Larson Electronics 112' Hydraulic Megatower™ Mast - 33' Trailer - 20KW Genset - Auto Retract - Mounting Platform

DESCRIPTION

The WCDE-20-HLM100-WSM is a self contained, towable tower package. This unit contains a water cooled diesel engine powering a 20KW Kubota generator, which supplies the current for customer-provided equipment. This unit includes a hydraulic telescoping mast which can elevate customer-provided equipment to heights above 65`. The hydraulic tower features an overall transport height of 8` 6". This light plant features an external oil pump system. Oil must be changed every 3,000 hours. This heavy-duty Megatower has been specifically made for extremely rough applications and can be transported over almost any kind of rough terrain.

This telescoping seven stage hydraulic light mast from Larson Electronics is designed to allow operators to quickly and safely deploy customer-provided equipment in locations where devices must be elevated to heights above 65`. This heavy-duty mast can be collapsed to 30` for applications where a smaller footprint is required. The tower is constructed of carbon steel tubing with 2` foot of overlap per section. The mast is elevated using an included hydraulic ram and extended to its full height using a second hydraulic system.

A 16" x 16" mounting platform located at the upper section of the mast provides a strong and stable platform for mounting customer-provided equipment. The mast features a maximum weight capacity of 3,000 lbs.

 
Telescoping Boom: The hydraulic telescoping boom is constructed of carbon steel with a galvanized finish and extends to 65`. This boom is raised from and lowered to the folded position by a single hydraulic ram and extended or retracted by a second hydraulic system.
Auto Retract: To prevent damage and shaking from strong winds during operation, this tower is equipped with a robust wind monitoring system. When exposed to strong winds, such as 40 mph, the system automatically retracts the mast for safe operation. In a retracted state, operators must re-adjust the height of the mast back to its original height (or another preferred height). This cutting-edge feature is designed to improve safety at industrial work sites.

Wiring/Controls: The mast elevation is controlled by a push button switch to operate the hydraulic ram allowing operators to raise the mast to the upright position. The vertical deployment is operated by a second push button switch allowing operators to extend it to its full 100` height or retract it to the collapsed height.

Genset: The WCDE-20-HLM100-WSM mobile hydraulic Megatower™ includes a specialized genset that houses a Perkins diesel engine that powers the 20KW Stamford 120/240V brushless generator. This genset is liquid cooled and features a single phase generator with electric start ignition. The diesel generator runs at 3600 RPM and is equipped with an EPA/CARB Tier 4 emissions system. A 110 gallon fuel cell sits beside the genset and is equipped with an electric fuel delivery system. The fuel cell is constructed of single a heavy gauge steel single wall frame with internal anti-splash baffles. This genset features key operated electric starting, a twelve volt electrical system, liquid cooling, replaceable dry element air cleaner, and a full enclosure for safe operation and protection against the elements. This engine also features cold weather options to improve performance under cold weather conditions.

Trailer: The entire unit is mounted onto a four wheel, dual tandem axle trailer with 12" I-beam construction. Each axle is rated at 10,000 lbs and equipped with P235/80R16 tubeless tires and wheels. The rear axle is equipped with electric brakes. A gooseneck hitch system that extends to the truck bed, above the rear axle and the trailer, is available for secure hauling. Standard heavy duty safety chains are included. Overall length of the trailer is 33`.

Six 7,000 lbs hand crank jacks are used for raising the trailer up off the ground, and four 7,000 lbs hand crank jacks mounted on extending outriggers are used for leveling and stabilizing the trailer assembly. Each of the four jacks are attached to a pivoting outrigger constructed of 6` by 6" by 6.3" steel I-beams. The jacks can be leveled by hand crank or attachment provided for power drills. These outriggers can be extended 6` out from the side of the trailer for added stability. This light plant can withstand 35 mph winds when fully extended. When lowered to 30`, the mast can withstand 50 mph winds. When lowered to 33`, the mast can withstand wind speeds up to 95 mph with gusts of 125 mph. Custom builds can be provided for higher wind speed resistance when fully raised.

We offer a choice of finishing, equipped light heads, and with or without gensets. These towers can be fitted with Larson Electronics line of high output light heads, or customize the mast head to meet the mounting requirements for your equipment. Optional diesel generators and fuel cells can be equipped from factory, or retrofitted after purchase.

Cold Weather Package: The WCDE-20-HLM100-WSM is designed to withstand extreme cold environments and harsh winters. The hydraulic system is equipped with a de-icing system to prevent the hydraulic lines and system from freezing from moisture building within system. This de-icing system uses an environmentally friendly (non-toxic) fluid. All hydraulic lines are equipped with cold weather rated hydraulic hoses rated for -65°C and fitted with metallic hardware. All the hydraulic controls are housed within an insulated and weather tight enclosure. This hydraulic control box features 1/2" thick polystyrene foam insulation and heat trace.

The hydraulic system features -65°C cold weather rated rubber hydraulic hoses with metallic fittings and a cold weather rated high viscosity hydraulic fluid. All electrical components are wired using cold weather rated SOOW cable with rated to -50°C that features high flexibility, and extreme abrasion, acid, oil, and water resistance even in sub-zero climates.

The genset is retrofitted with a coolant heater to keep engine temperatures at optimum levels. The fuel system is equipped with an in-tank fuel heater to prevent gelling in arctic environments. The genset is equipped with 0W-40 synthetic oil. The genset`s electric battery is equipped with a battery blanket.

Suggested Applications: Elevated mounting, communication devices, cameras, temporary lighting, construction sites, outdoor events, remote job sites and any other application that requires a self-contained configuration, covering a very large area effectively.
