Description
Pairing a massive 406mm (15.98 inches) aperture with 10Micron absolute encoder tracking, the Omegon Pro RC 406/3250 Truss GM 3000 observatory-class telescope system delivers 0.29 arcsecond Dawes resolving power. Designed in Germany and assembled with Italian and Chinese components, this f/8 system features a 3250mm focal length, reaching magnitude 14.9 for autonomous deep-sky research.
The Omegon Pro RC 406/3250 Truss GM 3000 features dual hyperbolic quartz mirrors with near-zero thermal expansion and 94% enhanced reflective aluminum coatings. Its open truss framework uses carbon fiber rods and CNC aluminum blocks, paired with a decoupled primary mirror cell and a 3.2-inch rotating focuser. Supported by a 10Micron GM 3000 HPS direct-drive equatorial mount with absolute encoders, the complete 147.00 kg (324.08 lbs) observatory system tracks orbits without autoguiding.
Key Features of Omegon Pro RC 406/3250 Truss GM 3000
Engineered for professional observatory research and automated sky surveys, this 16-inch Omegon Pro Ritchey-Chrétien telescope pairs an open-truss quartz optical tube with a 10Micron GM 3000 HPS mount.

16-Inch Hyperbolic Quartz Optics & Aplanatic Performance
The 406mm quartz mirrors provide enormous photon collection without thermal expansion errors, while the dual hyperbolic figure eliminates coma across large sensors. This flagship Omegon Pro observatory telescope supports useful magnifications from 58x up to 812x.
10Micron GM 3000 HPS Mount & Absolute Encoder Tracking
Unguided long-exposure imaging requires sub-arcsecond tracking precision across celestial coordinates. The Omegon Pro RC 406/3250 includes a 10Micron GM 3000 HPS mount equipped with dual-axis absolute encoders that track celestial targets without an autoguider. Anchored to a heavy CNC base plate, it ensures uncompromising pointing repeatability for remote scientific research programs.
- 10Micron GM 3000 HPS mount with direct-drive dual-axis absolute encoders
- 3.2-inch heavy-duty rack and pinion focuser with 360-degree camera field rotator
- Decoupled primary mirror cell preventing collimation shifts under heavy camera loads
