**LIGHTING MASTS, LIGHTNING RODS**
Illuminating large areas is a complex task. Of course, you could place ordinary metal poles around the perimeter of an object, but this would only clutter the territory and lead to excessive costs.
To uniformly illuminate an open space without shadows or glare, special **lighting masts** are used. They can withstand the impressive weight and size of the floodlights mounted on them.
1. The **shaft of the lighting mast** is formed from sheet metal. It has a faceted or round-conical shape.
2. When choosing a lighting mast, the operating conditions must be considered:
· climatic zone and wind region;
· type of suspended equipment;
· terrain of the installation site.
To protect the metal from the destructive effects of the external environment, the mast is treated by **galvanizing or painting**. The capabilities of the company's modern equipment (sheet bending press, hot-dip galvanizing baths, plasma cutting machines, robotic complexes) allow the production of masts from materials not susceptible to corrosive processes. This is important because structures are always exposed to wind, rain, snow, and ultraviolet rays. Such protection ensures a long service life.
1. Each lighting mast comes with accompanying documentation, which necessarily includes assembly and installation instructions.
1. Prices for lighting masts vary and depend on the complexity of manufacturing.
2. Design features:

Height |
This parameter depends on the number of sections used and can reach up to 50 m. The shafts of the lighting mast consist of several elements 9-12 meters long, made in the shape of a truncated pyramid. The type of sections is determined by the load distribution on the shaft. |
The parameters of the support and the material for its manufacture are calculated according to the project.
|
|
Frame Type |
Mobile |
Winch lifting capacity limitation. Allows simultaneous placement of more than six floodlights, lowering the frame and servicing it without the need for special equipment. |
|
Stationary |
The crown is rigidly fixed. Its size affects the number of places for floodlights. It can be of any shape and can be angled towards the illuminated area. |
|
|
Folding |
The number of lighting devices depends on the size of the brackets and the balance system. |
|
|
|
The stand has a flanged base plate. Mounting is done on a foundation with an embedded element or anchor block. Foundation parameters are determined by the type of mast. Sections are assembled by fitting one element onto another. Installation |
|
The **scope of application for lighting masts** is extensive. High-mast supports can be purchased for installation in administrative and economic facilities, sports complexes, open sports grounds, and for illuminating production and warehouse areas. These lighting masts are installed in airports, on highways, and in many other locations.
The installation of masts, especially tall ones, requires the provision of a **lightning rod**. This is a mandatory safety requirement for tall structures to protect both the masts and personnel. Lightning protection is needed so that during lightning discharges, the lightning rod itself absorbs the electrical discharge, which is then safely channeled into the ground via a conductor. This ensures safety and minimizes the risk of fires and electric shocks.
At the production facilities of NICKOILSERVICE, lighting masts and lightning rods are manufactured from **carbon steel (St3(S245)) and low-alloy structural steel (09G2S)** in the form of coiled sheet metal.
