ACG73784701 - LG Refrigerator Condenser

The ACG73784701 (LG Refrigerator Condenser) is a genuine part produced by LG. This part is compatible with a range of LG refrigerators. The condenser, sometimes referred to as the 'heat exchanger', plays a pivotal role in the cooling process of your refrigerator.

The condenser is tasked with transferring heat from the refrigerant gas to the external environment. This process causes the gas to condense into a liquid state. This occurs after the refrigerant has passed through the compressor, where it is heated and pressurized. The hot, high-pressure refrigerant then enters the condenser. Here, it flows through a series of coils or tubes designed to maximize surface area for efficient heat transfer.

As the refrigerant traverses the condenser, it releases its heat to the surrounding air or water, depending on the type of condenser used. This heat transfer results in the refrigerant cooling down and condensing into a liquid state. The liquid refrigerant then travels through the expansion valve, where it experiences a drop in pressure and evaporates. This evaporation absorbs heat from the interior of the refrigerator, maintaining a cool temperature.

Symptoms indicating a potential failure of the condenser may include your refrigerator not cooling efficiently, or the compressor running more frequently than normal. If these symptoms are present, it may be time to consider replacing the condenser.

Before purchasing, we advise verifying the model number of your refrigerator to ensure compatibility with the ACG73784701 condenser.
