Made in Texas
The WCDE-49-16X1500 Mega Tower 24000 from Larson Electronics is a high power lighting package powered by a 24kw brushless water cooled diesel generator. The sixteen 1500 watt metal halide lamps included with this unit produce a combined total of 2,400,000 lumens and will illuminate a 10+ acre area continuously without refueling for up to 27 hours.
The WCDE-49-16X1500 Mega Tower 24000 is a self contained, towable, high power light tower package that produces enough light to illuminate an area 10+ acres in size. This unit contains a water cooled diesel engine powering a 55KW generator, which supplies the current for sixteen 1,500 watt metal halide lights producing 150,000 lumens each, for a combined total of 2,400,000 lumens of light. This unit can run uninterrupted for up to 27 hours straight without refueling and includes a telescoping light mast which can elevate the sixteen metal halide lamps to a height of 58`. This light boom can be extended to 58` for maximum area coverage, and collapsed to 22` for applications where a footprint smaller is required. The tower is constructed of heat treated aluminum tubing with 2.69` foot of overlap per section. The mast is elevated using an included hydraulic ram, and extended to its full height using a trailer mounted air compressor.
This mobile floodlight package is ideal for large scale event illumination, construction, mining, industrial operations, and anywhere a mobile full power lighting system capable of extended operation is needed.
Genset: The WCDE-49-16X1500 mobile light tower includes a Perkins genset that houses a Perkins 1104D-44TG1 turbocharged diesel engine that powers the 55KW 120/240 brushless generator. This genset is liquid cooled and features a single phase generator with electric start ignition. The diesel generator runs at 1800 RPM. A 100 gallon fuel cell sits beside the genset and is equipped with an electric fuel delivery system. The fuel cell is constructed of single a heavy gauge steel single wall frame with internal anti-splash baffles. This genset features key operated electric starting, a twelve volt electrical system, liquid cooling, replaceable dry element air cleaner, and a full enclosure for safe operation and protection against the elements. This engine also features cold weather glow plugs to improve performance under cold weather conditions.
Lights: The lighting system on this unit is comprised of sixteen 1,500 watt metal halide lamps producing 150,000 lumens of light each attached to the end of the telescoping pneumatic light boom. These floodlights produce a wide flood light pattern capable of illuminating a minimum of 10 acres with a combined total of 24,000 watts and 2,400,000 lumens of light. The entire lighting assembly is connected to the power source via a precision light controller ballast and breaker box.
Telescoping Boom: The pneumatic telescoping boom is constructed of heat treated aluminum with an powder coated finish and extends up 58` in height. This boom is raised from and lowered to the folded position by a single hydraulic ram, and extended or retracted by pnumaitc system with equipped air compressor.

Wiring/Controls: The light heads are grouped into banks of four. Each bank in wired into the NEMA 3R breaker control box at the base of the mast. Operators control the light heads via an on/off switched breaker per bank of four light heads. The air compressor and battery charger are also powered from within this breaker box. Power is provided to the control box via a 20` 10/4 SOOW whip with flying leads for connected to terminal mount gensets. Operators supply 240/120V or 208/120V (depending on the configuration) to the light plant. The mast elevation is controlled by a push button switch to operate the hydraulic ram, allowing operators to raise the mast to the upright position. The vertical deployment is operated by an up/down level, allowing operators to extend it to its full 50` height or retract it to the collapsed height.
The entire unit is mounted onto a four wheel, tandem axle trailer constructed of 8" box steel equipped with axles. Each axle is rated at 7,000 lbs and equipped with P235/80R16 tubeless tires and wheels. The rear axle is equipped with electric brakes. Tongue weight is rated at 650 lbs and an adjustable 3†lunnett eye for pintle hitches provides secure hookup to tow vehicles. A single 7,000 lbs rated tongue jack provides a stable connect-disconnect platform as well as additional stability during tower deployment. Standard heavy duty safety chains are included. This trailer also includes a front mounted storage area for stowing tools and accessories. The trailer is finished in industrial grade Dupont™ paint for protection against rust and corrosion and provides an attractive finish. Overall dimensions of the entire trailer and boom assembly in the stowed for travel configuration is 21` long by 7’ wide.
Six 7,000 lbs hand crank jacks are used for raising the trailer up off the ground, and four 7,000 lbs hand crank jacks mounted on extending outriggers are used for leveling and stabilizing the trailer assembly. Each of the four jacks are attached to a pivoting outrigger constructed of 6` by 6" by 6.3" steel I-beams. The jacks can be leveled by hand crank or attachment provided for power drills. These outriggers can be extended 6` out from the side of the trailer for added stability. This light plant can withstand 35 mph winds when fully extended. When lowered to 30`, the mast can withstand 50 mph winds. When lowered to 22`, the mast can withstand wind speeds up to 95 mph with gusts of 125 mph. Custom builds can be provided for higher wind speed resistance when fully raised.
We offer a choice of finishing, equipped light heads, and with or without gensets. These towers can be fitted with Larson Electronics line of high output light heads, or customize the mast head to meet the mounting requirements for your equipment. Optional diesel generators and fuel cells can be equipped from factory, or retrofitted after purchase.

