4055857488 Genuine Natural Gas Burner Injector for Electrolux Group Gas Cooktops and Cookers

Part 4055857488 is a genuine Electrolux gas burner injector sized for natural gas. The injector is the small jet that controls how much gas flows into the burner, and each one is drilled to suit a particular gas type and burner. This one is for natural gas (NG) only, so it isn't suitable for LPG. Check that your appliance's parts list shows 4055857488 before ordering.

Gas burner flame too small, uneven or not lighting?

The injector sits at the base of the burner and sends a measured jet of gas into the mixing tube, where it picks up air on the way to the flame ports. Because the hole is tiny, it doesn't take much to upset it. Boil-overs, grease and spider webs can partly block an injector, leaving a weak, lopsided or yellow flame, a burner that is slow to light, or one that goes out on low. Damage from overtightening or the wrong cleaning tool can also change the flame. A fresh injector of the correct size restores the gas flow the burner was designed for.

Fitting a gas injector

Any gas work in Australia must be carried out by a licensed gas fitter. Turn off the gas at the appliance isolation valve and switch off power at the wall for models with electric ignition. Your fitter will confirm the injector suits the burner and gas type, fit it, then leak test and check the flame on every setting.

Questions about this part

Can I use this injector on LPG?

No. This injector is for natural gas only. LPG appliances use a different injector size, and fitting the wrong one gives a dangerous flame. A licensed gas fitter should handle any conversion between gas types.
