“Lead time: 180+ days.”
That’s the update that stops your whole line in its tracks.
This happens way too often—especially with high-failure rotables like the temperature sensor for the EJ170/190 (PN 816656-3).
You’re managing a budget, a schedule, and a fleet. You don’t have six months to wait for a part that costs less than the downtime it causes.
Let’s fix that.
🔥 Why This Sensor Matters More Than You Think
You already know the basics:
Part Number: 816656-3
Description: Temperature Sensor
Aircraft: Embraer 170/190
Condition: New Surplus (NS)
Trace: Air Canada
Price: $3,750 ea
Qty Available: 3
But here’s what makes this part a pain when it’s not in your bin:
It fails silently—until your bleed air or ECS system starts acting up
OEM lead times are ridiculous (up to 200 days in some cases)
Your AOG clock doesn’t care who the supplier is—it just burns cash
We’re sitting on three tagged and traceable units, ready to ship. If you're flying EJ170s or 190s, this part’s already on your radar—or it should be.
🧠 Real Talk: This Isn’t Just About One Part
Every buyer knows the real risk isn’t the sensor—it’s the delay.
You chase a quote.
Wait for export paperwork.
Get ghosted by a broker.
And before you know it, the AOG sits. Your budget bleeds. Ops is in your inbox.
Now multiply that by 10–15 times a year for just this aircraft type.
That’s the pattern. And it’s broken.
You’re Not Just Buying a Sensor—You’re Avoiding an AOG
At $3,750, this part might feel like a small line item.
But the cost of waiting?
$10K/day in lost utilization
Crew reassignments
Passenger rebooking
Missed revenue flights
Multiply that by a multi-day AOG and you’re staring at five-figure damage—just because a sensor was “on order.”
Let’s not do that again.
