Overview

EN 2240-017:2010 is a European Standard developed by CEN and ASD-STAN that specifies the required characteristics for incandescent lamps, specifically lamp code 306, intended for aerospace applications. This product standard ensures consistency, reliability, and safety of incandescent lamps used in aerospace lighting systems. It complements the general aerospace lamp requirements outlined in EN 2756, and forms part of the EN 2240 series covering incandescent lamps for aerospace.

This standard focuses on key performance characteristics such as electrical rating, physical dimensions, filament type, luminous flux, and lamp life, providing manufacturers and aerospace engineers with detailed specifications for design, testing, and procurement of code 306 aerospace incandescent lamps.

Key Topics

• Scope and Usage
  Defines lamp code 306 characteristics for aerospace electrical equipment. It must be applied alongside EN 2756, which governs test methods for incandescent aerospace lamps.

• Dimensions and Mass
  Precise physical parameters outlined, including length (28.6 ± 1.5 mm), filament form (C - 2V), and approximate mass (8.5 kg per 1000 lamps), ensuring dimensional interchangeability.

• Electrical and Optical Characteristics

  • Nominal voltage: 28 V
  • Nominal power: 14.28 W
  • Nominal current: 0.51 A ± 8%
  • Luminous flux: 188 lumens ± 15%
  • Color temperature: 2740 K
  • Lamp life under various conditions: static DC (300 h), dynamic DC (200 h), static AC (500 h)

• Filament and Cap Specifications
  Filament shape as per EN 2240-002, with cap type BA15d/19 defined in EN 2241 for mechanical and dimensional compatibility.

• Marking and Designation
  The lamp and packaging must include the international code number marking to comply with standard EN 2240-002 for traceability and identification.

Applications

EN 2240-017:2010 is essential for aerospace manufacturers, electrical system designers, and maintenance personnel involved with aircraft lighting systems. The standard ensures that lamps used in cockpit controls, instrument panels, signal lighting, and other critical areas meet rigorous performance and safety criteria.

Typical applications include:

• Replacement and manufacturing of aerospace incandescent lamps
• Standardization of lighting components within avionics
• Quality assurance testing and validation of aerospace electrical lighting products
• Ensuring compatibility with existing aerospace electrical equipment and systems

By adhering to this product standard, aerospace operators can guarantee steady lamp performance under demanding operational environments, maintain safety standards, and reduce the risk of electrical or lighting failure in aeronautical applications.

Related Standards

To apply EN 2240-017 effectively, it is important to consider the following related standards:

• EN 2756 – Aerospace series lamps incandescent - Test methods
• EN 2240-001 – Aerospace series lamps incandescent - Technical specifications
• EN 2240-002 – Aerospace series lamps incandescent - Main characteristics
• EN 2241 – Aerospace series lamp caps - Dimensions

These complementary standards collectively address the testing, design, and dimensioning aspects necessary to fully specify aerospace incandescent lamps and ensure their reliability in safety-critical aerospace systems.
