With every mount, the bearing clearance is checked and adjusted!
 

CGE Pro - the strongest GoTo mount from Celestron with over 40,000 fixed objects stored in the database. The mount has been completely redeveloped and offers many advantages, especially for astrophotography.

Product features:

Higher rigidity for maximum load ... the mount can be loaded with equipment up to 45kg dead weight. For example, a C-14 can also be used in astrophotography.

Innovative arrangement without Polarstern ... important for use on the road, they only need a few bright stars in the sky and not even the clear view of the Polarstern. Nevertheless, the optimal Einnordung succeeds.

Fine adjustment of pole height and azimuth without tools ... generously dimensioned grip screws allow sensitive adjustment and secure clamping without tools - even with gloves.

Usable up to 20 ° over the meridian ... for undisturbed astrophotography without interruption due to annoying turning over of the mount.

Object setting at 5 ° per second ... for quick and yet quiet setting of the target objects.

Precise Object Adjustment - Accuracy of only 5 arc minutes ... with just one simple alignment you can achieve a setting accuracy of about 5 arc minutes. Additional tools in the menu allow you to set even less than a minute, which is sufficient even for very small chips.

Accurate tracking ... the CGE Pro provides accurate tracking with very slow occurrence of the periodic error. Every autoguider can make up for this mistake well. The error can be further reduced by electronically reducing the screw error.

Transportability ... The CGE Pro can be easily disassembled into three smaller easy-to-transport parts, superior to the typical fork mount. Thus, the CGE Pro is well suited not only for observatories, but also for use on the road.

- pole block ... 7,8kg
- RA axle ... 11,7kg
- Dek axle ... 13,5kg

The individual parts are assembled within a few minutes. So ideal for transport and fast deployment.

General mounting data:

- Computer controlled parallactic mount
- Massive stainless steel tripod height adjustable from 96cm to 140cm with good rigidity
- A counterweight with about 9kg
- Total weight about 69kg (tripod with mount)
- Exact worm wheels in both axes (255 teeth)
- RA and declination clamping via 4 clamps each
- Applicable from 10 ° to 65 ° width

Data of the electronics:

- Proven Nexstar computer technology
- 40,000 objects - over 100 user-defined objects and over 200 objects with extended information
- New nomenclature menu without North Star and Northern Hemisphere Polarstern
- 12V servo motors - quiet and powerful
- All common interfaces (RS232, Autoguider ...)
- NexRemote telescope control software - for mounting control via the computer

Connections of accessories:

All connections are housed in the base under the mount and thus allow a comfortable operation. In addition, the column attachment also prevents the impact of long-lasting devices on one of the tripod legs.

Connection of GPS:

Here you can also connect a GPS module, which makes sense if you use the mount very often in different places.

Clamping of the telescopes:

The CGE Pro has the proven 3 "Clamping (Losmandy Level) we offer a wealth of accessories for this clamp.

- double attachment (for main pipe and draft tube)
- prism rails for different telescopes
- Reduction to the smaller Vixen level
