Atik 16200 Mono

ATIK 16.2 megapixel monochrome CCD camera with the modern KAF-16200 sensor

♦ Sensor: KAF-16200 - 27.2 x 21.8 mm (35 mm diagonal)
♦ Pixels: 6 µm pixels for high resolution, 4500x3600 pixels
♦ Quantum efficiency approx. 60% - significantly higher sensitivity than comparable sensors
♦ The camera can still be used well with 2" focusers. The sensor´s image field is illuminated and corrected by 2" correctors and reducers.
♦ Due to 2-step Peltier cooling, the camera reaches up to 50 °C below ambient temperature
♦ Distance from M54 connection thread to camera sensor: only 19.5 mm
♦ Argon filled - no internal fogging possible
♦ Camera weight: only approx. 1300 grams

ATIK 16200 Mono - cooled 16.2 megapixel CDD camera for astrophotography
This CCD camera from ATIK offers very good performance with almost all amateur telescopes for astrophotography. With 35 mm sensor diameter, 2" correctors can be used. Even lighter focusers can handle the 1.3 kg camera weight. The high resolution of the fine pixels, the very high sensitivity and the large image field make the Atik 16200 an ultimative camera for astrophotography.

Features and advantages of the ATIK 16200 CCD camera:

♦ Easy adaption to your telescope via the M54 connection thread - suitable adapters can be found in the accessories section
♦ The camera fits directly to the ATIK EFW2 filter wheels
♦ The sensor is in an air-tight, argon-filled chamber - no fogging possible
♦ Very good quantum efficiency of 60%
♦ Minimal read noise - only approx. 9 e- RMS
♦ 2-stage Peltier cooling upt to 50 °C below ambient
♦ Housing newly developed by ATIK, offers more stability and comfort at minimum weight
♦ Mechanical shutter (optimal for darks)
♦ Exposure time from 200 ms to any longer time
♦ Working distance: 19.5 mm from the female M54 thread

Information about the sensor:
The camera comes with a "Class II" sensor as standard. The extra charge for a "Class I" sensor is very high and the resulting image does not differ from the one of a "Class II" sensor after successful image processing.
