OEM Carrier Flame Sensor for Gas Furnace Model PG95SAS60140DAAA

The flame sensor in your Carrier PG95SAS60140DAAA furnace is a single metal rod mounted in the burner assembly that confirms a flame is actually present after the igniter fires. It works by flame rectification — when the burner lights, a tiny microamp current passes through the flame to ground, telling the control board it is safe to keep the gas valve open. When the sensor is dirty, oxidized, or cracked, the board can no longer 'see' the flame, so it shuts the gas valve within seconds. Homeowners notice this as short-cycling: the burners light, glow for 3-5 seconds, then snuff out, and the furnace tries again repeatedly before locking out with no heat. This OEM sensor uses a Kanthal/stainless flame rod rated to withstand continuous high-temperature exposure and is designed to deliver a clean rectified signal in the 1-6 microamp range the Carrier board expects. The ceramic insulator and mounting bracket match the original spacing so the rod sits correctly in the flame envelope. Why OEM matters here: aftermarket sensors often use thinner rods or lower-grade insulators that oxidize faster and produce a weak, drifting microamp signal. A marginal signal causes intermittent lockouts that are maddening to diagnose. The genuine Carrier part holds its signal strength far longer. Install difficulty: 2 of 5. Tools: 1/4" nut driver, fine emery cloth, and a multimeter (for microamp verification). #1 safety warning: turn off the gas supply and kill power at the breaker before removing the burner-area sensor. Never sand a new sensor — handle the rod by the porcelain only. Ships same business day from our stocked warehouse on orders placed before 3 PM CST.
