Do you own a Celestron 9.25" SCT mounted on a SW AZ-EQ6-GT?


Recommended Posts

I'm looking to change my observatory set up which I'm hoping will include a Celestron 9.25" SCT mounted on a (equatorially-mounted) Skywatcher AZ- EQ6-GT. However, I've realised that I don't know the dimensions of this set up so don't know whether it will fit in my observatory.

From what I can tell,the key dimension I'm after is the distance from the centre of the axis of base of the mount to the top of the OTA of the Celestron SCT with the OTA mounted horizontally.  (see crude mockups below).

Can anyone help with what these dimensions (A and  B) are?

Hi Michael,

I have a C9.25" and a SW NEQ6 Pro, which comes with an extension on the counterweight bar, which comes to:
A: 50 cm
B: 55 cm

Beware though, the full extent is about 120 cm in diameter.
