TTL output encoder with internal 50x multiplier provides 1.3 μrad resolution in AZ and 2.0 μrad resolution in EL


Stage Construction Options


/VAC3              Vacuum preparation of stage to 10-3 torr

/VAC6              Vacuum preparation of stage to 10-6 torr

Contact Factory for Custom Options Available


Optional mirror face aligned to rotation axes — the mirror cell may be offset so the mirror face is at the AZ/EL intersection as a special order system; additional counterbalance weight may be needed for this configuration; please consult factory for details


External cable CMS; larger clear aperture available through AZ; limited AZ travel


Limit switches and hard stops available


Slip ring for customer signals and power
