Environmentally Focused Lighting Towers

21st Century Re-Design

• 183% longer run time• 75% more fuel efficient• 60% quieter• 32% lighter• Dusk to dawn auto switching• Better light than 1,000w MH• Broad spectrum Mesopic light • 50% increase in colour rendition• No flicker• Dramatically reduced glare• Dramatically reduced shadows• Enhanced visual acuity• Enhanced peripheral vision• No hotspots• Increased human response time

Nearly all Lighting Towers in use today are based on technology from the 1960’s using inefficient 1,000W Metal Halide bulbs.

The Ecolite uses modern, energy efficient 150W Ceramic Discharge Metal Halide bulbs.

Combined with our patented prismatic lens technology the Ecolite is able to produce superior definition, clarity and colour reproduction.

Technology- New Vs Old

• Designed to withstand winds of up to 100kph (62mph)• Lifting eyes and tie down points

• Glare & flicker free

• Drastically cut refuelling frequency reducing the likelihood of an incident

• Ecolite -T AMOSS – Automatic Mast Operating Safety System (operator cannot raise the mast unless the brakes are deployed)

• Flexibility of 3500 mast rotation and individual lamp positioning

Safety

One of the biggest risks from operating lighting towers is from overhead obstructions such as power lines.

In 2002 two men were killed whilst moving a lighting tower in the raised position into 20,000-volt overhead power lines.

Several manufacturers have since developed fail safe systems that automatically lower the mast, either hydraulically or electrically as soon as the handbrake is released.

Highways Managing Agent Contractor Aone+ has even gone so far as to specify that all lighting towers used on their network have this feature.

Safety- Overhead Obstructions

Handbrake Applied

Handbrake Released

• Fewer fuel deliveries• Lower refuelling labour costs• Reduced traffic management costs &

disruption (within road works)• Fuel saving on bowser/fuel bunker vehicles• Reduced opportunity for fuel contamination• Lightweight & compact that 10 Ecolite-T

units or 20 Ecolite-P units fit on a standard articulated lorry

Economic – Reduce Logistics Costs

• 80% reduction in overall CO2 footprint• Modular design for rapid component

replacement & exchange• High recyclable content• Reduced light pollution (85% of light focused

on task)• Reduced noise pollution (single cylinder air

cooled engine)• Hydraulic mast system uses biodegradable

fluid• Base unit is fully bunded providing 110%

machine fluids containment• Dusk to dawn auto switching and 7 day

timer options

Ecological

Based on a conservative estimate of 10,000 lighting towers in the UK market, £45.8 million could be saved on fuel and 151 million KG of CO2 prevented from entering the atmosphere.

What Does This Mean For The UK?

What 151 million KG Of CO2 Looks Like!

Based on 15 Lighting Towers on a 6 month hire:

Over £47,000 saved on fuel alone

157,000 Kg of CO2 prevented from entering the atmosphere

At £160 per week you will still save over £20,500 compared to a 4 x 1,000w MH tower at £110 per week

Total saving against a £50 Hire Premium over 3 years (6 months utilisation per year) totals £76,500
