Description
Configured as a standalone optical tube assembly, the Bresser N 130/1000 Messier Reflector OTA provides a 130 mm Newtonian mirror, 1000 mm focal length, and listed f/7.7 focal ratio for users selecting their own compatible mount and support equipment. The tube includes a 2.5-inch Hexafoc heavy-duty rack-and-pinion focuser, 6×30 optical finder, 26 mm Super Plossl eyepiece, mounting hardware, carrying handle, and integrated camera mounting point for a customized astronomy system.
The optical tube uses aluminum multi-coatings with a silicon dioxide protective layer and includes a universal Vixen-style dovetail bar with stainless steel rail protection, heavy-duty tube rings, and a 75 mm backfocus distance. Because this product is supplied as an OTA rather than a complete telescope kit, the mount, tripod, tracking system, counterweights, hand controller, and power equipment must be obtained separately when required for the final observing configuration.
Key Features of Bresser N 130/1000 Messier Reflector OTA
This optical tube assembly is intended for a customized telescope configuration where the buyer selects a compatible mount separately, while the supplied mounting hardware, finder, focuser, eyepiece, carrying handle, and camera mounting point provide the principal components needed to integrate the tube into a broader astronomy system.
- 130 mm Newtonian reflector
- 1000 mm focal length with listed f/7.7 focal ratio
- 2.5-inch Hexafoc heavy-duty focuser
- 75 mm backfocus distance
- Universal Vixen-style dovetail bar
- 6×30 optical finder scope
- 26 mm Super Plossl eyepiece
- Heavy-duty tube rings with carrying handle
Custom Optical Tube Configuration
The supplied application is a standalone optical tube configuration for lunar observation, planetary investigation, and selected deep-sky viewing, with the final tracking behavior, stability, power requirements, and observing controls depending entirely on the separately selected mount, tripod, counterweights, and compatible accessories used to complete the telescope system.
Included Accessories
The OTA package includes more than an unmounted optical tube because it supplies the finder, eyepiece, adapter hardware, heavy-duty rings, carrying handle, integrated piggyback camera mount, and Vixen-style dovetail plate, while the purchaser remains responsible for selecting suitable mounting and support equipment that matches the tube’s mechanical interface.
- 26 mm Super Plossl eyepiece and 1.25-inch adapter
- 6×30 finder scope and carrying handle
- Heavy-duty tube rings, camera mount, and Vixen-style dovetail plate
Bresser 2-Year Factory Warranty
The supplied product information lists a 2-year factory warranty for this optical tube assembly, but the buyer should confirm whether the warranty applies to the OTA alone, which included accessories are covered, and which US seller or distributor provides service before purchasing a mount, tripod, or other components separately for the final telescope configuration.
