Continuing the expansion of its range of mobile light towers, Magnum Products LLC has introduced a new top end to its Nightbuster light tower line. The MLT5200 light tower is available with four or six of Magnum's newly designed lights that can illuminate as much as seven acres, and the unit can also provide up to 20 kW of electrical power to run tools or other worksite accessories.
According to Magnum President and Co-owner Steve Romme, the MLT5200 was originally designed to the specifications of a specific customer, but the company later decided to develop it as a standard offering. "Again, it all comes back to listening to the customer and providing what they need," Romme said. "It's what we're good at."
The MLT5200 light tower is powered by a four-cylinder, liquid-cooled Isuzu 4LE1 diesel engine rated 31 hp at 1800 rpm, which drives a Marathon brushless, self-regulated generator. The other models in the MLT range incorporate Marathon generator ends driven by Mitsubishi liquid-cooled diesels, with Radiator Specialists cooling systems The MLT5200 light tower also offers 20 kW of prime power at 120/240 Vac with [+ or -] 1% electronic voltage regulation. Six external outlets are provided--two 120 Vac 20 amp GFCI duplex outlets, two 240 Vac 30 amp twist-lock outlets and two 125/250 Vac 50 amp three-pole, four-wire twist-lock outlets.
Like the company's other light tower models, the MLT 5200 is offered with options of four or six of Magnum's new brighter lights with dual manual or electric mast winch systems. The mast can be extended as high as 30 ft. and with the outriggers in place, the unit can withstand winds as strong as 65 mph, the company said.
The MLT5200 enclosure offers a lockable storage area for the lights as well as an integral containment system in case of fuel or coolant spills. The unit has a 57 gal. poly fuel tank that provides a run time of 27 hours at full load.
Magnum has also made recent modifications to its Magnum Mobile Generator (MMG) line. After incorporating Tier 2 diesel engines and making some other modifications, many of the products have changed model number and performance specifications.
The MMG line uses all liquid-cooled John Deere Tier 2 diesel engines rated 43 to 512 hp at 1800 rpm.
The company has discontinued production of the smallest model, the MMG 25, for the rental markets. According to Magnum Marketing Manager Jim Roberts, with the switch to the new engines the company found that it could provide the more powerful MMG 35 for almost the same cost as the MMG 25. "It wasn't a difficult decision," he said.
The MMG 35 incorporates a liquid-cooled, turbocharged John Deere diesel engine rated 43 hp at 1800 rpm that drives a Marathon brushless generator. The engine and generator are packaged in a smaller housing than the MMG 25, yet has a three-phase output of 29 kW standby (26 kW single-phase standby).
Magnum has also recently unveiled a new range of mobile generators. According to Romme, the Magnum Light Generator, which was released in the first quarter, "was born out of listening to the customer
