Industrial lighting leader, Larson Electronics LLC, has released a new trailer mounted hydraulic megatower mast for heavy-duty industrial applications. This 7-stage folding tower hydraulic mast deploys lights or other equipment to elevations above 65 feet and features a hydraulic ram and mast. The entire assembly is mounted onto a tandem axle trailer and powered by a 20KW Kubota diesel generator with a 110-gallon fuel tank. This trailer has been designed to hold steady through extremely rugged outdoor conditions and harsh winters.
The WCDE-20-HLM100-WSM is a versatile self-contained, towable Megatower mast. This unit contains a water-cooled diesel engine powering a 20KW Kubota generator and can run for 43 continuous hours without refueling. The hydraulic tower can be extended to 112 feet and collapsed to 33 feet for a smaller footprint. The telescoping boom is constructed of carbon steel with a galvanized finish and raised from and lowered to the folded position by a single hydraulic ram and extended or retracted by a second hydraulic system.
An external oil pump system is included with this Megatower, along with robust wind monitoring system that prevents shaking during strong winds to keep the unit damage-free. When exposed to strong winds, such as 40 mph, the system automatically retracts the mast for safe operation. The entire unit is mounted onto a four-wheel, dual tandem axle trailer with 12" I-beam construction.
“This Megatower mas provides operators with a safe and effective way to deploy lights and other equipment for huge outdoor events or large jobsite lighting,” said Rob Bresnahan, CEO of Larson Electronics LLC. “This completely self-contained package has everything you need in one transportable unit.”
