Product Description

This item is a miniature T-1 incandescent aircraft lamp that provides low-current 28-volt illumination for aviation lighting circuits and related indicator or panel applications.

0 1. Overview

The AML Bulb 6838 is configured as a T-1 style lamp with a wire terminal connection for installation in compatible lamp holders. It uses a CC-2F filament and provides a mean spherical candlepower of 0.150. The lamp has an average rated life of 16,000 hours and a maximum overall length of approximately 1.625 inches. The bulb diameter is approximately 1/8 inch, supporting use in compact assemblies where space is limited. The electrical rating is 28 volts at 0.024 amperes, matching AML 6838 replacement applications.

The same 6838 rating is also offered on a Norman Lamp version with the same 28-volt, 0.024-ampere specification and T-1 size, allowing use where that model designation is required for maintenance records or documentation.
