CU Phosco P213 High mast
7 x 400w SON lanterns mounted in a CU Phosco P213 high-mast lantern. Bit dirty after several decades out in the elements.
4 P220/2 "downlights" and 3 FL300 flood lanterns. The photocell is on the outreach arm.
The circular canisters visible on top of the steel cradle are the WB503 control gearboxes for each lantern.
Although the lanterns are 240v, the load is split between 3 phases.
One of these with 10 lanterns weighs in at a whopping 203kg!!!

Located and the end of the M62 motorway in Liverpool, England.

Man that saddens me. As crazy as it sounds some one needs to save one of these. Or the canopy, cradle and mounting At least.
FrontSideBus   [10 Apr, 2019 at 05:43 PM]
The canopy is 50kg so good luck with that lol.

Anyone know how the lanterns and gear trays are actually attatched to the cradles? Some of the galleries ones were missing lanterns from the cradles towards the end , i thought maybe they had broke off and fell?
