Product information

The Altair Electronic Filter Wheel EFW holds 7x 2" astronomy filters and is driven by a precision stepper motor with accurate positioning system.

Only 20mm thick! Note: Baader filters will not fit because they are too tall. Altair and most other filters fit perfectly. (Baader filters can be rehoused in blank cells to fit).
USB Power - only one cable required for data and power!
CNC machined from a single piece of aluminium. A light trap machined into halves to stop stray light entering the filter wheel housing. Motor is not exposed therefore light cannot enter through the gap between motor and housing.
Supports interchangeable carousels amongst Altair XL size filter wheels.
7x36mm filter wheel and carousel include the required filter masks and screws to capture and hold 36mm unmounted filters precisely.
Includes a set of adaptors and spacers enabling out of the box use with most astro cameras including the Altair Hypercam.
Fits Altair Hypercam TEC tilt adjuster directly with screws, enabling a flush fit and 17.5mm spacing.
M54 threads on the filter wheel body and screw holes for rigid connection. (See diagram).
Included set of adaptors enabling connection to reducers and field flatteners with M48 or T2 male rear thread, with the required standard 55mm spacing to sensor.
Includes screws and screwdriver, plus USB cable to get you started straight away.
Please see the associated product images for fitment instructions and adaptor setup.
Supported by all good astronomy capture software, such as SharpCap, NINA, APT, etc. Requires the Altair ACOM driver to work, which is downloaded at www.altairastro.help. Please note: You need to create a username to download the file.
