The rigid, modular telescope, scalable and designed to go further
The Sevunscope Advanced 150 f/6 is a technical alternative to traditional tubes for those seeking a precise, scalable telescope capable of exploiting longer focal lengths, while preserving the modular DNA of the Sevun system. This configuration favors comfort at high magnifications while integrating into an advanced mechanical platform.
The idea behind the Advanced platform
Instead of enclosing the optics in a sheet-metal tube, we developed an open platform made of aeronautical-grade aluminum integrating a telescopic mechanism. This architecture makes it possible to adjust the length of the platform in order to accommodate various focal lengths, including longer ones, while ensuring high mechanical rigidity. The platform provides the structure, while the modules carry the optics.
What this changes in the field
Controlled transport : The telescope remains fully disassemblable and transportable, while accepting a more massive structure linked to the telescopic mechanism. A deliberate compromise in the service of focal versatility.
Thermal equilibrium : The open structure allows the mirrors to reach thermal balance naturally and quickly, eliminating the internal air-current effect specific to closed tubes.
Durable design : The use of aluminum combined with high-performance Nylon components (SLS 3D printing) guarantees a rigid and long-lasting instrument. Each unit is assembled and inspected by hand in our workshop. The mechanical structure is guaranteed for life.
A reliable optical system (GSO)
We selected GSO mirrors (150 mm at f/6) for their consistency. The f/6 focal ratio is an excellent compromise for exploiting high magnifications on the Moon and planets, while maintaining good brightness and comfortable operation. This configuration integrates naturally into a platform capable of evolving toward even longer focal lengths.
An investment for your lifetime as an astronomer
The key strength of the Sevun system is its modularity. Your practice evolves ? Your instrument does too. With the Advanced platform, you retain your platform and can evolve your optical configuration toward other focal lengths or diameters, without calling your initial investment into question.
