Aerospace series - General and installation requirements for passenger seat fittings

This standard specifies the installation and removal requirements and the space envelopes for passenger seat fittings on aircraft. The purpose is to reduce the installation time and the tooling required for seat installation by standardizing the seat attachment fasteners (fittings).

Luft- und Raumfahrt - Allgemeine- und Einbau-Anforderungen an die Sitzanbindung von Passagiersitzen

Diese Europäische Norm legt die Anforderungen an den Einbau und Abbau sowie die Freiräume für die Anbindungen von Passagiersitzen in Luftfahrzeugen fest. Ziel ist es, die Einbauzeit und die Menge der für den Sitzeinbau erforderlichen Werkzeuge zu verringern, indem die Sitzbefestigungsmittel (Anbindungen) genormt werden.

Série aérospatiale - Exigences générales et d'installation pour siège passager

La présente Norme européenne spécifie les exigences d’installation et de démontage ainsi que les gabarits d'encombrement des ferrures de sièges passagers à bord. Elle a pour but de diminuer le temps d'installation et l'outillage exigé pour réaliser l'installation des sièges en normalisant les éléments de fixation des sièges (ferrures).

Aeronavtika - Splošne zahteve in zahteve za namestitev pritrdilnih elementov potniških sedežev

Ta evropski standard določa zahteve za namestitev in odstranitev ter prostorske okvire za pritrdilne elemente potniških sedežev na letalu. Namen je s standardizacijo sponk za pritrditev sedežev (pritrdilnih elementov sedežev) skrajšati čas namestitve in omejiti orodje, potrebno za namestitev sedeža.

Therefore several clevis positions of the fitting should be available. The rear fitting shall have dimensions according to Figure 8 and Figure 9 and a compact design without any sharp edges or corners.

Figure 9 — Dimensions 2 rear fitting side view It shall be possible to route seat-to-seat cables by/alongside/near the fitting, which in turn shall not damage or squeeze the cables when the seats are shifted inside the rail. Therefore the width shall not exceed max. 25,4 mm (max. 1 inch), according to Figure 8 and Figure 10. Particular attention shall be paid to galvanic corrosion between seat tracks and fitting materials. The seat track fitting material shall be corrosion resistant, considering not only the potential action of water/humidity, but also fluids and materials present in the normal seat environment, as well as passenger activity. 4.3 Installation Requirements The fitting shall be quickly lockable by one person without the need for any tools. A single tool – Allen Key 3/16, ¼ or 5/16 shall be used for unlocking of the attachments fasteners.
The maximum force for the locking operation shall not exceed (5 ± 1) daN, respecting ergonomic aspects. The (pure) seat installation time, comprising two (2) Fwd and two (2) aft fittings, shall not exceed one (1) minute. The last seat row may have a longer installation time due to restricted accessibility of a monument installation (e.g. Doghouses, partitions, etc.).
The SLD shall not include parts that have to be disassembled or removed from the device for seat position shifting, removal and installation. The locking motions of the fitting shall not damage the seat track, floor panels or any other component and their surfaces. A clear and reliable visible indication for the SLD in locked position shall be incorporated in order to guarantee correct installation and engagement of the fitting. SIST EN 4697:2016