Refund Policy
Return & Refund Policy
For All non-Larson Products If you are not satisfied with a product, contact us by emailing or call 1-844-787-LITE within 30 days of receipt. A refund may be arranged excluding freight charges upon inspection. Returned merchandise must be shipped in original packaging, freight prepaid, unused, and in resalable condition, and are subject to 25% restocking fee. PuriLite inspects all returns and reserves the right to refuse credits on damaged, used or non-resalable items. Your only obligation is the freight charge and restocking fee, provided your return is complete with original packaging, all documentation, warranty cards, cables etc. PuriLite reserves the right to authorize product returns after 30 days have passed from the order date. If the product is accepted after this period, it is subject to a 25% restocking fee and credit will be issued toward future purchases only.
Shipping and handling charges are non-refundable for all returns. The customer may also be responsible for return shipping charges, insurance and shipment tracking for returned merchandise.
Once you place an order, the following products are non-returnable: custom-cut, customer built or special order items (such as matting, slings, cranes, prefab offices, buildings, mezzanines, assembled lockers and regularly stocked items such as generators, pressure washers, water and trash pumps, snow throwers, radio headsets, striping paint, line stripers, floor care machines, vacuums, custom fabric chairs, forklifts) your order is considered non-cancellable and any custom-cut, customer built or special order items purchased by you are also non-returnable. Consumable style bulbs or lamps are not returnable. There are no returns on any medical and/or sanitizing products for obvious safety reasons. This includes PPE (including masks), tests, thermometers, sprayers and UVC lighting of any kind (portable and surface).
Leased and hazardous items are also non-returnable. Contact customer service for a complete list of applicable products.
Larson product return policy Every order is tested prior to shipping. The product is tested before it is put into the shipping box, crate, pallet, etc. Larson take pictures and videos of every product for every order being shipped, and store these pictures and videos with the order number in our system. Because of the complexity of some of our products, we have a very limited return policy.
For safety reasons, we do not accept returns on any hazardous location, explosion proof or intrinsically safe products. Once these products leave the factory, we cannot be sure what happens to them. We must re-build and re-certify the units to specification to ensure that the next customer receives an item that is safe to use. This is cost prohibitive. For that reason, we do not accept returns on classified products. We do not accept returns on transformers, phase converters, or frequency converters. In order to install one of the aforementioned products, typically customers will modify the product (i.e. penetrate the housing to make connections, punch out knockouts, remove or damage tinning on lead wires during installation). Because we video test every unit before it ships to ensure the unit operates as described, we know when they leave here the units are operationally functional and meet the output voltage when supplied with the input voltage per the product specification. To be clear, we do not accept returns on these items under any circumstances for these reasons.
Products that are not addressed in the above two conditions must be returned in new, unused condition.
Below are some additional considerations:
Electrical/electronic parts are easily damaged by improper installation or testing. Because electronics are very sensitive to voltage overloads, it does not take much of a voltage spike to ruin a component. Because of this risk, all electrical products returned will undergo electrical testing and assessed a testing fee. This fee will be subtracted from the final return value.
Consumable style bulbs or lamps are not returnable.
Products that contain emergency backup components are subject to very narrow warranty terms and do not qualify for return. For customer convenience, we engage the battery pack prior to shipping all emergency backup products. Many times, particularly with hazardous location rated products, the battery packs are difficult to access and the customer generally plans to install the units shortly after receipt of the shipment. Battery backup components using older technologies (Nicad, NIMH, SLA, etc) will fail quickly if they do not maintain valid grid tie support. In other words, the batteries must receive a consistent maintained charge to perpetuate long lifespans. Battery backup products that are shelved (not installed) for periods greater than 3 weeks will likely fail and need replacement sooner. This replacement will not be covered under warranty. This can also occur is the units are installed but the grid tie option is not connected correctly. Customers can specify that they do not want the battery pack to be engaged at the time of ordering if they plan to shelve the units for long periods of time prior to installation.
There are many products on the site and not all pictures depict the exact configuration of each product. Many products are custom built and/or built on demand. In some cases, products are designed and not sold immediately and rendering may be used. In all cases, the end product is built to the specification listed and the pictures shown may be close approximations. Pictures are more likely to be close approximations with more complex products, including transformers, power distribution systems, control systems, light tower systems and other highly customizable products. In no way does the approximation validate a potential return. We always build to the specification. If customers have questions, they should ask prior to purchase to clarify.
There are no returns on any medical and/or sanitizing products for obvious safety reasons. This includes PPE (including masks), tests, thermometers, sprayers and UVC lighting of any kind (portable and surface)
Many international orders, specialty orders and other complex build orders require prepayment in advance. This prepayment represents a commitment to the order. Cancelling the order will result in a deduction from the original amount paid if any refund is available, since an investment of time and money is typically required to acquire materials and prepare the order. While not all orders in this category require prepayment, cancellation fees may apply to other build orders as well. The percentage of the deduction is at Larson’s discretion but usually ranges from 30 to 50%.
How to Return For all returns, you can email us at sales@purilite.ca. You will need the invoice number in the subject line of the email. You can use one of your preferred carriers. Please note that for freight collect shipments, you are responsible for order tracking once the freight is loaded onto the truck. In addition, PuriLite Industrial cannot assist you with filing damage claims with your carrier.
