Magnalight Releases Adjustable Quad Pod LED Light Tower Designed for Demanding Hazardous Location Use

KEMP, Texas, Feb. 16, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Larson Electronics' Magnalight.com has announced the release of a high power LED light tower that produces intense output while providing rugged durability and explosion proof protection. Adjustable and collapsible, this LED light tower produces illumination comparable to 400 watt metal halide lights while using a fraction the amount of energy. Constructed of heavy duty steel and rugged aluminum, this LED light tower is Class 1 Division 2 approved and well suited to applications where durability, power and portability are of prime importance.

The HAL-QP-1X150LED-100 hazardous location LED light tower from Magnalight.com is an LED light tower constructed of heavy duty materials to withstand the demanding conditions of industrial hazardous locations. This hazardous location light tower produces 14,790 lumens from a single 150 watt LED light head and is capable of illuminating 18,000 square feet of work space with sharp and clean white light. Built with durability in mind, this light tower is constructed of heavy gauge steel, with an adjustable LED light head encased within a copper free aluminum fixture equipped with a tempered glass door and heavy duty silicone door gasket. The mast on this unit is extendable from 7' to 10' feet in 2 inch increments, and is locked into place with spring loaded clips that make adjustments fast and simple. As well as durable operation, this high power light tower provides good portability with an easily removed light head assembly and four fold up quad pod legs that allow operators to easily collapse and stow this unit for transport to and from work locations. Increased portability and versatility is added through an included wheeled base which allows users to simply tilt the unit back and roll it to different locations within the work area. As an added bonus for operators, this collapsible design allows Magnalight to avoid pallet freight shipping and deliver these units via UPS next day air, thereby reducing costs to the operator associated with shipping and delivery. The light output from this LED light tower easily rivals that of comparable 400 watt metal halide lights, making this LED quad pod an ideal alternative to less efficient, hotter running and fragile metal halide light towers.  The quad pod legs and mast are constructed of heavy duty 1/8" thick steel to provide maximum durability and stability, and the LED light head offers a 50,000 hour operating life and reduced energy consumption as well as increased resistance to damage from shocks, vibrations and impacts. Included with this quad pod tower is 100 feet of SOOW cord and an explosion proof plug to provide ample length for deployment at extended distances from power sources. This LED light tower is approved for Class 1 Division 2 hazardous locations, and offers power, durability, and portable operation that traditional glass bulb and wire filament lighting cannot match.

"The HAL-QP-1X150LED-100 rated Class 1 Division 2 was built tough to withstand the demanding conditions of hazardous area locations," said Rob Bresnahan with Larson Electronics' Magnalight.com.  "This light tower is capable of illuminating an 18,000 square foot work area; then can be easily dismantled and transported to another location.  The design of this tower makes it easily air freighted without being palletized.  Operators working in emergency services, marine environments, and mining will find this rugged tower meets their needs for reliable illumination in critical work areas."
