BALLOON ENVELOPE

The fan motor (blower) that inflates the balloon also acts as a cooling function. If the fan motor shouldbreak, Balloon alarm buzzer installed acts as a safety device. It will sound during normal operation if theballoon attempts to make contact with the lamp’s hot! surface. If this condition occurs, immediately placethe GloBug’s ON/OFF switch in the OFF position.

Expendable parts such as balloon envelope and lamp can be quickly replaced without any tools and withless effort. Adjusting angle of the balloon, that is to change the illumination area, and storing balloon areoperated easily.

The fabric made of a special material is very resistant to heat. As the test results show below, the fabricdoes not melt with any temperature at each part.

As a material of the balloon envelope of GloBugTM series, the most suitable fabric, is well diffusive, durableand heatproof, is selected. Maintenance to the balloon envelope is possible, making it last for a long time.

Common dirt such as mud will come out in washing machines. Detach the envelope from the balloon andput it in a laundry bag. You can wash it readily with most neutral detergent. In the case of greasy dirt, wipeoff the dirt using grease and oil cleaning sprays and wash it in a washing machines.

GloBugTM Lighting System gives enough light to awork area but eyes are never blinded by glareeven if seeing the light directly. It is gentle tosurrounding traffic.

■ WIDE COVERAGE RANGE WITH HOMOGENEOUS LIGHTINGCompared to Traditional Spotlight towers that concentrate the light to a fixed direction, GloBugTM seriescan radiate the homogeneous light far and wide from the balloon to all directions.

■ 360°ILLUMINATION WITHOUT BLIND SPOTComing from the whole balloon, the light reaches over 360degrees and to a long distance homogeneously. Illuminatingfixed direction or close to residential area, you can use areflector balloon.

Facing back light, you cannot seeconditions of the road behind the light.

As the balloon illuminates the wholearea of the site, you can see conditionsbeyond the site. So it is safe.

with Balloon light competitor

Compared to traditional 1000W x 4 class of light tower (Spotlight type), GloBugTM series can illuminate a largearea with more homogeneous light, even though the required power is the quarter at only 1000W. You canilluminate with safer and non-glare light at low cost since GloBugTM series eats much less fuel than 4000Wclass of light towers do. The followings is a comparison between Traditional light tower & GloBugTM "Cart type -GB114BC".

Compared to competitors's balloon lighting system such as Ingersoll Rand Balloon Light "BL2000" the light ofGloBugTM series reaches further. For example, when BL2000 illuminates 15,000 sqft., GloBugTM “Cart type -GB114BC" can illuminate 30,000 spft. with the same brightness.

The fan motor (blower) that inflates the balloon also provides a cooling function. Should the fan motor stop working, an audible alarm alerts the crew to the problem.

Washing — The balloon is easily removed by unzipping it from the base.It can be hand washed or machine washed, in a laundry bag with a neurtral detergent. Grease or oil stains should can be cleaned with cleaning sprays.

Replacement Balloons — Should the balloon require replacement it can be done quickly and without any tools. Balloons can be easily removed for storage; an integral protective cover is provided.

Balloon MaterialThe GloBug ballons are fabricated from material that is durable, heat resistant, and easy to maintain.

Heatproof Balloon — The heat resistant fabric is tested to make sure it does not melt, should it come into contact with any part of the light fixture.

The fabric made of a special material is very resistant to heat. As the test results show below, the fabricdoes not melt with any temperature at each part.

As a material of the balloon envelope of GloBugTM series, the most suitable fabric, is well diffusive, durableand heatproof, is selected. Maintenance to the balloon envelope is possible, making it last for a long time.

Common dirt such as mud will come out in washing machines. Detach the envelope from the balloon andput it in a laundry bag. You can wash it readily with most neutral detergent. In the case of greasy dirt, wipeoff the dirt using grease and oil cleaning sprays and wash it in a washing machines.

GloBugTM Lighting System gives enough light to awork area but eyes are never blinded by glareeven if seeing the light directly. It is gentle tosurrounding traffic.

■ WIDE COVERAGE RANGE WITH HOMOGENEOUS LIGHTINGCompared to Traditional Spotlight towers that concentrate the light to a fixed direction, GloBugTM seriescan radiate the homogeneous light far and wide from the balloon to all directions.

■ 360°ILLUMINATION WITHOUT BLIND SPOTComing from the whole balloon, the light reaches over 360degrees and to a long distance homogeneously. Illuminatingfixed direction or close to residential area, you can use areflector balloon.

Facing back light, you cannot seeconditions of the road behind the light.

As the balloon illuminates the wholearea of the site, you can see conditionsbeyond the site. So it is safe.

with Balloon light competitor

Compared to traditional 1000W x 4 class of light tower (Spotlight type), GloBugTM series can illuminate a largearea with more homogeneous light, even though the required power is the quarter at only 1000W. You canilluminate with safer and non-glare light at low cost since GloBugTM series eats much less fuel than 4000Wclass of light towers do. The followings is a comparison between Traditional light tower & GloBugTM "Cart type -GB114BC".

Compared to competitors's balloon lighting system such as Ingersoll Rand Balloon Light "BL2000" the light ofGloBugTM series reaches further. For example, when BL2000 illuminates 15,000 sqft., GloBugTM “Cart type -GB114BC" can illuminate 30,000 spft. with the same brightness.
