The flame sensor — also called a flame rod — is a safety device that detects the presence of a burner flame by passing a small microamp current through the flame to ground. When the sensor's rod becomes coated with oxidation or carbon buildup, the control board can no longer confirm ignition and shuts the burner down as a safety measure, typically within 5–8 seconds of startup. Replacing this sensor with a genuine OEM part restores factory-calibrated signal strength and prevents nuisance lockouts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecs:\u003c\/strong\u003e OEM part number 50HJ401431 | Factory flame rod assembly | Direct plug-in connector | Calibrated for Carrier IFC control board microamp threshold\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOEM vs Generic:\u003c\/strong\u003e This is a genuine Carrier OEM flame sensor, manufactured to exact factory tolerances.
