SPECIFICATIONS

SV5S

Objective

130 mm clear aperture, 910mm focal length apo triplet objective made with Ohara FPL-53 fluoro-phosphate glass, oil spaced and fully multicoated. Broadband coatings designed for visual use as well as photographic and ccd imaging.

Lens mount

Temperature stable, push pull lens cell with front adjustments

Tube

Precision cnc lathe turned 1/8" thick aluminum tube for accuracy, weight reduction and rapid cool down without flexure. Ultra flat black interior with powder coated exterior.

Light baffles

Main tube has three knife edge baffles and the focuser has over 12 reflection reducing ridges to eliminate ghosting and enhance contrast without vignetting.

Tube Dimensions

5.5" diameter, 16 15/16" long.

Dew shield Dimension

6 5/8" diameter X 7 15/16" long.

Retracting Dew shield

Dew shield retracts over main tube. Uses a lock screw with internal compression ring to maintain squareness when extended

Overall Length

21" in airline travel mode*, 28" with dew shield retracted, 36" with dew shield extended

Mounting Rings

Hinged, cnc machined aluminum with rubber grips on each knob, five threaded 1/4-20 holes top and bottom. Holes are 1.5" and 60 mm apart and one is in the center. Brushed, back anodized finish.  

Weight of Telescope without mount or tripod

About 20 pounds.

Optical Performance

True apochromatic performance. The objective provides a wide field, excellent star test and no false color. Rapid cool down time. Extremely high contrast full multi-coatings result in exceptional high contrast performance both visually and photographically.  May be used up to and beyond Dawes limit.

Mechanical Performance

3.5" Feather Touch Focuser provides smooth, back lash free motion with adjustable tension mechanism. Will lift all eyepiece/camera systems commonly employed, will operate with binoviewers without optical correctors and operate in normal single eye mode with provided extension.  The back unthreads and the new Stellarvue full field flatteners thread onto the 3.5" focuser tube. 

Case

CSV5 hard side case. Heavy Duty padded case or Scopeguard case optional.

*The focuser may be easily unthreaded from the main tube for airline travel, shortening the main tube to only 21" (less than airline travel length). This does not affect alignment thanks to our  precision machining and positive lock attachment.  Now you can take your 5" apo refractor "down under" to see the southern skies without worrying about it.
