It fits models SR-200, SR-333 and SR-400.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat it does\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe stack flue sensor reads temperature in the flue and reports it back to the heater control. If exhaust temperature runs higher than the design allows, the control shuts the heater down. That protects the heat exchanger and the venting from damage, and it is why a heater will refuse to run on what looks like a healthy day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiagnosing it\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhen a Max-E-Therm locks out on a stack or high limit fault, the sensor is the first suspect, because a failed or drifted sensor reports temperatures that are not there. It is worth checking the flue path and the exchanger for soot or restriction at the same time, since a genuinely overheating stack produces the same symptom for a very different reason.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is a new OEM part and installs in place of the original.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sta-Rite","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48625842946260,"sku":"STA-151-6279","price":137.12,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0801\/9568\/2516\/files\/default_912cad22-886b-4fbf-bdb3-36667db5d629.jpg?v=1788701391","url":"https:\/\/www.activepoolsupply.com\/products\/stack-flue-sensor","provider":"Active Pool Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
