BS EN 2240 is a European standard for incandescent lamps used in the aerospace industry.
BS EN 2240-036 specifies the required characteristics for the lamp, code 388, for aerospace applications.
BS EN 2240-036 is the 36th part of a multi-part series that focuses on the requirements for incandescent lamps for aerospace applications to ensure the manufacturing of efficient incandescent lamps. Incandescent lamps are used majorly in aircraft engine applications to provide vision in no light zones.
BS EN 2240-036 shall be used together with EN 2756.
BS EN 2240-036 on the incandescent lamps, code 388 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 2240-036 provides you with the terms and definitions, required characteristics, dimension, mass, the form of a filament, designation, markings, and technical specifications of the incandescent lamps. This assists in manufacturing incandescent lamps that are efficient, durable, and of high quality and guides in enhancing their efficacy.
BS EN 2240-036 assists you in designing lamps as per specifications that enhance the quality of their products.
With compliance and obedience to BS EN 2240-036, manufacturers can demonstrate the reliability of their products and build trust in their use throughout the aerospace supply chain.
