This telescoping five stage steel light mast from Larson ElectronicsÕ is designed to allow operators to quickly and safely deploy lighting, cameras, and other electrical equipment in locations where this equipment must be elevated to heights up to 50 feet for effective coverage. This light boom can be extended to 50 feet for maximum area coverage and collapsed to 13.5 feet for applications where a footprint smaller is required. In a fully extended position, the light tower can withstand up to 35 mph wind speeds. When retracted to 30`, the light mast is capable of withstanding up to 50 mph wind speeds. When retracted to 13.5`, the light mast is capable of withstanding up to 125 mph wind speeds.

The tower is constructed of square steel tubing with a base section 11` in length and 6" x 6" by 3/16" thick, lower section 11` in length and 5" x 5" by 3/16" thick, middle section 11` in length and 4" x 4" by 1/8" thick, an upper section 11` in length and 3" x 3" by 1/8" thick, and a top section 11` in length and 2" x 2" by 1/8" thick. Each section has a 15-18" overlap. The mast is elevated using an included 2,500 lbs hand winch with 3/16 inch cable and extended to its full height using a second 2,500 lbs winch.

The LM series of towers are powder coated with glossy blue finish for corrosion resistances and aesthetics. These light masts are typically mounted to trailers or other stable surfaces via an 18" x 18", 3/8" thick mounting base-plate which has been drilled to accept six 1/2 inch anchor bolts. The recommended size for the concrete base/pad is 5` x 5` x 4`. A 44" wide and 1/8" thick mounting T head is attached to the upper section of the mast which provides a strong and stable platform for fixtures.

The LM family of telescoping towers feature a proprietary mast guidance system, which provide increased stability during high winds. When elevated to its full upright position, the mast can be rotated a full 360¡, regardless of the extended height of the mast. By loosening the T-Handle, operators can rotate the mast with easy in either direction. The mast can be positioned in one of four different directions, and locked back in place by re-tightening the T-handle. The mast itself spins freely with easy, and can typically be rotated with a single hand.

This light tower weighs approximately 1300 lbs, can easily support and lift 150 lbs of fixtures and/or equipment. The entire tower assembly is shipped via common freight carrier and when shipped measures approximately 16.5 feet long, 4 feet wide, 5 feet tall and weighs approximately 2000 lbs. Larson Electronics can custom tailor these units to the customerÕs requirements with longer sections and larger mounting plates. We also offer a choice of either the manual 2,500 lbs hand winches included standard or optional electric winches.

Suggested Applications: Temporary lighting, construction sites, and security camera deployment. We can equip this mast with 1000W or 1500W Metal Halide lights or a wide variety of high powered LED lights with comparable power, including the LED10WSA-160, LEDLB-200X2E, LEDLB-160X2E or LEDLB-80x2E.
