Challenges in lighting mobile tower cranes

Mobile tower cranes, such as those from Liebherr, Spierings, Potain and other brands, play an essential role in the construction sector. These rapidly erecting cranes, with heights of up to 37 meters and boom lengths of up to 60 meters, require specific lighting solutions for safe and efficient operation. Illuminating these cranes presents unique challenges:

  • Limited mounting space The compact construction of the cranes calls for lighting that fits into the often small spaces.
  • Safety During Construction and Work: Good lighting is crucial for visibility and communication, both during the setup of the crane and during lifting operations.
  • Robustness and Reliability The lighting must be resistant to vibrations, moisture, and extreme conditions.
  • Energy Efficiency and Sustainability: There is a need for lighting that saves energy and has a long lifespan.

A summary of our high-profile projects

Environmentally conscious building with our lighting

Progressive builders choose our mobile tower crane LED lighting to maximize workplace safety while simultaneously preventing disruption to the environment. This is essential at a time when sustainability and environmentally conscious construction are paramount.

Importance of EN 12464-2 for safe construction site lighting

Of EN 12464-2 is the European standard for lighting and illumination of outdoor workplaces. This standard specifies the requirements for good lighting on construction sites to ensure the safety and well-being of workers. It sets guidelines for minimum illuminance, uniformity and color rendering.

Why is this important for businesses?

  • Employee safety Adequate lighting reduces the risk of accidents.
  • Legal compliance Failure to comply with the standard can lead to legal consequences and fines. Furthermore, you are fully liable in the event of an accident with insufficient lighting.
  • Efficiency and productivity: Good lighting improves visibility, leading to more efficient and accurate work.
  • Image and reputation: Companies that comply with safety standards and environmental requirements demonstrate their commitment to the well-being of their employees and the environment. 
 

Our lighting solutions are designed to meet the requirements of the European standard. EN 12464-2, so you can build your projects with confidence.

Environmental benefits of our mobile tower crane lighting

  • Energy saving: High efficiency up to 140 lm/W reduces energy consumption and CO2 emissions; you save an average of 65% by switching to our LED mobile tower light.
  • Sustainable Materials: Long lifespan reduces waste and the need for frequent replacement. With the circular economy in mind, you can bring your old conventional light sources to us for recycling.
  • Support in Permit Procedures: We can provide you with well-founded advice and reports with which you can demonstrate that your construction project complies with environmental regulations and permit requirements, thereby preventing delays.
