TS-Optics Screw Adapter for Baader MPCC Coma Corrector to Skywatcher

With this screw adapter, you can use the Baader MPCC coma corrector without tilting on 2" focusers from Skywatcher.

♦ Connection at the telescope side: M54x1 external thread - fits to the internal thread of the Skywatcher focuser.

♦ M48x0.75 female thread - suitable for the Baader MPCC  coma corrector

♦ Camera attachment via T2 male thread of the MPCC  - the working distances of the correctors of 55 mm are maintained.

♦ Also fits the TSKomakorr, but then it only has a working distance of 54 mm.

♦ Due to the continuous screw connection, there is no risk of tilting.

 

TS Screw Adapter for Baader Corrector on Skywatcher Newtonians

The Baader MPCC coma corrector are widely used among astrophotographers. With this adapter, you can optimally connect the coma corrector to your Skywatcher Newtonian - without fear of tilting or distortion, absolutely safe and, above all, with very short paths. The corrector disappears completely in the extension tube. Only the connection thread on the camera side protrudes from the adapter. The distances from the camera thread of 55 mm are retained even with the adapter.

The tssw-mpcc also fits the TSKomakorr, but then the latter only has a working distance of 54 mm.
 

Connecting the corrector to the Newtonian with the adapter:

♦ The coma corrector is screwed into the M48 female thread of the TS adapter.
♦ The adapter is screwed with the coma corrector into the M54x1 thread of the focuser.
♦ Afterwards, the camera can be connected via the matching adapters as before.
 

The adapter is suitable for the following telescopes:

The adapter is suitable for all Skywatcher Newtonian and Dobsonian telescopes equipped with a 2" Crayford focuser. The connection thread of the focuser tube is a M54x1 female thread. When adapting to other focusers, please note the pitch. Many focusers have an M54x0.75 female thread.
 

The advantages of a threaded solution:

♦ With the normal 2" Skywatcher adapter, three screws press on the 2" barrel of the coma corrector. Due to the locking groove of the corrector, tilting can easily occur. Blurred stars in the corners are the result. A screwed solution prevents this.

♦ The metal screws slightly scratch the body of the coma corrector, and may even distort the lenses if too much contact pressure is created. A screw mount, on the other hand, does not exert any pressure on the corrector.

♦ With a screw connection, a 100% fit on the optical axis is always guaranteed.

♦ With a plug-in solution, the unit can also fall out of the 2" receptacle of the focuser at times when the screws become loose. This cannot happen with a threaded solution.
