10Micron AZ2000HPS Alt-Azimuth Combi Mount
Price as Configured: $17,765.00
The 10Micron AZ2000HPS Combi is a professional-grade alt-azimuth research mount built on the proven mechanics of the GM2000HPS — carrying up to 110 lbs (50 kg) of instrument payload with the same sub-arcsecond pointing and tracking precision that defines the 10Micron HPS series. Optimized for satellite tracking, photometric and astrometric survey work, LiDAR applications, and multi-scope observatory configurations, the AZ2000HPS Combi brings observatory-grade flexibility to alt-azimuth astronomy.
Deep Space Products is the exclusive certified 10Micron service and support provider in the United States. All service, firmware updates, and repairs for AZ2000HPS mounts are handled domestically. A DSP Remote hosting discount is available — ask us about installing your AZ2000HPS under Bortle 1 skies in New Mexico. Sales are limited to North and South America.
Please note that, unless you are ordering a complete package, you must choose a saddle to go with the mount. The mount, by itself, does not include a saddle.
