Aircraft operators and interior designers are demanding a new level of aesthetic quality and functionality in the cabin for new interiors as well as for upgrades. To help them reach that goal we have combined the most comprehensive collection of aesthetic options and safety features in aircraft interior lighting with high reliability and easy, flexible installation to create the System 2000 AC.



ALCOP System 2000 AC Benefits

Multi-step or infinitely variable uniform and linear dimming using any combination of lamp lengths throughout the entire operating voltage range

Accepts control input from rotary controls, multi-position or membrane switches

Standard and Custom lamp lengths and shapes available in Cool and Warm White colors. High Color Rendering Index (CRI) options are also available

Compact lightweight packages require no heatsink-system components can be easily mounted on any surface

Positive Lock Lamp Connectors with pig-tail leads and Easy Lock Lamp Holders provide secure reliable connections and ease of installation and removal

Low Voltage-Instant Start technology (LVIS) uses low starting and operating voltages and provides uniform and consistent light output and color

Reliable Solid State Design with built-in circuit protection-Comprehensive Five Year Warranty on system components



The AL-2115 Protected Power Supply (PPS)
The AL-2115 Protected Power Supply (PPS)

converts the 115VAC/400Hz aircraft power into the AC power necessary to light the Series 12 Fluorescent Lamps. The AL-2115 can be controlled by the AL-2402 Dimming Interface Module to provide multi-step or infinitely variable uniform and linear dimming. The AL-2115 is equipped with the ALCOP circuitry. The ALCOP circuit monitors the lighting system and will immediately shut down the PPS in case of an open or short circuit, broken output wires, improperly installed or faulty lamps or arcing. The AL-2115 has isolated fault shut down capability, allowing the rest of the lighting system to operate without hazard or loss of dimming control.
Series 12 Fluorescent Lamps
Series 12 Fluorescent Lamps

are available with a variety of aesthetic options. Standard color temperatures are Warm White and Cool White so you can match the light output to the color scheme of the interior. Our Tri-band lamps have a Color rendering Index of 85, delivering a brighter appearance, greater object clarity and color matching close to that of natural daylight. The Series 12 lamps use the ALC Positive Lock Lamp Connector to provide a one-step mechanical locking connection that provides maximum electrical isolation and protection. The pigtail lead on the lamp and the Easy-Lock Lamp Holder make installation and removal fast and simple and allows lamp overlapping to reduce shadows.

is capable of providing multi-step or infinitely variable uniform and linear dimming control to a maximum of 40 AL-2115 Protected Power Supplies. The Dimming Interface Module can be controlled by any device that provides a discrete resistance value, from a rotary potentiometer to the most sophisticated membrane switch. The dimming is accomplished using pulse width modulation and varying the on-off times to produce infinitely variable light levels from full brightness to 30% of fullbrightness. The pulse frequency has been set to keep the lamp filaments warm, reducing the lamp life impact normally associated with fluorescent dimming.
