BASO Y75AS-2 Flame Sensor
The BASO Y75AS-2 is a high-performance flame sensor replacement kit designed to provide precise flame rectified signal detection for residential and commercial gas-fired equipment. As an essential safety component, this sensor ensures the ignition module or furnace control board accurately identifies the presence of a pilot or burner flame, preventing hazardous unburned gas buildup. This Y75AS-2 model serves as the direct 62-20719-01 cross reference, making it a critical stock item for technicians servicing Rheem, Ruud, and other major HVAC brands. Each package contains a 2-pack of flame sensors, allowing for immediate replacement and a backup for future service calls.
Constructed with high-grade materials to withstand the rigorous thermal cycling of a combustion chamber, the BASO Y75AS-2 features a 1/4-inch male quick-connect termination for secure electrical pathway continuity. Whether you are troubleshooting a furnace that starts and then shuts down or performing preventative maintenance on an older gas burner assembly, these sensors deliver the reliable microamp signal required by modern ignition control systems. Integrating this OEM-spec part ensures compatibility with existing mounting brackets and maintains the technical integrity of the heating system.
Key Benefits- Direct OEM Compatibility: Engineered as the exact replacement for the 62-20719-01, ensuring a drop-in fit without field modifications.
- Enhanced Conductivity: High-quality sensing rod material maximizes microamp signal strength for consistent flame rectification.
- Efficient Service Kit: The 2 per bag packaging provides better value for contractors and ensures a spare is always on hand during emergency calls.
- Robust Construction: Designed to resist carbon buildup and oxidation in high-temperature environments, extending the interval between cleanings.
Is the BASO Y75AS-2 compatible with Rheem furnaces?
Yes, use the Y75AS-2 as the verified direct replacement for Rheem and Ruud part number 62-20719-01. It is designed to match the specific dimensions and electrical requirements of those systems.
What are the symptoms of a failing flame sensor?
Technicians typically look for short-cycling where the burner ignites for several seconds and then drops out. If the flame sensing rod is soot-covered or the porcelain insulator is cracked, the ignition module will not receive the necessary signal to keep the gas valve energized.
Can I use this sensor with other brands?
While optimized for Rheem cross-referencing, this flame sensor can be used in various gas-fired applications requiring a straight rod sensor with a 1/4-inch spade terminal, provided the physical dimensions align with the burner's flame path.
