FLOODLIGHTING

A new portable floodlighting unit is so compact and light that when dis- mantled it can be carried by two men and transported in an estate car. De- spite its compactness however, the equipment can illuminate a rectangular site of up to 1200 sq. yd.

For transporting, the 20 ft. mast, lamp and stabilising legs stow on the

The mast comprises four alumini- um alloy sections which slot together. Its minimum operational height is 10 ft. and its maximum 20 ft. The genera- tor unit consists of a four-stroke single-cylinder petrol engine with re- coil start driving a 1250 W, 110 V or 240 V 50 Hz, single-phase alternator.
