Lunt BlockingFilter in star-diagonal 2"

1. Integrated Solar Safety: This Lunt BlockingFilter is an essential component for safe solar observation, designed to be used in conjunction with dedicated H-alpha front filters. It precisely blocks harmful wavelengths, ensuring a clear and safe view of the Sun.

2. Versatile Focal Length Compatibility: Available in various blocking filter sizes (B600, B1200, B1800), this diagonal accommodates a wide range of telescope focal lengths, from 540mm up to 1620mm, providing flexibility for different setups and observing needs.

3. Convenient 90° Viewing: The integrated 90° star-diagonal housing offers comfortable viewing angles, especially beneficial for long observation sessions or when using refractors, enhancing user experience.

4. Robust Connectivity: Featuring a 2" male focuser connection for stable mounting into most astronomical telescopes and both 1.25" eyepiece compatibility and a T2 thread, it allows for easy attachment of standard eyepieces or cameras for imaging.

ABOUT THE Lunt BlockingFilter in Star-Diagonal 2"

The Lunt BlockingFilter in Star-Diagonal 2" stands out by integrating the critical blocking filter directly into a 90° star-diagonal, streamlining your solar observation setup. This design ensures that the blocking filter is precisely positioned in the optical path, which is crucial for the safety and performance of H-alpha solar viewing. Unlike separate blocking filters, this integrated unit offers enhanced convenience and reliability. It is specifically engineered to be paired with Lunt H-alpha front filters, creating a complete solar observation system. Available in different blocking filter apertures – B600 for scopes up to 540mm focal length, B1200 for up to 1080mm, and B1800 for up to 1620mm – it provides versatile compatibility. The robust 2" focuser connection and additional 1.25" eyepiece mount, along with a T2 thread for imaging, make it a comprehensive solution for both visual observers and astrophotographers. Adherence to using original Lunt accessories and spare parts is highly recommended to prolong the product's lifetime and ensure optimal performance.
