Omegon Electronic Filter Wheel EFW 5×2″

Omegon Electronic Filter Wheel EFW 5×2″ is an electronically controlled filter wheel that allows you to change up to five 2-inch filters automatically. At the touch of a button or via your software, you change from LRGB to narrowband filters without manually opening your telescope setup. This not only saves time, but also minimizes chances of dust, shifting or misalignment of filters during a session.

The filter wheel is robust and lightly built, with a precise rotary mechanism that precisely locks each filter position. Thanks to its compatibility with ASCOM- and INDI-controlled software, the EFW integrates seamlessly into virtually any astrophotography setup. For added flexibility, you can swap carousels separately, allowing you to prepare separate filter sets for different projects.
