Overview

The SIST EN 2240-061:2011 standard, published by CEN and developed by the Aerospace and Defence Industries Association of Europe (ASD-STAN), defines the product requirements for lamp, code 1683, specifically designed for aerospace applications. This European Standard ensures that incandescent lamps used within the aerospace sector meet strict quality, performance, and safety criteria. It complements the general test methods outlined in EN 2756 and relates to other standards covering main characteristics, technical specifications, and lamp caps.

Lamp code 1683, as standardized in EN 2240-061, represents a critical component in aerospace electric equipment and systems. Proper adherence to these specifications supports reliability, safety, and interoperability in aerospace lighting systems.

Key Topics

• Scope and Application
  Specifies required characteristics exclusive to lamp code 1683 for aerospace use, ensuring uniform performance and compatibility across EU member states.

• Dimensions and Physical Characteristics
  Key dimensions such as filament form (C-2R/C-6), light center length (31.7 ± 1.5 mm), and mass (8.5 kg per 1,000 lamps) are standardized. The lamp bulb is clear with nominal voltage of 28 V and wattage of 28.56 W.

• Electrical and Optical Properties
  Includes nominal current (1.02 A ± 8%), luminous flux (400 lumens ± 15%), and color temperature (2,810 K). The lamp’s operational life is specified for static and dynamic conditions under both DC and AC voltages, ensuring durability and consistent light output.

• Lamp Cap Specification
  Uses BA15s/19 type caps per EN 2241 standards, ensuring mechanical and electrical compatibility.

• Marking and Identification
  Lamps and packaging must be marked with the international code number to facilitate traceability and quality assurance aligned with EN 2240-002.

• Related Testing and Compliance
  Integral use with EN 2756 test methods guarantees all lamps conform to rigorous aerospace safety and performance criteria before deployment.

Applications

This standard is predominantly applied in the aerospace industry for:

• Aircraft Lighting Systems: Ensures incandescent lamps meet performance and durability requirements for cockpit instrumentation, interior illumination, and external signals.
• Aerospace Maintenance and Repairs: Sets criteria for replacement lamps used during routine aircraft maintenance to maintain consistent system specifications.
• Safety-Critical Aerospace Equipment: Supports the certification and verification of lighting components within navigation and operational systems where reliability is crucial.
• Quality Control in Aerospace Manufacturing: Serves as a reference for manufacturers designing and producing incandescent lamps for aeronautical use, ensuring compliance with European regulations.

Related Standards

EN 2240-061 integrates closely with other standards in the aerospace lighting series, including:

• EN 2240-001: Technical specification for incandescent lamps in aerospace applications.
• EN 2240-002: Defines the main characteristics including coding and markings for aerospace lamps.
• EN 2241: Covers dimensional and mechanical requirements of lamp caps.
• EN 2756: Specifies the test methods to verify conformity and performance of aerospace incandescent lamps.

Compliance with this suite of standards helps maintain high quality and interoperability of aerospace lighting components under international regulations.
