VT-2 5,5m/7m

Compact and Uncomplicated

The VT-2 is a very compact, versatile lighting tower, featuring a 7m vertical, manually operated mast coupled to a useful 6.0kVA super-silenced diesel generator. It is fitted with four 400-watt metal halide lamps, with secure and adjustable height stabilisers - all tested in wind speeds of 80km/h.

The VT-2 is ideally suited for rental firms considering entering into the lucrative metal halide market, but may be discouraged, principally because of the perception that many current lighting models are large and cumbersome, requiring specialist transport and significant storage areas.

The VT-2 is the correct lighting set for small and medium sized construction projects and outside events. It is also ideal for providing proper illumination in some civil protection situations.

  1. Features & Benefits
  2. Illuminated areas
  3. Dimensions

The VT-2 is extremely light and mobile, with options for site or road tow facilities and is available with a number of environmentally beneficial features and benefits including;

    • A fully bunded fuel tank – almost eliminating the chance of leakage
    • The latest micro particle oil filters – which enhance engine life and reduce oil usage
    • The fuel tank can be fitted with a unique fuel float system which ensures that only clean fuel is used - resulting in fewer site breakdowns and less service engineers on the road
    • Enhanced soundproofing and noise reduction - helping to lower residual site noise pollution
    • Low fuel shutdown - saves fitters attending site to bleed engines.
    • The overall footprint of the complete unit has been reduced - meaning that a higher number of units can be delivered on just one truck

  • Only safety has been considered, because no perception of detail is needed and visual fatigue is unlikely.
    However, where it is necessary to see detail to recognise a hazard or where error in performing the task could put someone else at risk, for safety purposes as well as to avoid visual fatigue, the figure needs to be increased to that for work requiring the perception of detail.
    The CIBSE (Code for interior lighting) gives more information and recommendation based on scientific knowledge, practical experience, technical feasibility and economic reality.
  • The purpose is to avoid fatigue; the illuminances will be adequate for safety purposes.
