APM Professional Telescope Mount - APM-GE 300

APM Professional Mount APM-GE 300 with SiTech Controller

Our professional APM GE mountings starts at a point where at other
manufacturers mounts the carrying capacity is too low. The APM-GE 300 our biggest mount
has hollow shafts with a inner diameter of 90 mm and a outer diameter of
140 mm. So the mount has a very high photographic carrying capacity of 660 lb.


This mount has been developed for large Cassegrain telescopes and RC-Telescopes  from 24" aperture onwards but is also a perfect match for
long and heavy refractors like our large APM-LZOS apo refractors.


Very interesting are the extrem smooth adjustable friction clutches, which you can easily handle with a small grip.

In
the basic configuration you will get this mount with the SiTech
controller for GoTo operation. This controller has various possiblities to control the mount.
