GENERAL INFORMATION

The GB4000 lamp fixture is a difused balloon light that is designed to be mounted and operated on most conventional mobile light tower masts. Its design and features permit clean, difused light to be cast uniformly over 232 feet (70.7 meters).

The shadow-less lighting dramatically reduces glare in the work area. This type of lighting improves safety and enhances the illuminated area. The GB4000 is ideal for highway work, construction job sites, security support, and special events.

The balloon light assembly is supported by four 1000-watt metal halide lamps, self-inflating durable polyester balloon bag, protective lamp guard, quick disconnect communal mast bracket, and self-contained electrical junction box.

Once attached to the mast, the GB4000 utilizes the ballast assembly, electrical conduits, and receptacle connections of conventional mobile light towers to permit operation.

The GB4000 requires 2000 watts of power and the host light tower electrical ballast system for operation.Total lamp operation will be limited to the design and capacity of the host light tower.

The unit easily disconnects from the light tower mast and can be easily stored in its protective canvas cover case.
