Solar Powered Light Tower: This solar light tower includes two 265-watt solar panels, solar charging system and manual crank up mast mounted on trailer with outriggers. The 0.53KW solar generator system replenishes amp hours of usable battery capacity per day, assuming 5.5 hours of peak charging sunlight. This system delivers 12 volts for equipment mounted atop the 30` telescoping light mast.

Light Mast: This telescoping five stage steel light mast from Larson Electronics is designed to allow operators to quickly and safely deploy a variety of equipment in locations where it must be elevated to heights up to 30` for effective coverage. This light mast can be extended to 30` above the trailer floor for maximum area coverage, and collapsed to 13.5` for applications where a smaller footprint is required. The tower is constructed of square steel tubing with a base section 6.6`Êin length and 6" by 6" by 3/16" thick, lower section 6.78`Êin length and 5" by 5" by 3/16" thick, middle sectionÊ6.93`Êin length and 4" by 4" by 1/8" thick, upper section 7.08` in length and 3"Êby 3" by 1/8" thick, and top section 7.58` in length and 2" by 2" by 1/8" thick. Each section has aÊ1`+Êoverlap.Ê The mast is extended to its full height using an included 1,000lb rated hand winch with 3/16" galvanized steel cable.

Mounting components for a customer-provided camera system are available at the top of the mast. Below the mast head, mounting components for a customer-provided wireless network bridge are also available. A customer-provided camera interface system to support these devices can be setup on the trailer deck. When elevated to its full upright position, the mast can be rotated a full 360¡. 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 positions, 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. The LM series of towers are powder coated with glossy blue finish for corrosion resistance and aesthetics.

The LM family of telescoping towers feature a proprietary mast guidance system, which provide increased stability during high winds. Four 1,000 lbs hand crank leveling jacks are used for leveling. The jacks can be leveled by hand crank or attachment provided for power drills. These outriggers can be extended 2` out from the side of the trailer for added stability. When lowered to 13.5`, the mast can withstand winds up to 125 mph. Custom builds can be provided for higher wind speed resistance when fully raised.

Solar Panel Assembly: This unit is comprised of two 265-watt solar panels, generating a total maximum output of 0.53 KW. The panels are mounted to a stationary assembly. The panels are wired to the solar charger control box which manages the charging system. The two solar panels are mounted to a frame angled at 45¡ to capture the intensity of the sun for optimized light intake. This system includes a battery charger and a 5-outlet power distribution box with five, 15-amp 5-15R 125V duplex receptacles for powering customer-provided 120V equipment. This enclosure is lockable.

Diesel Generator: Under the hood, this generator is powered by a vertical, liquid-cooled four-cycle diesel engine (direct coupled). With engine speeds up to 3,600 rpm, the two-cylinder unit is capable of generating 7 kW on standby and 6.5 kW during prime use. It features a 12V DC electric starting system and can hold up to 7.4 gallons of fuel. At full load, this unit consumes 0.69 gallons of fuel per hour, which equates to a runtime of 10 hours. It also comes with an emergency stop system that is activated during abnormal levels of oil pressure and water temperature.

The rotating field AC generator is designed to support 120/240V 60Hz. It features single-phase 120V at 27.1 amps (2x) and single-phase 240V at 27.1 amps, as well as four receptacles (GFCI 5-20RA, L5-30R, L6-30R and L14-30R). Each receptacle supports circuit protector mechanisms that shuts down the engine to prevent overcurrent damage. There is also a safety relay that stops the starter from engaging after starting the engine. A swing-up side panel offers easy accessibility to the engine for inspection and maintenance. For safety during operation, the engine is designed to stop immediately when the output connection cover is opened.

This generator comes with several noise-reduction features that can streamline its application in demanding work sites. With a full load and at a distance of 23 feet, the unit emits 66 dbA of sound, which is equivalent to the noise level of a compact hair dryer.

Component Control Center: All the electrical components are encapsulated in a NEMA 3R job box that is bolted to the trailer. Since most of these components are not rated for high heat, our component cooling system circulates air within the job box at 1400 CFM when the ambient temperature exceeds 90 degrees Fahrenheit. The job box that contains the component control system includes locks for security purposes.

Trailer Assembly: The entire assembly is mounted to a 14` by 7`, single axle trailer via six 1/2" anchor bolts. The two wheel trailer is equipped with 3,500 lbs axle and leaf springs with 15" trailer tires. A standard 2" ball coupling, two standard safety chains, and 7-pin flat trailer plug allow for easy hookup and towing. The trailer tongue can be removed for long term deployment. A rugged and waterproof job box is included, safely secured to the trailer. Four outriggers mounted to the corners of the trailer allow operators to level the trailer, and provide stabilization during deployment. All trailer lighting complies with DOT/FMVSS regulations.
