subject: Light Towers Ensure That Your Jobsite Doesnt Have To Suffer Darkness [print this page] If you have undertaken an industrial task on an outdoor jobsite, you already know that nights are the toughest time to work, for man and machine alike. This makes light towers most important in outdoor jobs, especially in poorly lit conditions or at night. These towers come with several standard options such as galvanized mast, frame, and fenders. All these features are what really define the quality of a light tower. A light tower is meant for heavy duty applications and it should be suitable for extreme conditions and the worst of situations.
For instance oil field, construction and mining companies heavily rely on towers and they look for quality above anything else. Light towers range from the usual standard 6KW light to 1000 watts. Depending on exactly where you need to use to towers and the amount of area you want to illuminate, you need to choose your light tower wisely. Another important feature of a light tower is that it should be smooth in its mobility and should have a 360 degree rotation radius.
Also, since such a tower is being use outdoor, it should be able to withstand high speed winds, water, snow among other natural factors. This applies especially to mobile light towers. If the light tower is not strong and steady, it could badly hamper the operations, especially when the winds are blowing at a higher speed. Owing to these very features, light towers are used in different situations, such as emergency rescue operations, mining, oil rigs, military operations, outdoor events, civil engineering, road and building construction among many others.
Testing the light towers under the most rigorous conditions is the only way to ensure that they will give absolute high-quality service. With the advent of portable light towers, moving these towers from one place to another has become much easier and safer. As we all know, poor light conditions can seriously hamper the operations as well as productivity of manpower. Portable light towers solve this problem. Light becomes essential to maintain the consistent productivity of workers on the site. Lack of light easily leads to fatigue as well as accidents.
Mobile light towers can be placed wherever required and they light up a very large area of land. These towers are available in varying heights making them suitable for different requirements. These light towers are also capable for working for as much as 70 hours at a stretch, which makes them suitable for long durations as well.
