Pier-Tech PTD1 Walk In Dome

 

The Pier-Tech Dome 1 is a walk in dome observatory with the following standard features:
  • Galvalume construction with interlocking dome sheets providing a strong watertight design able to withstand harsh weather conditions.
  • Sub building is not needed since it?s built into the dome.
  • Motors on shutter and azimuth rotation are included.
  • Optional automation system is available from Pier-Tech.
  • Viewing range is from horizon to 15 degrees past zenith.
  • Full size walk-in door is included.
  • Optional contactor bars to provide current to shutter motor are available. This option eliminates the need to plug and unplug the shutter motor?s power cable, before and after dome rotation.
PTD1 Shutter design
Up and over shutter that seals against the top of the walk in door. Shutter opens from top of walk in door to 15 degrees past zenith. Since the walk in door travels with the dome in azimuth, the viewing range is effectively from ground to 15 degrees past zenith. Walk in door and shutter can be opened independently from each other.
