LUNT multi-purpose solar and night sky telescope LS100MT/B1800R APO

LUNT multi-purpose solar and night sky telescope LS100MT/B1800R APO


Telescope specifically for observing the Sun

Also for observing the night sky, modular design

3-lens ED refractor FPL-53, 100 mm aperture, focal length 714 mm

Observation and photography with excellent image quality

Bandwidth less than 0.7 Angstrom

Large B1800 blocking filter on the zenith mirror

Solid R&P focuser with 10:1 reduction

Also for solar Ca-K and solar white light observation

Absolutely safe, no danger to eyes

Multi-purpose telescope of modular design for both H-alpha wavelength solar observation and night sky. Easy conversion between applications in a few simple steps. 3-lens apochromatic telescope with FPL-53 glass, 100 mm aperture and 714 mm focal length: excellent image quality for H-alpha solar observation and also for observing the starry night sky.

With an innovative air pressure adjustment system, a good 2-inch (50.8 mm) R&P focuser and B1800 blocking filter.

H-alpha solar observing:

The LS100MT/B1800 is a complete telescope for sun observing in H-alpha light, with 60 mm free aperture (no central obstruction) and 420 mm focal length. The H-alpha wavelength is the most impressive way to observe the sun, showing bumps on the edge of the sun, filaments and flares on the surface, and much more. An internal Etalon filter achieves a bandwidth of

Fine tuning is achieved with a 2-inch R&P solid focuser with 10:1 reduction.

The locking filter is the B1800. The B1800 is very good for visual solar observation. It is also possible to obtain solar images using cameras with a small sensor chip. We recommend an LS100MT with B3400 blocking filter when using cameras with large CCD chips. The diagonal, on which the T2 or B1800 blocking filter is installed, is equipped as standard with 1.25" eyepieces and a T2 ring for camera connection. Observing the starry night sky:

The H-alpha Etalon system can be disassembled from the telescope in just a few steps thanks to its modular design. With the additionally available conversion kit (item number 0551430), the 3-lens ED Apo refractor can be used as a normal telescope with an aperture of 80 mm and a focal length of 560 mm for observation and photography of the night sky. The triple objective FPL-53 offers exceptionally low color aberration imaging. Common 2-inch star diagonals can be used on the high quality R&P focuser in conversion kit 0551430. Remember that the optionally available 0551430 conversion kit 0551430 is absolutely necessary if the telescope is used at night. More applications:

With the additional accessories available, the LS100MT offers even more possibilities - Double stack

The LS100MT telescope can be optionally extended with the additionally available DSII/SFPT double stack module (article number 0551395). The DSII system is an internal double stack module. This provides a bandwidth of

- Solar observation in white light

If the H-alpha unit has been removed, you can of course use a solar filter that is installed in front of the objective, or a Herschel wedge in the focus system to observe sunspots in white light. - Solar observation at Ca-K wavelength Of course, Lunt Solar Systems' Ca-K filter modules can also be used in the LS100MT to observe and photograph supergranulation and other visible effects at this wavelength of the sun.

This makes the LS100MT a fully universal apochromatic telescope of the highest quality.
