Pre-border checkpoint
Solar highmast lighting delivering a high-performance and reliable solution
We have supplied the solar highmast lighting solution for a police pre-border checkpoint close to Musina in the Limpopo Province on the N1 highway to and from the Beitbridge Border Post between South Africa and Zimbabwe.
The Beitbridge Border Post is a key crossing between the two countries and a vital trade route, known for its high traffic volumes as the busiest road border post in Southern Africa.
Two masts fitted with our SOLARFLOOD PREMIUM solar highmast lighting solutions have been installed at a strategic pre-border checkpoint where law enforcement officials conduct random vehicle inspections. Due to the remote nature of the site, previously installed infrastructure was frequently vandalised, making a vandal-resistant, solar-powered solution the most practical and reliable choice.
Each SOLARFLOOD PREMIUM system is equipped with its own remote telemanagement node, enabling individual monitoring and management of every luminaire, solar panel and LiFePO4 battery. All performance data is cloud-based and can be accessed from anywhere in the world.

About the SOLARFLOOD
The SOLARFLOOD PREMIUM is a South African designed and manufactured high performance solar highmast lighting solution developed for outdoor open areas and rural applications requiring well-lit solutions, offering a high-performance and robust option for off-grid lighting requirements.
With a high Ingress Protection rating (IP66) and the ability to withstand elevated ambient temperatures, the SOLARFLOOD PREMIUM delivers a reliable and durable lighting solution. Its sustainable off-grid design, combined with a superior lumen-per-watt ratio and high-performance optics, allows for mounting heights of up to 20m, ensuring quality illumination exactly where it is needed.
Photovoltaic energy conversion is optimised through the use of highly efficient monocrystalline solar modules. Together with a Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) charging system and advanced lithium energy storage technology, this creates a state-of-the-art system that provides the required autonomy and a long-lasting solution capable of operating in harsh environmental conditions.
About Us
We develop and manufacture energy-efficient LED lighting products in South Africa, designed and suitable for local conditions.
We are very proud to be associated with BCB Solutions and SANRAL in providing a successful solar lighting solution for this project.
