Light tower with generator & mains transfer

For locations without a fixed power supply or where continuity is essential, a light tower with a generator and mains transfer offers the perfect solution. This combination ensures maximum flexibility: operating fully independently where necessary, and automatically switching to mains power when available. Ideal for construction sites, events, and temporary installations where reliability is key.

Fully autonomous and flexible

A light tower with a generator operates completely independently thanks to the integrated power supply. This means you are not dependent on external connections and can provide lighting immediately at any desired location.

In combination with mains transfer, this system becomes even more powerful. When mains power is available, the installation switches automatically, and in the event of a failure, the generator takes over immediately. This ensures a continuous and stable light supply without interruptions.

Advantages of a light tower with generator & mains transfer

Our light towers with generator and mains transfer offer reliable and efficient lighting, even in locations without a fixed power supply. Thanks to their robust construction, they are resistant to intensive use and harsh weather conditions. The automatic mains transfer ensures that in the event of a power failure, the system immediately switches to the generator, so the lighting always remains functional. This makes the light tower not only powerful, but also smart and reliable.
