Lighting maintenance without leaving the ground

Make your job safer, faster and easier with V-Spring telescoping safety light poles from Eaton Crouse-Hinds.

Designed for safety

Whether it’s a new installation or a replacement project, lighting maintenance tasks can be dangerous, labour-intensive and costly – especially in hard to reach or areas where safety is a big concern.

V-Spring poles eliminate the need for portable ladders or fall protection equipment, making working on lighting a safe, single-person operation where both feet can remain on the ground.

Ideal for fixtures installed on industrial walkways, platforms, stairways and conveyors in hazardous or industrial applications where OSHA/HSE regulations require fall prevention equipment.

Any-time flexibility

With an adjustable height of 5 ft up to 10 ft and full 360°, V-Spring poles offer full rotation and height adjustment after installation for effortless positioning and re-positioning of light.

The spring assisted movement requires less force so removes worker-strain and with no pinch points, operators will have added protection for hands and fingers.

The vertical travel of the V-Spring also ensures the luminaire housing will not fall from the mounting module hinge hook. This allows the luminaire housing to properly hang during installation and maintenance with no risk of dropped or falling ballasts.
