Apogee Instruments (CCD)
For a limited time, save up to $1599 when you buy select Apogee Alta U CCD Camera and Color Filter Wheel packages! In some instances, it's like getting your filter wheel for free...well, almost! OPT carries the Alta and Ascent series of CCD cameras...the latest in imaging technology from Apogee Instruments. Alta meets Apogee's design goals for imaging performance, connectivity, cooling, cost effectiveness and the elimination of external support electronics, and the new Ascent series offers a more compact housing, higher throughput, and lower prices.
Like the current AP and KX series, Alta is a platform, not a CCD or specific interface type. It is designed for a variety of CCDs, ranging from the smallest to those measuring 36mm on a side with 4096 x 4096 arrays.
Apogee's Alta platform comes in 3 optical apertures. The 25mm systems contain the small-mid size CCDs and maintain C-mount back focal distance. The 45mm systems contain larger CCDs up to 28mm on a side. Apogee's 63mm systems accommodate very large CCDs, such as the Kodak KAF-16801E sensor.
Ascent CCD cameras are a compact, cooled USB2.0 imaging system with many of the features found in the Alta Series. Ascent cameras offer cooling up to 40C below ambient, a hermetically sealed, argon-filled CCD chamber, a high speed USB2.0 serial interface, and support a wide range of CCD arrays...all at a very nice price.
OPT has helped premiere colleges, universities and professionals around the country purchase their Apogee Alta CCD cameras. We can help you, too. Please call or e-mail us if you have any questions or would like pricing information.
