Atlas Copco’s HiLight V5+ light towers show toughness in a new light. The forward thinking HiLight V5+ from Atlas Copco offers advanced LED solutions. It is the safest and most efficient light tower for road construction, airports, hydro power projects, mining and construction applications.

With time bound projects and the need for 24 by 7 action to ensure on time completion, technology which ensures reliable light on site, brings in the required support for meeting the road construction project deadlines.  Atlas Copco’s newest addition to its portfolio, the HiLight V5+ LED light tower, illuminates an area of approximately 5,000 sqm with an average brightness of 20 lux. This LED light tower is the 1st CPCB II compliant light tower in India for the entire light tower, which ensures sites are brighter, safer and more productive.

The HiLight V5+ include a HardHat® canopy as standard, which ensures maximum protection of internal parts. Our lamps come with IP 67 protection. This range of light towers is perfect for multiple drop and pick up ideal for rental applications and providing users a robust and easy-to-transport set of lighting options that match any site requirements. The extended safety features also guarantee the protection of bulbs during transportation.

Innovators in bringing in LED lighting technology to India

Here are some of the innovative ways in which we lead the way for brighter and safer light:

Illumination with LED lighting technology

The HiLight V5+ can illuminate an area of approximately 5,000 sq m with an average brightness of 20 lux while ensuring low fuel consumption.

  • High Efficiency LED 4 x 350 W
  • Special optics designed by Atlas Copco to maximise light coverage
  • Instant light
  • Dedicated power pack for LED application working at the right power load.
  • Manual Mast (electric winch option). The manual vertical mast can be rotated quickly and easily to light a different area while fully extended to its maximum height of 7.5 m.
  • Delivers the correct tone of light.
  • The fully directional optic lens maximises practical light coverage while minimising dark spots improving visibility on the job site.
  • LED lamp life expectancy of 30,000 hours.
  • Each lamp can withstand baseball impact thrown at speed at 100 MPH

Efficiency with savings

  • The HiLight V5+ is the first CPCB-II compliant light tower in India for the entire light tower
  • Thanks to its Hardhat® canopy, the HiLight V5+ is the most silent light tower in its segment in India
  • It is a premium model incorporating LED lighting technology and increased fuel efficiency
  • These light towers deliver fuel savings of up to 50 per cent when compared to the typical fuel consumption of a 6-kW metal halide solution
  • Transport efficiency: Ultra compact footprint; Towing speed – 80 km per hour
  • Lowest operating cost: 150 hours of continuous run time; 400 hours service interval ensures the light towers have maximised uptime and consequently increased productivity for end-users

HardHat canopy

The “Can you beat a HardHat canopy?” at Excon 2017, proved the durability and strength of the HiLight V5+ canopy, which remained sturdy and was not damaged or dented even when hit by a cricket bat several times by many of our customers in a major construction trade show

  • The HiLight V5+ includes a HardHat® canopy as standard, which provides tough protection of internal parts against harsh conditions.

Atlas Copco light towers focus on the environment footprint

“Most Eco Friendly Light Tower in India” Design Award:

Atlas Copco has proved its prowess and leadership in LED technology. Atlas Copco was awarded the prestigious Red Dot Design Award of 2017 for the HiLight H5+ LED light tower. And, the HiLight V5+ was awarded the Yellow Dot Design Award of 2017 as “India’s most eco-friendly light tower” in recognition of it being the first CPCB II compliant light tower and the most silent light tower in its segment in India.

Specific features which manage the light tower environment footprint are:

  • Durable, environment-friendly and quick-to-shift, the HiLight V5+ ensures no corrosion or damages.
  • Super silent: As low as 75dBA as per CPCB-II
  • Environment-friendly: Spillage-free frame traps oil leakage and prevents ground contamination
  • Easy access thanks to two big scissor doors
  • Strong support jack to withstand heavy wind

Pandemic Impact

Our main focus continues to be safety of our employees and our customers. We have taken the necessary steps to ensure social distancing and hygiene norms in our production facilities in Chakan and Dapodi located in Pune. We maintain the highest norms for employee care while ensuring our equipment meets the quality and performance which our customers have come to know and expect. Besides this, our service team follows strict predefined SOP for on-site visits, which are necessary to ensure our portable air compressors and light towers are always up and running. We also manage service requests remotely wherever possible with our Power Connect mobile app designed to support customers online with the help of Parts manuals and step-by-step assistance over the computer or phone.
