Overview
EN 2240-074:2011 - "Aerospace series - Lamps, incandescent - Part 074: Lamp, code 5086 - Product standard" is a CEN (ASD‑STAN) product standard that specifies the required characteristics for incandescent lamp code 5086 intended for aerospace applications. It defines physical dimensions, electrical and photometric characteristics, life performance and marking requirements and is to be used together with the general technical specification and test methods in EN 2240‑001, EN 2240‑002, EN 2241 and EN 2756.
Key topics and technical requirements
- Designation and marking
- Official identification example: EN2240‑5086; marking on lamp and packaging per EN 2240‑002 unless space is limited.
- Electrical ratings
- Nominal voltage: 6 V
- Nominal current: 2 A
- Photometric and optical
- Colour temperature ≈ 2950 K
- Nominal luminous flux and tolerances are specified in the standard (see Table 1 in EN 2240‑074).
- Mechanical and dimensional
- Cap type: BA9s/13 (refer to EN 2241 for cap dimensions)
- Light centre length (LCL): 15 ± 0.4 mm
- Bulb appearance: clear (as shown in the product figure)
- Mass (batch basis) specified (e.g., mass for 1 000 units listed)
- Filament and life
- Filament form as referenced in EN 2240‑002
- Service life: static DC, dynamic DC and static AC life durations are specified (e.g., 1 500 h static DC; 1 200 h dynamic DC; 2 000 h static AC - see standard for full details)
- Testing and specification linkage
- Intended to be used with EN 2240‑001 (technical specification) and EN 2756 (test methods) for conformity verification.
Applications and users
- Primary use: certified incandescent lighting for aerospace equipment - instrument panels, cockpit indicators, cabin or equipment lighting where lamp code 5086 is specified.
- Who uses this standard:
- Aerospace OEMs and suppliers specifying or manufacturing lamps
- Maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) organizations and avionics technicians
- Procurement and quality teams ensuring component conformity
- Test laboratories conducting qualification per EN 2756
- Certification authorities reviewing component compliance
