161 Atlas Copco has expanded its HiLight tower range with the launch of three advanced LED plug-and-light models - P2+ as well as the V2+ and V3+

The company said that all three models can be powered directly from an auxiliary power source, the grid or a portable generator. They need minimum maintenance and feature easy portability. The manufacturer said that they are ideal for illuminating outdoor events anywhere in the world, the HiLight P2+ floodlight provides 360-degree coverage across a 2,000m² illumination area. This is a much greater distance than traditional balloon-style light towers.

The 32W LED light source’s cylindrical housing is weatherproof polyethylene that ensures no risk of burnout, meaning a longer operating lifetime. The entire assembly weighs 45kg, yet is robust, said Atlas Copco, and is certified as being wind-stable up to 50kph. The manually elevated vertical mast provides a maximum operating height of 5.5m.

Meanwhile, the HiLight V2+ and V3+ are designed for use in roadworks and construction site applications and are housed on a four-wheel trailer for ease of transportation. Both V2+ and V3+ come with a heavy-duty steel frame and are protected by polyethylene bumpers designed to the same high standards as Atlas Copco’s HardHat canopy. The V2+ light tower comprises a 320W LED light source, covering 2,000m². The HiLight V3+ is equipped with 4x120W LED lamps combined with specially designed directional glass optics capable of illuminating an area of up to 3,000m². Both the V2+ and V3+ have manually operated vertical masts that extend up to 5.5m and allow for 9° of rotation.

“The LED lamps experience no burnout problems and have a life expectancy of 30,000 hours, which contributes to lower maintenance costs and longer service intervals,” said Felix Gomez, Product Marketing Manager for Light Solutions at Atlas Copco Portable Energy.
