The filter wheel body is CNC milled from an aircraft-graded aluminum block.

Excellent craftsmanship, very thin and light with only 20mm thickness.

The core part of our EFW is the stepper motor which has reliable performance and quality that comes from NPM, Japan.

We have two specifications for EFW2”:
TYPE1: EFW5X2”
TYPE2: EFW7X2”

2″ Thread-In Filters or

50.4mm ±0.5mm Unmounted Filters can be used 

The 2” Electronic Filter Wheel can be rotated in both counterclockwise and clockwise directions for filter selection.

There is no need for multiple cables to power this wheel up, just one USB cable does the trick. The maximum power supply of this EFW is approximately 120mAh @ 5V, which can be operated from the Cooled CCD’s USB 2.0 port.

When connected to ASI6200, the distance from the filter to the sensor is about 18mm

Our 2″ RGBL filters are recommended to work with the ASI6200MM Pro camera, it will offer a nearly 1:1:1 RGB color balance.

Below requirements must be met while using the 2” filter from a third party.

Filters (not including the threads) must be less than 7.5mm in thickness and less than 50.8mm in diameter. Threads must be less than 2.7mm in thickness.
