Working with itsAustralian service partner,Access ServiceAustralia, Morris Site Machinery will provide its SMCTL90 Standard ELVs and the latest SMC Ultimate TL90 ELVs, all featuring the added safety features including speaking alarms, lockable isolators and an easy lift jockey wheel. The models will be fitted with anti-glare halo lamp heads, which are virtually indestructible and deliver 360 degrees of 1200W diffused light from four 300W LED quadrants, Phil Winnington, International Business Director, said. “The quadrant diffuser is constructed from a tough high performance LLDPE material, similar to that used in highway products like road safety cones, and creates a bright, anti-glare, even spread of light,” Phil said. “This latest contract win shows once again the overseas appetite for innovation. The combination of our specially designed ELV option and new anti-glare lamp head is proving highly successful. “This order illustrates how we work with our customers, developing products to meet specific requirements and bringing cutting- edge technology to provide greater choice. There are more than 24 modifications now available with our lighting towers so we can design models to suit the customer’s needs, be that a different wheel size, dual voltage socket or a level sensor.” The Standard TL90 and the Ultimate TL90 both feature super silent operation at only 60dB(A) at 7m and use bio-degradable oil with increased bunding to protect the environment from spillages. The units also include QR codes to assist in safe set-up on site anywhere in the world along with an uninterrupted running time of over 265 hours on the Ultimate.
