Product details
4055982690 is a Watsco AVX4 refrigeration access valve, listed here as a generic universal part. Access valves give a sealed system a service port, so a technician can connect gauges, recover refrigerant, evacuate and recharge. They're commonly added when replacing a compressor or working on a system that was built without a charging port. This is a part for licensed refrigeration technicians rather than a home repair.
What a refrigeration access valve is for
Many domestic fridges and freezers leave the factory with sealed pipework and no permanent service port. When a tech needs to work on the system, an access valve is fitted into the line to give a connection point with a valve core and sealing cap. A leaking access valve is a common cause of slow refrigerant loss, which shows up as a fridge or air conditioner that gradually loses its cooling. A missing or cracked cap seal, a weeping core or a poor joint are the usual culprits.

Installation and safety
Opening a refrigerant system is licensed work in Australia, so this valve should be fitted by a technician holding a refrigerant handling licence. Unplug the appliance, or isolate the air conditioner at the switchboard, before any work starts. Check the valve core is seated, refit the cap after use and leak test the joint before recharging.
Questions about this part
Can a home owner fit this valve?
No. Fitting an access valve means opening the sealed refrigerant system, which in Australia must be done by a licensed refrigeration technician with the right recovery equipment.
