The safer way to plow. Avoid costly property and plow damage. Reduce downtime.

The System

The GL3000PMC Guidance laser uses an “ultra-bright” green laser spot to establish wing plow trailing edge location before you get there.

The laser spot impacts on the road/snow surface ahead of the truck and shows the driver where the wing plow trailing edge will be. The laser reference spot is on the road and in the driver’s normal field of view.

The GL3000PMC laser is electronically designed for cold weather operation. This laser is coupled to a special heat source for the exit window to reduce or eliminate ice build-up on the front of the laser output lens. The GL3000PMC also has a unique pneumatic snow removal system incorporated with the laser housing that automatically fires a blast of air at the front of the laser lens every 5 seconds. This removes snow build-up front the laser output lens.

The GL3000PMC is a class IIIA ultra bright green laser with 5mW of power. Green is most visible to the eye in all working conditions. The GL3000PMC laser is CFR21-1040 compliant and meets all federal and OSHA standards for operation.

The laser housing is weatherproof, hermetically sealed, and dry nitrogen charged for operation in virtually any weather condition.

The systems work directly off the 12 volt side of truck, and will operate from 11 to 15 volts DC with positive or negative ground.
