# 2458559
€ 323.00 Price excl. German VAT tax (19%): € 271.43- Blaze Reflection Gratings 1200 L/mm
- cemented onto Tilting grating holder
- For high resolution observations where the 900 and 1200 gratings are used, Dados (by construction) is expected to provide the best optical performances in a short spectral range (30 nm).
- It needs to be pointed out to any prospective user up front that the 1200L grating has been addded later on some customers insisting demand, for projects that concentrate mainly on the H-alpha region – to attain max resolution there. The 1200L grating however cannot show the full spectrum and the tilting range is limited to H-alpha mainly. In case this restriction is not acceptable, this grating ought not to be part of an order.
