4055563375 Genuine Rapid Burner Crown for Chef, Westinghouse Gas Cooktops, Natural Gas, Replaces 3540047069 354013605

4055563375 is the genuine Electrolux burner crown for the rapid burner on Chef and Westinghouse gas cooktops, listed for natural gas. It replaces the earlier numbers 3540047069 and 354013605. The crown is the cylinder shaped burner head with the flame ports around it, sitting under the burner cap, and a corroded or cracked crown gives a poor, uneven flame.

Big burner flame weak, patchy or noisy?

Gas and air mix inside the crown and leave through its ring of ports, where they burn as an even blue flame. A rapid burner runs at a high gas rate, so spills and heat take their toll on the crown. Ports clogged by boil overs, corrosion, warping or cracks lead to a patchy ring of flame, flames lifting off the ports, yellow or sooty flames, a roaring sound, or a burner that's slow to light. Cleaning helps blocked ports, but damaged crowns need replacing.

Fitting the burner crown

Turn off all burners and let the cooktop cool, then shut off the gas supply to the cooktop. Lift off the trivet and cap, then remove the old crown, noting how it locates on the burner base and around the electrode. Fit the new crown so it sits level, refit the cap and test for a steady flame. Any work beyond the crown and cap belongs to a licensed gas fitter.
