Description
ATR533C leverages SONY advanced optical technology boasting 9 megapixels and high QE, allowing users to easily capture clearer deep-sky images. With no amp-glow, an ultra-low readout noise as low as 1.1e, and 3.76μm square pixels, it ensures exceptional image quality. Additionally, the camera has an excellent TEC cooling system maintains precise temperature control within a deviation of 0.1℃, while the dew prevention heater (window heating) further enhances performance. It is a camera specially created for beginners of deep-sky photography!
Please remember: all ToupTek Astro DSO cooled cameras can only be powered by 12V3A DC power supply. We recommend using the power adapter that comes with the camera or a lithium-ion battery with stable output of 11-14V. Please do not use power supplies that have falsely stated specifications or unstable outputs to power the camera, as this may affect image capture or even damage the camera.
Sensor Infor
ATR533C features Sony imx533 1-inch Optical Format Color sensor Resolution: 3008*3008 Pixel Size: 3.76μm*3.76μm Image Area: 11.31mmx11.28mm Diagonal: 15.97mm
DDR3
ATR533C camera has a 512MB (4Gb) ultra-fast memory buffer to ensure stable image transmission.
Two stage TEC cooling system
ATR533C is designed with an integrated heat dissipation structure and an efficient cooling module. The cooling system of ATR533C features a two-stage Thermoelectric Cooling (TEC) with controllable electric fan assisting in heat dissipation. This allows the image sensor to operate at temperatures up to 42 degrees Celsius lower than the ambient temperature. The exposure time can be set for up to 1 hour, ensuring that every minute detail is captured. Even in summer, it can still run stably all night with cooling temperatures ranging from of -5°C to -10°C.
Zero Amp-Glow
ATR533C has been carefully designed and is able to achieve zero amp-glow photo shooting. This not only greatly reduces the generation of internal glow, but also effectively suppresses the interference of external light. It also enhances the stability and durability of the camera, which means you'll be able to capture sharper, cleaner images in both long and high exposure modes.
Anti-dew technology
ATR533C adopts the new anti-dew technology, which can effectively solve the condensation problem through heating. This heating function consumes about 5 watts, which can be turned off via software to save power. Additionally, The dew heater at the protection window has 4 adjustable levels, allowing users to find the heating power that best suits their needs.
