Description
Replace the AC heating element on a compatible Norcold absorption refrigerator with supplier catalog part 50822, corresponding to Norcold factory service part 638374. The heater supplies electric heat to the absorption cooling unit; it is not a compressor-refrigerator component.
Manufacturer-documented applications
- Norcold 6000 Series NA8: 6062/6063 and 6162/D6162/6163 models with cooling-unit serial number 11231024 and above.
- Norcold 6000 Series NA10: 6082/6083 and 6182/D6182/6183 models with cooling-unit serial number 11232008 and above.
- N61/N62/N64: applicable models with cooling-unit serial number 11231024 and above.
- N81/N82/N84: applicable models with cooling-unit serial number 11232008 and above.

Cooling-unit serial number is critical
For the 6000 Series NA8 group and applicable N61/N62/N64 cooling units, the earlier heater 621702 is used through cooling-unit serial 11231023; Norcold service kit 638365 is the corresponding earlier replacement. From cooling-unit serial 11231024, Norcold lists heater 630811 and service replacement kit 638374.
For the 6000 Series NA10 group and applicable N81/N82/N84/N1095 cooling units, the earlier heater 621702 is listed through cooling-unit serial 11232007, with service replacement kit 638365. From cooling-unit serial 11232008, Norcold lists heater 630811 and service replacement kit 638374. These are different heater generations. The cooling-unit serial number is not the same as the refrigerator cabinet serial number.
The 6000 Series 6052/6053 NA6 models use a separately listed AC heater and are not included in the applications above. Verify the complete refrigerator model and cooling-unit serial number against the applicable Norcold parts list before ordering. Some N7/N8 three-way versions use different heater arrangements. Electrical appliance service should follow the manufacturer's instructions and be performed by a qualified technician.
