Larson Electronics’ Magnalight.com announced today the release of the Epl-emg-48-2l-led hazardous location LED light with emergency battery backup. This LED fixture is ideal for upgrading from fluorescent explosion proof fixtures and provides Class 1 Division 1 protection as well as the security of battery backup operation in the event of power failures. With instant on operation, no ballast and better light output than comparable fluorescent lights, the EPL-EMG-48-2L-LED is ideal for operators seeking to improve their lighting systems without compromising on power.

Larson Electronics’ Magnalight.com announced today the release of the EPL-EMG-48-2L-LED explosion proof emergency LED light which is designed to provide explosion proof protection as well as emergency operation capability in the event of power outages. This hazardous location LED fixture is constructed similarly to comparable two tube T5-HO fluorescent fixtures, but produces nearly twice as many lumens at the work space by utilizing Magnalight’s specially designed LED T-series bulbs. When measured with an Extech light meter at 8 feet, these bulbs produce nearly 2.5 times as much illumination as 54 watt T5-HO bulbs, making this explosion proof emergency light not only more efficient than fluorescent lamps, but more powerful as well. The housings on these explosion proof emergency lights  are constructed of non-sparking aluminum for durability and resistance to corrosion, and impact and heat resistant Pyrex tubes protect the LED bulbs against contamination from dust, dirt, overspray, and impacts. These units have no ballast, which provides an added degree of reliability over fluorescent fixtures as well as instant on operation with no warm up times or lamp flicker. An integrally mounted battery backup system located within the lamp housing provides 90 minutes of light operation in the event of power failures. When normal power to the unit is cut through power failure, the emergency backup battery automatically kicks in and provides 90 minutes of emergency illumination. Once power is restored, the backup battery is automatically recharged and readied for operation. These explosion proof LED lights are ideal for a wide variety of applications and are approved Class 1 Division 1, UL 595 outdoor marine type, and paint spray booth approved as well. The Epl-emg-48-2l-led is versatile in power options, capable of operating with current ranging from 120V to 277V AC 50/60 Hz, and available in 12-24 VDC configuration for low voltage applications. Magnalight offers mounting options including pendant, and surface mounting configurations, and can work with operators to custom configure fixtures according to their needs.

“The EPL-EMG-48-2L-LED explosion proof light carries a spray booth light certification and offers operators cost savings since it doubles as a standard source of illumination and as an emergency light,” said Rob Bresnahan with Larson Electronics’ Magnalight.com.  “This explosion proof LED light will continue to operate for 90 minutes once the electrical current has been severed and under normal conditions the light will function like a standard light.  This Class 1 and Class 2 Division 1 LED emergency light can be used in paint spray operations and areas where  gas and/or dust are present, making it extremely versatile.”

Larson Electronics’ Magnalight.com announced today the release of a rechargeable light tower for portable scene lighting applications. Extendable to 8 feet in height and easily recharged from common 115VAC or 12VDC power sources, this portable light tower is compact in size and ideal for use as an utility, emergency scene, or flagger light.

The LEDP5W-12LT portable light tower from Magnalight.com produces 5,556 lumens and can run for five hours on a single charge of its onboard 33 amp hour AGM sealed lead acid battery. This portable light tower can be charged from standard 115 wall outlets using the included charging unit, or recharged from 12 volt DC power sources such as vehicles and equipment. Operators can also use this unit as an external power source to power 12 volt DC accessories. This portable tower consists of a compact case which houses all components when in the stowed configuration, an aluminum tower that can be extended from 3 to 8 feet in height, and a sealed AGM lead acid deep cycle battery rated at 33 amp hours and 500+ charge cycles. Illumination is provided by a single IP 67 rated 60 watt LED light head producing 5,556 lumens. The LED light head contains 12 five watt LEDs, is constructed of extruded aluminum for durability, and includes a polycarbonate lens to protect the LEDs. The Led light head is adjustable, allowing operators to deploy the unit, extend the tower, and adjust the light head through 270 degrees of vertical movement for optimal light placement. Folding polyethylene legs allow operators to improve tower stability in windy conditions, and when extended provide a larger 30 inch support base. This unit weighs only 37 lbs and is about the size of an average piece of luggage when stowed, making it ideal for operators in construction, utility and first responder applications who require an easily transported and deployed source of illumination.

“The LEDP5W-12LT is a portable, rechargeable LED light tower capable of running for 5 hours on a full charge,” said Rob Bresnahan with Larson Electronics’ Magnalight.com.  “First responders or construction site workers will find 5500 plus lumens output useful for a temporary light solution for emergency situations.  The telescoping aluminum mast will extend to a maximum of 8 feet and will easily collapse and stow away in the case for easy transport in any work truck.”

Larson Electronic announced today the addition of a high power mega light tower to its extensive line of mobile lighting equipment. Designed to provide illumination for large scale projects and events, this mobile light tower produces over 2 million lumens and can effectively illuminate an area 10 acres in size. Incorporating quality components and constructed of heavy duty materials, the WCDE-49-16X1500 Mega Light Tower 24000 is ideal for construction and mining projects, event illumination, and outdoor industrial applications.

The WCDE-49-16X1500 Mega Light Tower24000 is a trailer mounted lighting package that combines a self contained diesel engine and generator, extendable light tower, and mobile trailer platform to produce a unit capable of extreme illumination of large scale areas. This mobile tower produces 2,400,000 lumens and can run for extended periods without refueling to provide an ideal lighting solution for large scale projects where around the clock operation is necessary. A single John Deere™ water cooled diesel engine producing 80 horsepower turns a Marathon™ 4 pole brushless generator to produce 49 KW/ 59KVA of power. The lighting assembly consists of sixteen 1,500 watt metal halide fixtures producing 150,000 lumens each, for a combined total of 2,400,000 lumens of light output. A single 113 gallon fuel tank provides ample fuel for operating up to 27 hours continuously, and an optional 95 gallon auxiliary fuel tank allows operators to increase runtimes substantially. The lighting assembly is mounted to the end of a hydraulically raised and extended tower constructed of galvanized steel that can be raised to a maximum of 55 feet in height for excellent coverage of locations up to 10 acres or more in size. This mobile light tower package is mounted to a heavy duty trailer with a pintle hitch hookup and includes 6 heavy duty outriggers equipped with 7,000 lbs jacks to provide secure and stable deployment. The trailer is equipped with dual 7,000 lbs axles, electric brakes, 16 inch tubeless tires, and is finished in a durable and attractive Dupont™ black coating for protection against rust and corrosion. An included leveling indicator allows operators to adjust outrigger positioning for level deployment, and an included storage box provides space for tools and operating accessories. This unit also provides convenience power connections for hooking up additional equipment including two 20 AMP GFCI duplex outlets, and two 125/250V 50 AMP 3 pole 4 twist-lock outlets. This rugged high power light tower is built for large scale illumination and extended use, making it an ideal solution for construction, mining, industrial, and large scale event operators who need a mobile source of high power illumination that will allow them to maintain operations continuously through evening hours.

“The Magnalight WCDE-49-16X1500 is our new mega light tower that gives remote site operators the ability to illuminate 10 acres,” said Rob Bresnahan with Larson Electronics’ Magnalight.com.  “With 24,000 watts elevated to 60 feet, this is the ultimate light tower that easily replaces six to eight standard light towers.  For oilfield and mining operators, this means less transportation, set up and maintenance.”
