WACKER NEUSON LTN6 LIGHTING TOWER
LTN6 LIGHTING TOWER
The Wacker Neuson LTN6 (specifically from the highly reliable LTN6L series) is a commercial-grade, trailer-mounted narrow-body light tower engineered to provide continuous, high-intensity illumination for nighttime construction zones, industrial jobsites, emergency response setups, and outdoor entertainment events. This mobile unit is highly favored for rental fleets because it delivers broad lighting coverage in a highly durable, easily towable package that can withstand harsh outdoor elements.
The machine features a 9-meter (30-foot) vertical mast that can rotate a full 360∘, giving operators precision control over light placement. It comes equipped with four high-efficiency metal halide floodlights (or modern LED retrofits depending on production year) supported by a heavy-duty, wind-resistant mechanical winch setup.
Driven by a dependable, low-vibration 3-cylinder Kohler or Kubota liquid-cooled diesel engine, the LTN6 operates at an incredibly quiet decibel rating, making it ideal for noise-sensitive urban settings. Additionally, its high-capacity internal fuel cell allows the unit to run continuously for up to 60+ hours without refueling, while its oversized generator housing doubles as a standalone jobsite auxiliary power source.
