High-Power Light Tower: Heavy-Duty Canopy
The CPLT V15 Light Tower features a cluster of four 1,000-watt metal halide lamps that, according to the manufacturer, can illuminate an area of up to seven acres. Running on a Kubota Tier 4 diesel engine, a 28-gallon fuel tank grants the light tower a run time of 50 hours. The durable polyethylene canopy protects the engine from harsh jobsite conditions. The light tower can be transported with its mast in the upright position, making it easier to transport multiple light towers on a single trailer. Chicago Pneumatic; www.cp.com
