Lighting the way towards more sustainable, productive, and safer ...

The construction industry is a significant source of CO2 emissions, with research estimating that it accounts for over a fifth of the world’s total emissions. That said, advances in technology mean that all equipment can contribute to greener operation, including lighting. Traditionally, light towers have relied on diesel engine power. However, today, several more environmentally friendly alternatives are available to suit a variety of requirements. Electric-only models can use grid power, eliminating the need for diesel. Lithium-ion battery LED options, on the other hand, can be combined with renewable energy sources to provide a 100 percent zero-emission solution. Depending on the technology used, the CO2 emissions can reduce dramatically. For example, Atlas Copco’s HiLight S2+ solar light towers enable users to cut emissions by up to six tonnes compared to traditional technologies, and it also offers zero noise emissions. The solar panels, which can be pulled out from the tower’s canopy and adjusted to align with the sun, allow autonomous operation when the solar yield is greater than demand.

The type of lights used in the tower can also make a difference. Next-generation LED floodlights are more efficient, with a lifespan of 50,000 hours, and capable of providing optimal light distribution to cover an area of up to 6,000 m2. When combining these features in the same light tower, the result is Atlas Copco HiLight H6+, a diesel light tower that allows users to reduce their energy consumption and CO2 emissions. Moreover, dimmable LED floodlights help ensure that the lights offer the appropriate level of luminosity for each situation and time of day. This technology helps reduce CO2 emissions by up to 40 percent and extends the power autonomy of the HiLight H6+ to over 300 hours.

Solar light tower HiLight MS 4 and HiLight MS 5 - Atlas Copco

The HiLight MS 4 features 3x150W, SMD LED floodlights designed to deliver 3.846 m² light coverage. With the HiLight MS 5, one battery can be recharged with solar energy in just two and a half hours. This solar lighting system model has 4x150W, SMD LED lights delivering 5,278 m² light coverage.

These user-friendly light towers use solar radiation as an energy source, providing silent and low emission operations. They are robust, easy to transport, and come ready to use.

The lights can be easily manoeuvred into place and has an simple solar panel set up; they are easily pulled out from the canopy and their position can be adjusted to best align with the sun’s position to achieve maximum solar yield.​ The compact solar panel design, makes the solar light towers portable and easy to transport. Small in size, big on providing reliable light on site.

External digital control cubicle gives easy access to the ECO Controller as the brain of the light tower which optimizes energy distribution while the ECO mode starts the dimming function to optimize the autonomy of the battery.

Together this digital duo, ensures higher performance and efficiency of the solar light towers.

The HiLight MS 4 light tower has been designed with a hardhat canopy that allows better serviceability, allowing operators to reduce downtime. The light tower delivers high efficiency coupled with low service cost, which enables customers to achieve operational cost savings and a quick return on investment. 

The light tower is extremely easy to work with and use as there are no external cables or refuelling required. Moreover, the system features lithium-ion batteries for energy storage which are low maintenance and do not consume any fuel.

The HiLight MS 4 light tower offers a robust alternative to temporary diesel lighting for end-users and rental companies operating in infrastructure, construction projects, mining, oil and gas, and event sites. Since the light tower works at temperatures from -20°C to +50°C and can operate reliably at high altitudes without derating, it is also ideal for remote work sites.
