CEC Section 20 contains aircraft-hangar classification and wiring requirements. The whole hangar should not be assigned one rating without applying those rules. Ask for authenticated documentation showing boundaries, group and minimum ignition temperature; do not classify from a photograph or area name.
Aircraft-hangar lighting coordinated with the Section 20 classification
Industrial and hazardous-location lighting support for aviation facilities
Aircraft-hangar lighting coordinated with the Section 20 classification
maintenance hangars, fuel-handling points, service pits, paint areas and high-bay workspaces can place classified and non-classified spaces only metres apart. The process and its classification documentation determine the fixture; the industry label does not.
CEC Section 20 contains aircraft-hangar classification and wiring requirements. The whole hangar should not be assigned one rating without applying those rules. For each catalogue number, verify the prescribed boundary, aircraft servicing activities, ventilation, mounting height, glare and maintenance access, plus a certification mark from an accredited Canadian certification body and any special conditions.
LEDEX compares the project documentation against product markings and calculates a layout from the exact model's IES file. You receive a fixture schedule with the supporting product documentation your project professional and inspection authority will ask for.
Application Areas
Aircraft Maintenance Hangars
Aircraft Maintenance Hangars conditions vary by release source, ventilation and process. Use the authenticated classification and complete model marking to select lighting for this part of the facility.
MRO Facilities
MRO Facilities conditions vary by release source, ventilation and process. Use the authenticated classification and complete model marking to select lighting for this part of the facility.
Fueling Areas
Fueling Areas conditions vary by release source, ventilation and process. Use the authenticated classification and complete model marking to select lighting for this part of the facility.
Flight Line
Flight Line conditions vary by release source, ventilation and process. Use the authenticated classification and complete model marking to select lighting for this part of the facility.
Recommended Products for This Industry
Why LEDEX for Aircraft Hangars & Aviation?
Classification-led selection
Candidate models are filtered by the documented Zone or Division, group, temperature and ambient range.
Model-specific records
We supply the certification record for the exact catalogue number and options, not a general family listing.
IES-based layout
The photometric model uses the project optics, mounting height and obstructions to predict fc/lux and uniformity.
Coordinated installation inputs
Mounting, wiring and the prescribed boundary, aircraft servicing activities, ventilation, mounting height, glare and maintenance access are recorded before quotation.
