Engineered to meet the needs of the most demanding applications, the PlaneWave T-600 is capable of carrying payloads on each side of the altitude axis for observatory-class telescope applications where multiple instruments are necessary.

With rugged environments in mind, the T-600 comes standard with 2-layer non-contact sealing at each motion-surface to prevent water (light-to-moderate rain) and debris entry.

• Load capacity of 600 lb. (272 kg)
• Direct-drive motors on each axis for smooth, fast, and virtually silent movement of the telescope
• Acceleration up to 70 degrees/second/second*
• Velocity up to 150 degrees/second*
• High resolution encoders on each axis for precise positioning
• Zero backlash and zero periodic error
• PointXP mount modeling software
• Enclosed electronics with optional rubberized seals for ruggedization
• Through the mount cabling
• Alt/Az, Alt/Alt, or equatorial installation orientation

* T-600 performance specifications are highly conservative and currently based upon L-series gimbal performance.
