NOMAD 4

Solar Street-Lighting Tower

The Green Frog Systems NOMAD 4 solar street-lighting tower is a re-deployable solar street light for road construction, mining and civil infrastructure. Choose one or two high-output road-optic LED luminaires at an 11.5 m mounting height, supported by a 1 kW rotating solar array and 10 kWh LiFePO4 battery.

No concrete footings, no grid connection, no fuel. The base is placed by forklift; pole erection requires a crane or lifting device.

Description

NOMAD 4 solar street lighting tower

The NOMAD 4 is a redeployable solar street light for road construction, mining and civil infrastructure. One or two road optic LED luminaires mount at 11.5 m, powered by a 1 kW rotating solar array and 10 kWh LiFePO4 battery, with no concrete footings, grid connection or fuel.

It is designed for AS/NZS 1158 Category V road lighting, with a lighting design and site report included in each proposal. The KX1000 controller scales power automatically through extended overcast weather, and satellite connectivity allows remote monitoring where there is no mobile coverage. An optional second 10 kWh battery can run cameras, sensors and telemetry.

The base is placed by forklift and filled with local ballast to schedule, and the pole is erected with a crane or lifting device. It suits staged road works, detours, haul road intersections, mining camps, ports, rail corridors and remote sites, and moves with the project. The base and mast carry a 10 year structural warranty, and the lighting and power system a 5 year complete unit warranty.

Key Features

Road lighting design. AS/NZS 1158 Category V, with luminaires at 11.5 m.

Single or dual arm. 4-1000-A carries one 150 W luminaire on a 4.0 m arm; 4-1000-B carries two 150 W luminaires on two 3.0 m arms, 6.0 m tip to tip.

No concrete footings. Sand, aggregate or ore based ballast to schedule, with no footing to demolish.

Moves with the project. Forklift pockets in the base; a crane is needed to erect and lower the pole.

1 kW rotating array. Two 500 W panels on a rotating T piece, turned north after placement.

10 kWh battery. LiFePO4 as standard, with an optional second 10 kWh battery for cameras, sensors and telemetry.

KX1000 controller. Automatic power scaling during extended overcast weather.

Satellite connectivity. Remote monitoring and control with no mobile coverage needed.

Site specific power plan. A site report with every proposal, checked against the worst month.

Clean and quiet. No fuel, refuelling visits or grid connection.

Engineered structure. Hot dip galvanised steel to AS/NZS 1170.2, with the wind region and terrain category set in the ballast schedule.

FAQ

Which NOMAD do I need?

The NOMAD 1 suits pathways, gates and general area lighting, the NOMAD 2 lights large work areas and powers site equipment, and the NOMAD 4 is a street light for roadworks and intersections. Green Frog Systems provides a free site report to confirm the right model.

Is the NOMAD 4 compliant for road lighting?

It is designed for AS/NZS 1158 Category V road lighting, with lighting designs and site reports provided with each proposal.

What is the difference between the single and dual arm models?

The 4-1000-A has one 150 W luminaire on a 4.0 m arm. The 4-1000-B has two 150 W luminaires (300 W) on two 3.0 m arms, 6.0 m tip to tip. Both mount at 11.5 m.

How long does the NOMAD 4 run without sun?

The zero sun reserve is engineered for each site from 20 years of NASA solar data and provided in writing. Figures are estimates, not a guarantee.

Does the NOMAD 4 need a crane?

The base is placed by forklift, but the pole needs a crane or lifting device to erect and lower it at each installation.

How do you move a NOMAD 4 between work zones?

Empty the ballast, lower the pole by crane and fork the base out, then re-ballast and re-erect at the next site. There is no footing to demolish.

Can I monitor a fleet of NOMAD 4 towers remotely?

Yes. Satellite connectivity gives remote monitoring and control with no mobile coverage needed.

Can the NOMAD 4 power other site equipment?

Yes. An optional second 10 kWh battery runs cameras, sensors and telemetry.
