2″-24 TPI Male to SecureFit

• The Hedrick focuser designed by PlaneWave is a heavy duty no-slip focuser capable of handling an imaging payload of up to 20lbs.
• Occupies 3″ of backfocus with the focuser fully racked in, and 4.2″ when fully racked out.
• Focuser travel range of 30mm (30000 microns/1.2″)
• The focus tube runs on 5 bearings and is driven by a leadscrew so there is no chance of slipping.
• Focus may be automated through a computer using PlaneWave’s EFA Kit and PWI3 software.
• The focuser comes with pre-installed motor that can be controlled with the EFA hand controller or PWI3 software.

Now, one person can easily balance a CDK on the L-Series mounts using the Ascend accessory! The Ascend can attach to either the front or rear of the #200919 Dovetail Clamp and precisely slide the CDK forward or back for accurate balance. Ascend uses a long pushrod to safely balance in the mount’s declination/altitude axis with the turn of a bolt.

This 2.75-2″ visual adapter slides into the Hedrick Focuser that comes standard on the CDK12.5.

• The adapter steps the 2.75″ opening down to 2″ for standard 2″ accessories.
• The adapter also adds some additional spacing to optimize the use of a 2″ diagonal so focus is reached with most eyepieces.
