What is BS EN 2240-073 - Incandescent lamps, code 4174 about?
BS EN 2240 is a European standard for incandescent lamps used in the aerospace industry.
BS EN 2240-073 specifies the required characteristics for the lamp, code 4174, for aerospace applications.
BS EN 2240-073 is the 73rd part of a multi-part series that focuses on the requirements for incandescent lamps for aerospace applications to manufacture efficient incandescent lamps. Incandescent lamps are used majorly in aircraft engine applications to provide vision in no light zones.
BS EN 2240-073 shall be used together with EN 2756.
Who is BS EN 2240-073 - Incandescent lamps, code 4174 for?
BS EN 2240-073 on incandescent lamps, code 4174 is useful for:
- Spacecraft and space products manufacturers
- Aerospace products manufacturers
- Design engineers
- Quality control personnel for spacecraft products
- Incandescent lamps manufacturers
Why should you use BS EN 2240-073 - Incandescent lamps, code 4174?
A lamp is a device for producing illumination, originally a vessel containing a wick soaked in combustible material and subsequently such other light-producing instruments as gas and electric lamps.
BS EN 2240-073 provides you with the required characteristics of a lamp such as dimensions, mass, the form of a filament, designation, markings, and technical specifications of the incandescent lamps, code 4174. This assists in manufacturing incandescent lamps that are efficient, durable and of high quality and also guides in enhancing their efficacy.
BS EN 2240-073 also provides you guidance on luminous intensity, angle of distribution, light centre length as well as the colour temperature of lamps.
With obedience and compliance to BS EN 2240-073, you can demonstrate the reliability of your lamps and build trust in their use throughout the aerospace supply chain.
