high mast lighting for low down
conven- ience
Mast lowered for servicing
Masts can
be sited 240 ft. apart.
Four to six lanterns
per mast.
Special lanterns for mercury or
sodium lamps.
Lanterns lowered for
easy servicing.
One mast will supply the same light as six
or more conventional columns.
Light from high masts foreshortens shadows and eliminates glare. This permits ideal light for ideal night driving on multi-level, complex road junctions in city centres, open areas and docks. During the day, appearance is improved by the use of fewer columns. Masts may be sited clear of the road structure, removing a potential traffic hazard and making maintenance at ground level safer. Mounting height is from 60 ft. to 120 ft.
