Larson Electronics LLC Releases Hydraulic Skid Mount Megatower Light Plant


KEMP, Texas, May 21, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Industrial lighting leader, Larson Electronics LLC, announced the release of a new skid mounted hydraulic megatower light plant, ideal for mining and oil field applications, due to its extremely rugged construction.

The LM-SMWB-HLM65-16X500LTL-LED-480V is a 7-stage hydraulic light plant, allowing operators to quickly deploy a twenty, 500-watt LED light heads up to 74 feet above ground with a hydraulic ram. With a combined total of 1,350,000 lumens, this hydraulic telescoping light mast is powerful and great for mining-grade applications, as well as large scale event illumination, construction, industrial operations, and anywhere a rugged, mobile, full-power lighting system capable of extended operation is needed. This trailer mounted light tower is operated on 480V single phase or three-phase line in power and is a direct replacement for 1,000W metal halide light plants.

To prevent damage and shaking from strong winds during operation, this LED light tower is equipped with automatic retraction, which retracts the mast for safe operation during high winds. This cutting-edge feature is designed to improve safety at industrial work sites.

This mobile megatower is built to go the distance; Seriously over-engineered to survive the roughest environments, it can be easily transported through any kind of terrain and holds steady in rough weather conditions. The light boom is constructed of heat treated aluminum with a powder coated finish. The entire unit is mounted on a large skid mount system for one readily available package that can be anchored to concrete pads. This allows the system to be securely mounted but also conveniently removed and transported by crane, ideal for military operators overseas, allowing the government to keep the unit.

“There are a lot of heavily-built lighting systems out there, but our Megatower is constructed much differently.” said Rob Bresnahan, CEO of Larson Electronics LLC. “We specifically over-engineered this hydraulic megatower to survive the roughest working conditions. In the mining and oil industries specifically, functioning mobile towers are highly valuable, but need to be able to withstand the extreme environments – this one will do just that and more.”
