Superior Radiant CE003 Sensor
The Superior Radiant CE003 Flame Sensor Probe (PSE-SP1) is an OEM-spec replacement for gas-fired infrared heaters and high-efficiency burners. As a seasoned technician, you know that intermittent pilot outages and nuisance lockouts are often traced back to a fouled or degraded flame rectification circuit. This 5 1/4-inch flame rod is engineered for precision fit and consistent microamp signal strength, ensuring the integrated furnace control (IFC) remains energized throughout the heating cycle.
Replacing a worn-out HVAC flame sensor like the Superior Radiant PSE-SP1 is a standard preventative measure to avoid the common 3-to-5 second ignition failure. This genuine Superior Radiant replacement part features a durable electrode capable of withstanding the high thermal stress of industrial combustion environments. Whether you are performing annual maintenance or diagnosing a "no-flame" error code, utilizing an OEM flame sensor probe ensures the mounting geometry and lead-wire alignment match the original factory specifications for reliable safety performance.
Key Benefits for the Contractor
- Direct OEM Replacement: Eliminates the need for field modifications, ensuring the probe sits at the correct flame impingement angle.
- Stabilized Microamp Signal: Provides the necessary DC rectification signal (typically 1.5 to 10 microamps) required to prove flame and maintain gas valve operation.
- High-Temperature Durability: Engineered with premium alloy to resist oxidation and carbon buildup longer than universal aftermarket alternatives.
- Safety Integrity: Prevents unburned gas buildup by accurately reporting flame presence to the burner control board.
Common Questions
What are the symptoms of a bad CE003 sensor?
The most common symptom is the burner lighting but shutting off almost immediately (within 2–7 seconds). This typically indicates the control board is not receiving a signal from the sensor probe.
Can I clean the PSE-SP1 instead of replacing it?
While cleaning with a light abrasive (like a Scotch-Brite pad) can temporarily restore the signal, carbon deposits eventually pit the metal. For commercial and industrial applications, a full replacement is recommended to prevent emergency callbacks.
Will this work with all Superior Radiant heaters?
This sensor is designed for specific models utilizing the PSE-SP1 probe. Please check your specific unit’s manual or part list for CE003 compatibility before installation.
