Overview
EN 2240-009:2009 - Aerospace series: Lamps, incandescent - Part 009: Lamp, code 83 - Product standard (CEN) specifies the required characteristics for incandescent lamp code 83 intended for aerospace applications. This product standard is to be used together with the companion documents for test methods and technical specification to ensure consistent performance, interchangeability and traceability of small aircraft/incandescent lighting components.
Key topics and requirements
- Electrical ratings
- Nominal voltage: 28 V
- Nominal current: 0.04 A
- Nominal power: 1.12 W
- Optical characteristics
- Nominal luminous flux: 4 lm
- Colour temperature: 1 930 K
- Life (typical endurance)
- Static with d.c.: 1 000 h
- Dynamic with d.c.: 750 h
- Static with a.c.: 1 100 h
- Mechanical / dimensional
- Light Centre Length (LCL): 8 ± 1 mm
- Mass: specified as 0.4 kg (for 1 000) - mass given in the standard for a batch of 1 000 lamps
- Filament and cap
- Form of filament: per EN 2240-002 (listed as C - 2F and CC - 2F in the product table)
- Cap: SY4s/7 (refer to EN 2241 for dimensions)
- Identification & marking
- Standard designation example: LAMP, INCANDESCENT - EN2240-83
- Lamp and packaging shall be marked with the international code number as indicated in EN 2240-002, where space permits
Applications and practical value
- Ensures consistent performance for small incandescent lamps used in aircraft interiors, indicators, instrument backlighting and legacy avionics.
- Useful for:
- Aerospace manufacturers and component suppliers specifying lamp parts
- Procurement teams requiring a clear product description and interchangeability criteria
- Avionics and maintenance engineers verifying replacement lamps meet certified characteristics
- Test laboratories performing acceptance and qualification testing (used together with EN 2756 test methods)
- Benefits include improved interchangeability, reduced procurement ambiguity, and alignment with aerospace certification and quality processes.
