PRODUCT STATUS: Standard product architecture with model-specific engineering confirmation

1. Product Introduction & Positioning

Columus MH2000SP is a 2000 W metal-halide inflatable light tower designed for broad 360-degree temporary area lighting. It combines a portable inflatable column with a mature HID light engine and is aimed at industrial, construction, infrastructure and emergency work where strong output and proven lamp technology are more important than instant hot restart.

Series positioning: SP - Standard Pro (Professional / upper-standard). The tower uses premium translucent flame-retardant, uv-resistant composite envelope and is intended for industrial night work, emergency response, rescue, infrastructure, mining, ports, airports, professional event support and film/TV support zones. This model should be selected from required illuminance, work-zone size, tower height, power source, restart behavior, color/flicker needs and environmental conditions rather than lamp wattage alone.

Outdoor / wind / IP	Outdoor weather-resistant construction. Exact declared IP rating and wind limit must be confirmed for the approved model, electrical package and anchoring method.

4. Lighting Performance & Application Boundary

For project planning, MH2000SP is estimated to provide a maximum low-level illumination footprint of approximately 20,500 m² at the 1-lux boundary and approximately 4,100 m² at 10 lux. For general orientation, emergency staging and broad work-zone lighting, a more practical 10-20 lux planning range is approximately 2,050-4,100 m². Applications requiring 50-100 lux or more will cover a much smaller area and should be checked with a project-specific lux layout.

Application boundary: Not preferred where immediate hot restart, very frequent switching or camera-oriented flicker performance is the primary requirement.

Recommended Applications

· Construction and roadwork

· Industrial maintenance and shutdown work

· Mining, ports, airports and rail operations

· Fire/rescue staging where immediate hot restart is not essential

Representative Application Cases

Case 1. Large industrial yard or open work zone requiring high-output temporary area illumination.

Case 2. Major infrastructure or mining project where one portable tower must cover a broad operating zone.

Case 3. Remote generator-powered night work where maximum output is prioritized over instant hot restart.

Cases above are representative application scenarios for positioning and selection. They are not claims of a named customer installation unless supported by a separately approved project reference.

5. Customer Value & Selection Guidance

· Mature high-output HID platform

· Strong cost/output ratio at medium and high power

· Simple industrial operating logic

· Broad 360° diffused illumination

Choose MH2000SP when its metal halide behavior, 2000 W output class and SP series positioning match the project priorities. If the customer needs different restart behavior, control sophistication, budget level or tower material, compare related Columus models rather than increasing wattage alone.

6. Customization & OEM/ODM Options

· Tower height: 2.0 / 2.5 / 3.0 / 4.0 / 5.0 m project options; 3.0 m and 4.0 m are the most common family configurations.

· Envelope color, logo printing and project identification graphics, subject to material and print-process suitability.

· Input voltage, plug type, cable length, connector arrangement and generator interface for the target market.

· Light-source package: ~4200 K typical; color rendering options follow the selected lamp/LED package.

· Protective transport packaging: reinforced export carton, plywood case or reusable flight case depending on project and shipping mode.

· Guy ropes, pegs, sandbags/ballast points, spare envelope, spare electrical parts and extension cables can be supplied as project accessories.

· Magnetic ballast as the conventional standard; electronic ballast can be specified for steadier / lower-flicker operation.

Customization is subject to engineering review, component availability, certification scope and final quotation. Drawings, control architecture, logo artwork and special packing may require approval before production.

7. Product Size, Packing & Shipping
Non-working / collapsed product size	55 x 45 x 45 cm
Working size	Approx. 40 x 40 x selected tower height; reference 4 m working size approx. 40 x 40 x 400 cm
Reference export packing size	66 x 56 x 56 cm
Reference net weight	47-55 kg
Reference packed weight	62-72 kg
Standard protective packing	Protective internal foam/wrapping plus reinforced export packing. Professional orders may use plywood or reusable flight case.

Packing dimensions and weight are logistics planning references only. Final packing size, number of packages, net/gross weight and case type must be reconfirmed before shipment because tower height, ballast/driver, lamp head, cable length, battery option and accessories can change the final package.

Shipping Options

· Air freight for samples, urgent project deliveries or small quantities.

· Sea freight by LCL or FCL for project quantities and cost-sensitive international delivery.

· Road / rail freight where destination and trade route allow.

· Door-to-door logistics can be arranged subject to destination, Incoterm, consignee information and local import conditions.

· Express courier is generally reserved for spare parts, lamps, drivers, controls and small accessories rather than complete large light-tower cases.

10. FAQ

Which tower height should I choose?

The family supports 2.0-5.0 m project heights. For MH2000SP, the normal recommendation is 4.0-5.0 m. Final height should be selected from required lux, coverage, wind exposure and transport limits.

How large an area can it illuminate?

The planning reference is up to about 20,500 m² at the very low 1-lux boundary and about 4,100 m² at 10 lux. A more practical 10-20 lux working-zone planning range is about 2,050-4,100 m². Higher task-light levels reduce the effective area substantially.

Can it run from batteries?

Not as the standard recommendation. AC mains or generator power is normally preferred at this power level.

Is the light flicker-free?

Magnetic ballast versions may show mains-frequency flicker. Electronic-ballast versions can provide steadier / lower-flicker output; camera use requires project confirmation.

Can CCT and CRI be customized?

~4200 K typical. Typically Ra 65-80, lamp-dependent; higher-CRI lamp packages can be evaluated Final availability depends on the selected lamp/LED package.

Is it waterproof and wind resistant?

The system is designed for outdoor temporary use, but the exact IP declaration and permitted wind speed must be confirmed for the approved electrical package, tower height, base and guy-line/anchoring method. Do not treat a legacy value as universal across all 2026 models.

Can our logo be printed on the tower?

Yes. Logo, project identity and selected graphics can be applied to compatible envelope materials. Artwork and print area are confirmed before production.

What are the warranty and lead time?

Reference warranty is 12 months against manufacturing defects from shipment, subject to final quotation/sales contract and exclusions for consumables, lamps, batteries and misuse. Typically 15-25 working days for standard confirmed configurations; customized versions typically 20-35 working days.
