BS EN 2240 is a European standard for incandescent lamps used in the aerospace industry.
BS EN 2240-017 specifies the required characteristics for the lamp, code 306, for aerospace applications.
BS EN 2240-017 is the 17th 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 2240-017 shall be used together with EN 2756.
BS EN 2240-017 on incandescent lamps, code 306 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 2240-017 covers the terms and definitions and provides required characteristics like dimension, mass, the form of a filament and caps.
BS EN 2240-017 also provides designation, markings, and technical specifications of the incandescent lamps, code 306. This assists in manufacturing incandescent lamps that are efficient, durable, and of high quality and guides in enhancing their efficacy.
BS EN 2240-017 assists you in designing lamps as per specifications to manufacture a standardized product that has global acceptance in the market.
With obedience and compliance to BS EN 2240-017, you can demonstrate the reliability of your products and build trust in their use throughout the aerospace supply chain.
