Baader Planetarium

• A Solar Shade made from Aluminium to clamp between any T-2 connection
• T-2 drilling (ø 42 mm)
• Use as shade (glare protection) for visual observation / imaging through eyepiece or camera
• Used to shade the eyepiece or camera viewing opening from direct solar radiation during photographic- or visual solar observation in the H-alpha region with narrowband filters from SolarSpectrum

• Filter Frame for D-ERF Filter, Diameter 75 - 180 mm
• No serial production - every filter frame will be adapted to your needs and professionally produced on our in-house 3D-printer (70-160 mm) or are CNC machined Aluminium (180 mm)
• Filter frame offers complete safe and firm hold for the delicate D-ERF energy reflection filters
• Only available in combination with Solar Spectrum H-alpha Filters and D-ERF Filters

• M68 changer for Zeiss adapter system
• Hardened steel - no impressions in the mating surfaces of the dovetail may occur even with the greatest burden

• Baader H-alpha Narrowband Filter – Precision Grade
• 6.5 nm FWHM, recommended for optical systems from > f/3.4
• Reflex-Blocker™ hard coated and planeoptically polished – with sealed coating edges (Life-Coat™)
• Blackened edges all around, with filter-lead-side-indicator in the form of a telescope-sided black outer rim
• Optimized for modern CMOS cameras, but likewise excellent for CCD camera technologies

We explicitly warn against observing the sun with a DeepSky 6.5 nm (equivalent to 65 Ångstroem) H-alpha narrowband filter, specialized solar chromosphere and prominence filters from SolarSpectrum start at 0.8 Ångstroem. Photographic experiments with a camera are theoretically possible, but by no means observe the sun with naked eyes – you endanger your eyesight!

• 2" BBHS star diagonal with 2" ClickLock terminal and black case. Provides greatest reflectance over most spectral range from 390 to 2000nm

• Can also be used with other focusers like e. g. FeatherTouch. Adapters for other focusers are in development, but not included in the scope of delivery.
• Contactless Homing Sensor enables precise homing and repeatable ap- proach of saved absolute positions – perfect for remote-observatories.
• Can be controlled either with the powerful SteelGo II software or through the ASCOM driver. Needs Steeldrive II Controller (#2957260 , € 445,-)
• Made in Germany: The housing is CNC-milled from Aluminium in our factory. The electronical boards are made by a German company according to our specifications.

• This M48-spacer ring is necessary for connecting the MPCC Mark III coma corrector at Baader Protective Canon EOS T-Ring
• Use the full aperture of the M48 thread instead of M42 – in conjunction with the Baader protective CANON T-Ring
• This M48 spacer ring is the necessary addition in order to mount the MPCC Mark III directly onto the Baader protective EOS T-ring while securing the correct optical distance of 55mm and by utilizing the full M48 unvignetted aperture

• Baader Wide-T-Ring Nikon Z to connect Nikon Z cameras on the Astro T-2 system and the S52 dovetail
• All Baader Wide-T-rings have an S52 dovetail in addition to the inserted T-2 ring to use adapters to M48, M68 or the UFC filter changer
• The illumination of the camera chips improved significantly, mainly because of the larger clear aperture.
• On the camera side: Nikon Z bayonet
• Telescope side: S52 dovetail clamp incl. S52/T-2 internal thread with 0.75mm pitch

• Baader Stainless steel 3/8″ to 1/4″ Photothread-Reducer
• made of V2A stainless steel
• This photothread-reducer of stainless steel serves to change – for example – the small photothread of your tripod-adapterplate into a large 3/8" thread.

• Baader SLOAN-i' Bandpass Filter, suitable from f/15 to f/1.8
• SLOAN/SDSS (ugriz’) photometric filter with transmission according to SLOAN-specification
• Manufactured with most advanced ion beam coating technology / Daylight-Proof
• Reflex-Blocker™ hard coated and planeoptically polished – with sealed coating edges (Life-Coat™)
• Blackened edges all around, with filter-lead-side-indicator in the form of a telescope-sided black outer rim
• Equally suitable for modern CMOS cameras as well as for older CCD camera technologies

• Focal lengths Fine Tuning for Hyperion eyepieces (all focal lengths)
• Optical path length 28mm
• Spacer rings fit between the negative lens and the 2 "barrel, so that it matches the respective eyepiece to your needs.
• The 13 mm eyepiece transform e.g. no loss of quality in a 9- or 11 mm eyepiece.

• BHP levelling flanges are used to adjust the unevenness of the foundation or the concrete pillar as well as other deviations of the substructure from the perfect north-south alignment. They adjust these imperfections as close as possible to the mount, very precisely and steady, without reducing the stability of the pillar
• Consisting of two solid Steel, separated by six steel bars
• Top plate precision milled flat and threaded to fit the base plate.
• Suitable as a pillar adapter flange to the Baader Heavy Pillar (BHP), modal steel pillar with up to 600 kg payload capacity (available in 60 - 165 cm) (various versions available)
• Overall height: 100 mm
• The Steel Pillar Flange for GM 4000 Mount (#1454090 , € 290,-) is required

• Temperature Control Upgrade for already purchased BACHES Echelle spectrograph. Additionally, the Baches Temperature Control Set incl. EPS Thermo-Cover and Steeldrive Controller (#2458665 , € 1890,-) must be purchased.
• Upgrade includes labor time for retrofit only. Labor time includes: Disassembly of the Baches, and modification of the housing parts to prepare for Baches Temperature Control Set incl. EPS Thermo-Cover and Steeldrive Controller (#2458665 , € 1890,-) . 
• For this we need the BACHES Echelle spectrograph. The Baches will be disassembled, modified, then reassembled and readjusted by us.
• The retrofit work is not necessary if you buy the  BACHES Echelle-Spectrograph (#2458600 , € 9485,-) and the Baches Temperature Control Set incl. EPS Thermo-Cover and Steeldrive Controller (#2458665 , € 1890,-) ex factory.
