saxon Solar Filter (130mm)
Saxon Solar Filters provide observers a safe and easy way to view the sun.
NOTE: The outside fitting diameter of this filter is 150 mm.
This filter will fit the following telescopes
Starsense 127 AZ, Starsense DX 130 and other 130 mm aperture reflector telescopes.
This filter unit is not compatible with any 5" (125 mm) SCT telescopes.
With a coated thin film that blocks run rays and UV rays during your observation session, this solar filter works by minimising the amount of sun light entering into your telescope, projecting a natural yellow-orange image of the sun without any distortion.
All you need to do prior to your sun observation is to attach the solar filter over the front of the telescope as a protection for your eyes as well as the telescope's optics.
WARNING! Do not attempt to view the sun without a solar filter. Looking at or near the sun can result in irreversible eye damage.
