Pulsar Observatory Dome

Option 1: Short-Height (Roof-Top installation)

The Pulsar 2.7M Short Height Roof-Top Observatory Dome will provide a high quality, secure and practical housing for our Celestron 11" Edge HD telescope. The motorised shutter and power driven rotation of the dome will allow our telescope to be ready for use at all times. The ability to bring our main telescope into operation while viewing from indoors will add greatly to the enjoyment of our visitors during their exploration of the night sky.

The Pulsar Observatories 2.7 metre short height dome benefits from the following advanced features -

  • Finest quality, weatherproof GRP finish.
  • For installation to a new or existing flat roof building.
  • High-quality locking system.
  • Simple design for self-assembly.
  • Motorised dome rotation is available.
  • Motorised dome shutters are available.
  • Available in white, sage green or any other colour of choice to suit the environment.

 

 

Dimensions:

  • Total Height approx 1.7 metres
  • Dome Diameter approx 2.7 metres
  • Wall Height approx 250mm
  • Dome Aperture approx 0.7 metres

        Cost: £3,795

 

Installation and accessories:

The Pulsar Observatory dome is sectional in design and is delivered in kit form. Alternatively, the company can provide a complete installation service.

Various upgrades and accessories are available.

  • Pulsar Shutter Drive £1,295.
  • Pulsar Dome Drive £1,295.

Pulsar Observatories can also supply a steel pier, that will complete the permanent installation of the telescope. The pier can be delivered and installed with the observatory, if ordered together, at a discounted price. The pier can be fabricated to custom height to suit our requirements.

Delivery time is 6-8 weeks and there would be a delivery charge according to location.

 



Option 2: Full-Height (Ground Installation)

 

 

Dimensions:

  • Total Height approx 2.7 metres
  • Dome Diameter approx 2.7 metres
  • Door Height approx: 1.2 metres
  • Dome Aperture approx 0.7 metres=

        Cost: £4,795
