LED in-seat reading light systems

Localized in-seat reading system for aircraft and other areas where discrete lighting is required

  • High-tech marketability
  • Integral to seat - follows seat movement
  • Localized lighting with a well-defined beam shape
  • Directionally adjustable by the user
  • Dimmable by the user
  • Less intrusive to neighbouring passengers

The light output end of the in-seat light consists of a short flexible tubing which is firmly clamped to the seat back frame. The tube is terminated in the light output head which can be bent into the required direction. The light head features either an on/off switch or a switched dimmer for various pre-determined light intensity from off to fully on.
Alternatively, the on/off switch or dimmer switch may be located on a separate user control panel.
At the clamped end of the flexible tube exits two supply wires. The LED lighting array may be driven from an in-seat PSU, such as a laptop charger. The light sources require typically 1.5W of power per unit.
Systems are designed to meet appropriate transport quality specifications such as RTCA DO-160 for aircraft.





Safe light
  • low voltage, 12 - 17 volt d.c. input with internal regulation, other supply values can be arranged
  • low heat emission means lamp head does not get hot

Low cost of ownership

  • tamper proof
  • damage resistant
  • maintenance restricted to lamp head
  • extremely long MTBF
  • low power consumption of typically 1.5W per seat means very low running costs

Flexible

  • design freedom improved over conventional lighting
  • operates from in-seat PSU (e.g. laptop charger)
  • reduced weight compared to fiber optic systems
  • single, dual or multi seat versions
  • dimmable and switchable configuration options
