Dynon Freight Terminal

Capital Works

The level of yard lighting at this vital freight terminal was found to be well below the required standard, reducing both site safety and productivity around the yard. Providing a design solution to improve the lighting produced from these 35 metre high towers presented a number of challenges, particularly considering the large footprint and constantly busy nature of the site.

Coolon partnered with JNJ Electrics to provide a high efficiency maintenance free design solution using 36x 480w Industrial rated LED Flood Lights to replace the existing 48x 1000w HPS fittings. JNJ worked closely with Victrack to co-ordinate a suitable installation window and a strict timeline and works program was created to ensure the works rolled out according to plan. The JNJ team brought in a massive 55m boom lift to replace the fittings and a closely co-ordinated effort with the Coolon team ensured that the results accurately reflected the design. Once the commissioning phase had been completed, and measurements were taken across the site, it was confirmed that there was an average increase in light levels of over 400% and a reduction in annual operational costs of 82%. Both Victrack and the site tenant were amazed by the difference this lighting solution had provided to the site and greatly appreciated the results that both Coolon & JNJ Electrics was able to produce with minimal disruption to regular site activities.
