The new Wanco Long-Run Light Tower uses high-efficiency LED lights that require comparatively little power. The use of LED lights paired with exclusive engine innovations results in far less fuel consumption during operation, and when combined with a larger fuel tank, the Long-Run Light Tower achieves an average of 225 hours of run time before refuelling. This exceptional efficiency not only reduces direct fuel costs, but also saves time and labour costs related to refuelling and maintenance. This is said to lead to a smaller carbon footprint than other light towers and potential savings running into thousands per year.
The standard model is perfect for road work zones, mining operations, construction sites and oil and gas fields. Ultra-quiet operation minimises noise pollution and a built-in fluid containment system protects against ground contamination from leaks and spills, adding to its eco-friendly features. Multiple options, including electric winches, a cold weather start package and an off-road trailer package are available to customise the Long-Run Light Tower for work in harsh, polar and remote environments.
Wanco president Michael Wanasz said, “Wanco has been building light towers for decades and there’s never been a light tower like this. This is a huge opportunity for our company and for our customers, who now have access to a superior product that will pay for itself.”
