The age-old notion of using quartz light fixtures
mounted on emergency trucks is recently replaced by the usage of portable light
towers. These movable light towers act as an essential source of high-intensity
illumination for varied situations and purposes. Portability of these light
towers makes this equipment wonderfully helpful in emergency sites of accidents
due to fire, collapsing of construction, earthquakes, floods or other sudden
calamities.
Light
Tower: Definition
Ideally a light tower is a tall vertical pole
standing upright at a height of around 30 feet with high-intensity halide lamps
fixed at its peak. This portable tower is attached with a trailer which easily
carries the equipment around apart from accommodating the generator which
provided constant power to the lamps. The danger and insecurity doubly
increases when emergency situations like fire breakout, construction collapse
or any other catastrophes take place at night; as the darkness adds up to the
risk factor.
The invention and application of portable light
towers has been of tremendous help as the equipment is lightweight and can
easily be moved effortlessly without any manual intervention from one place to
another. With this compact and convenient towering device emitting strong
floods of light, it becomes easier to survey and inspect the emergency or
accident site as it is completely convenient to position these light towers due
to its flexibility and custom-made operations.
The
Benefits
In many cases, these flexible light towers prove to
be of great use when an after-disaster surveillance of the area or the
situation is required to assess the intensity of damage to property. Its
ability to move around places makes it easier and convenient for the rescue
crew to act readily to a sudden or urgent situation, as the unit does not confine
anyone or anything for hours. This portable source of uninterrupted light can
remain steady in a scene without any operational support from the fire department
as its operation does not require any external intervention.
Technical
Edge
Moreover, with technical advancements such as
fixture technology and other custom-built features which enhance the applicable
benefits of a portable light tower, more and more enterprises and companies prefer
portable light towers over truck-mounted light units. At the same time, it is
proven that these movable and technically augmented light towers are capable of
emitting stronger light resembling virtual daylight at night. Its greater level
of illumination leaves no space for ‘dark spots’ that leads to disorientation.
Conclusion
Hence, to put it all together, these flexible light
towers act as wonderful saviors when a powerful source of light is needed to
illuminate a relatively large area within a short span of time and without any
operational hassles or inconvenience. These light bearing units are equally
helpful in construction sites, stadiums, celebrations and occasions, hotels and
resorts, airports, oil industries, military operations and so on.
