20-35 ft Towable Light Tower

The 20-35 ft band suits applications requiring area lighting across several thousand square meters—road construction, large equipment staging, event setup, emergency response, and utility projects where a single tower replaces multiple smaller units. When coverage needs are confined to a single small work cell, driveway, or residential repair (under 2,000 m²), the Up to 20 ft Towable Light Tower offers easier handling and lower fuel consumption. This 20-35 ft class is the top rung of the towable ladder; operations requiring permanent installation, heights above 35 ft, or integration with fixed infrastructure typically move to stationary floodlight arrays or vehicle-mounted systems rather than a larger towable size.

• Highway resurfacing and line-striping during nighttime lane closures
• Utility substation construction and transformer installation in unlit yards
• Commercial parking lot demolition and grading over multi-acre sites
• Emergency response staging areas for wildfire, flood, or infrastructure failure
• Bridge deck repair and inspection where scaffolding requires overhead illumination
• Open-pit mining haul roads and loading zones operating around the clock

• Mast extension and retraction require clear overhead space and attention to power lines, tree canopies, and aircraft approach zones; many jurisdictions require overhead clearance surveys before deployment.
• Stabilizing outriggers or ballast must be deployed on level ground to prevent tip-over during wind events; manufacturer load charts specify maximum wind speed for extended operation.
• Refueling procedures require engine shutdown and ventilation; diesel spillage on hot engine components presents fire risk in dry or combustible environments.
• Sound levels of 63–68 dB(A) at operator position necessitate hearing protection during maintenance and may trigger noise-ordinance compliance in residential or noise-sensitive zones.

• Road-towable via pintle hitch or ball coupler by pickup trucks and service vehicles rated for 880–11,000 lb trailer loads; heavier models require ¾-ton or larger tow vehicles.
• Self-contained axle and wheel assembly with DOT-compliant lighting and breakaway braking; most units meet highway speed limits without escort.
• Compact footprint when stowed (mast retracted) allows storage in standard equipment yards and transport through residential streets to confined sites.

• Integrated diesel generator (3–12 hp) powers lamps and onboard controls; no external electrical connection required for lighting operation.
• Fuel consumption typically 0.6–1.8 gal/hr depending on load and ambient conditions; 30–117 gal tanks provide 17 to 195 hours of continuous runtime.
• Some models include auxiliary 120/240 V outlets (up to 17.5 kVA) for powering hand tools, chargers, or small site equipment alongside the lighting array.
