Isometric Technical Drawing • AutoCAD Compatible
Engineered for Grid Reliability
With 23 years of manufacturing excellence and a workforce of 1,000 skilled technicians, Xytower delivers transmission infrastructure engineered to meet the demanding specifications of China Southern Power Grid and international standards. Our 220kV-500kV lattice towers are manufactured using Q345B/Q420B high-strength structural steel with complete hot-dip galvanization per ASTM A123/ISO 1461 standards.
Designed for rapid field assembly, our bolted connection systems eliminate on-site welding requirements while ensuring structural integrity. The modular design enables efficient containerized shipping to overseas markets, reducing logistics costs for Southeast Asian grid projects in Malaysia, Myanmar, and Thailand.
- Triple-layer anti-corrosion protection for tropical climates
- Pre-drilled precision manufacturing (±2mm tolerance)
- Seismic Zone IV compliant (0.4g acceleration)
- Wind load resistance: 45m/s (100 mph) basic wind speed
