OTG-CX6934 100ft Pneumatic Telescopic Towers

The OTG-CX6934 100 ft Pneumatic telescopic mast is a versatile system constructed of lightweight aluminum and aluminum extrusions, entirely anodized and corrosion restistant hardware.

The relative ease of operation and maintenance makes this an ideal choice for any application requiring extended height up to 100 ft providing increased line of sight for some communications platform. As a standard feature on all of our tower offerings it can be incrementally adjustable to any height to full extension.

In the harshest environment this tower is capable of withstanding (-)65 °F to (+)212 °F. and the internal grease can operate in temperatures from (-) 40 ° F to (+)284 ° F. Towers can withstand a minimum of 10,000 cycles under normal operating conditions without requiring additional lubrication.

Each mast section is equipped with an internal groove for a "Key Way" design to prevent rotation and damge to mastsections in extreme wind or in the event the mast is extended into an obstruction.

Attention to details for operational and environment placement were given much consideration. At the base of the tower is equipped with a ball-joint mounting plate to facilitate installation on uneven ground. Additionally, the base is also equipped with an integral air safety valve for over pressure release, condenstaion drainage, and emergency lowering of the tower. Drainage holes are provided in each section to allow for automatic moisture drainage. Intergrated into each tower is a shock absorption system to allow for retraction of tower without damaging sensitive equipment. At the top the tower is was designed with a female mounting connection with locking mechanism to enable quick connect/disconnect of top payload.

The tower is capable of 360° rotation at the base using a mechanical turning handle.
