Identify and resolve lockout conditions with the Weil McLain 383-500-055 Flue Temp Sensor Kit. Designed for Weil McLain Ultra Series 1 and 2 residential gas boilers, this genuine OEM replacement part is essential for monitoring exhaust gas temperatures and maintaining high-efficiency performance. When a flue temperature sensor fails or provides erratic resistance readings, the boiler control module typically triggers a safety shutdown to prevent heat exchanger damage. This kit includes the NTC thermistor sensor and the necessary grommet for a secure, airtight seal within the stainless steel vent pipe.

As a condensing boiler sensor, the 383-500-055 ensures the system operates within engineered thermal limits, specifically protecting the jacket assembly and internal components from overheating. Field-verified for Ultra-80, 105, 155, and 230 models, this HVAC replacement kit allows technicians to restore reliable modulation and safety sequencing without the need for universal workarounds that can compromise control board logic.

Key Benefits
  • Precise Thermal Monitoring: High-accuracy thermistor provides real-time flue gas data to the Weil McLain Ultra control board for precise firing rate adjustments.
  • OEM Compatibility: Specifically engineered for Ultra Series 1 & 2 boilers, ensuring exact electrical resistance curves and physical fit.
  • Safety Compliance: Prevents hazardous operating conditions by enabling the boiler's high-limit safety cut-out protocols when exhaust temperatures exceed thresholds.
  • Complete Installation Kit: Includes the 383-500-055 sensor and specialized mounting grommet to maintain the integrity of the sealed combustion system.
