specs\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCompressor model\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eEmbraco VEGZ11C\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eRefrigerant\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eR600a\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWho can fit a compressor\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReplacing a compressor means opening the sealed system, recovering and recharging refrigerant, and brazing new joints. That work should be done by a licensed refrigeration technician. R600a is flammable, so the technician needs to follow hydrocarbon safe procedures and should fit a new filter drier at the same time. Unplug the fridge and leave it unplugged until the job is done.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I fit this compressor myself?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eNo. Compressor replacement involves opening the sealed system and handling a flammable refrigerant, which is licensed work. A refrigeration technician will also confirm the compressor really is faulty, since start relays and controls often cause the same symptoms.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Electrolux","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44551287668814,"sku":"4055093472","price":877.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/partsshop.com.au\/products\/4055093472-genuine-electrolux-fridge-compressor-embraco-vegz11c-r600a","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
