every Baader TFS comes with the TFS controller. This controller includes a web interface which makes it easy for the customer to open and close the flaps from the existing PC web browser.
Please Note: The mounting ring and the flap are customised according to the size of the OTA cover. These data must be defined in advance.

Important note:

The TFS will be produced on request. Please contact us by mail if you are interested.

The Baader Telescope Flap System (TFS) is a single or double flap system for refractor or mirror telescope systems. It's main purpose is to close the tube at the front end to prevent the telescope from getting dusty and dirty inside. It also prevents night dedicated telescopes with CCD Sensors on bigger telescope systems with many instruments for day and night observation from receiving sunlight while sun observation is in process. It can even carry filters or Baader AstroSolar® film if needed.

Every Baader TFS comes with the TFS controller. This controller includes a web interface which makes it easy for the customer to open and close the flaps from the existing PC web browser. If no PC is present or needed, the simple Keypad can be used in addition.

As the Baader TFS is web-interface based and does not need any installation, it can run under every operating system with a web browser (Firefox) installed. Using software tools allows to script the commands to fit our flaps into the existing work flow of your observatory.
