BS EN 2240 is a European standard for incandescent lamps used in the aerospace industry.
BS EN 2240-058 specifies the required characteristics for the lamp, code 1524, for aerospace applications.
BS EN 2240-058 is the 58th part of a multi-part series that focuses on the requirements for incandescent lamps for aerospace applications to manufacture efficient incandescent lamps.
Incandescent lamps are used majorly in aircraft engine applications to provide vision in no light zones.
BS EN 2240-058 shall be used together with EN 2756.
BS EN 2240-058 on incandescent lamps, code 1524 is useful for:
A lamp is a device for producing illumination, originally a vessel containing a wick soaked in combustible material and subsequently such other light-producing instruments as gas and electric lamps.
BS EN 2240-058 provides you with the required characteristics of an incandescent lamp such as dimensions, mass, the form of a filament, designation, markings, and technical specifications of the incandescent lamps, code 1524.
BS EN 2240-058 also provides you guidance on luminous intensity, angle of distribution as well as the colour temperature of lamps.
This assists in manufacturing incandescent lamps that are efficient, durable and of high quality.
With obedience and compliance to BS EN 2240-058, you can enhance the efficacy and demonstrate the reliability of incandescent lamps to build trust in their use throughout the aerospace supply chain.
