60110-0028500-00 - Kenmore Refrigerator Compressor

The Kenmore Refrigerator Compressor (60110-0028500-00) is a genuine part from Kenmore, specifically designed for their refrigerators. This compressor, sometimes referred to as the heart of the refrigerator, plays a key role in the cooling system of your appliance. It's responsible for maintaining the desired temperature within the refrigerator by circulating the refrigerant and removing heat from the interior.

The function of this part involves the principles of thermodynamics and fluid dynamics. It compresses low-pressure, low-temperature refrigerant vapor into high-pressure, high-temperature vapor. This compressed vapor then releases heat to the surrounding environment while moving to the condenser coil and condensing into a high-pressure liquid. This liquid, after passing through an expansion valve or capillary tube, evaporates at a lower temperature in the evaporator, absorbing heat from the refrigerator's interior and cooling it down.

If your refrigerator is not cooling properly, making unusual noises, or the compressor is hot to touch, it might be time to check the compressor. These are symptoms indicating that the compressor may need replacement.

Before purchasing this Kenmore Refrigerator Compressor (60110-0028500-00), please verify the model number of your refrigerator to ensure compatibility. This step will help you avoid unnecessary returns or exchanges.
