ZWO PE200 Pier Extension

ZWO PE200 Pier Extension

ZWO PE200 pier extension: raises the mount above the tripod for more clearance between telescope, camera and tripod legs.

The PE200 fits between the ZWO TC40 tripod and the mount. Raising the mount lets long refractors, cameras and filter wheels clear the tripod legs when pointing high. The mount's mounting plate moves from the tripod to the top of the extension (three M6 screws), and the knobs lock the extension to the tripod and the mount to the extension.

ZWO note: for Sky-Watcher mounts, the PE200 is only compatible with the HEQ5 and is not suitable for the EQ6-R Pro.
