CCT-16
STANDARD OPTICS:
Our typical 0.4M Classical Cassegrain has an F/3 primary
mirror with an effective focal ratio between F/8 or F/12.
The 76mm field is fully shielded and unvignetted.
Focal plane position is between 0 to 20cm from instrument
mounting surface
Finderscope: 9x60 with illuminated reticle
OPTIONS:
Invar spacers available to compensate for temperature
and maintain focus
Commercially available optical tube assemblies can
also be mounted
TELESCOPE MOUNT:
15 in. diameter friction drives in RA and DEC
Aluminum mirror cell with four, 12-bolt patterns
Tracking accuracy: +/- 2.0 arc seconds in 2 minutes,
+/- 20.0 arc seconds in 1 hour
Pointing accuracy (with refraction and alignment correction)
better than 30 arc seconds RMS
Optical incremental position encoder drives are independent
of the motor drives to provide excellent pointing
Supports 20 kg instrument load with CG 18cm behind
mounting surface
