Large Format Crayford Newtonian Focusers
MoonLite CRL 2.5 inch Large Format Crayford Newtonian Focusers The CRL large 2.5" ID draw tube features 1" to 2" of travel options and comes with both an 2.5" to 2" adapter and a 2.5" to 1 1/4" adapter. The standard drawtubes have a 3 thumbscrew brass compression ring style clamping systems. We also make a 68mm threaded version of all drawtube lenghts and threaded adapters as well. The focuser comes standard with our large 1.5" Tri-knob dual rate 8 to 1 reduction unit for great lifting capacity while retaining extremely smooth focuser ability. We added a new shaft lock system to the left knob allowing the focusers position to be locked using a micro compression ring clamp on the left knob. This type of lock does not push against the draw tube like other lock systems do. There is no image shift with this style of shaft lock system. The focuser also comes with 4 different motor options. A DC motor version with Rigel hand controller for visual use, or our popular "High Res stepper motor option" with the choice of 2 different controllers for extreme imaging needs requiring very fine repeatability and temp compensation using any ASCOM software. Many flange sizes are available, allowing the focuser to fit curves from 7" up to 24" round OTAs. We also make a flat flange for larger dobs. The 2 piece flange system is rotatable for camera angle or mounting angle preference, and provides collimatable flexibility for achieving perfect mechanical centerline collimation using our 3 point push /pull mounting configuration. Add custom anodized color options for a perfect, one of a kind focuser to match your Newtonian. Click the thumbnail on the left for a full description and photos of all the different configurations.
