This 115 mm FPL51 and lanthanum air-spaced triplet has a 800 mm focal length and nominal f/7 focal ratio. It is intended for visual astronomy and astrophotography with the appropriate camera train.
The 2.5-inch dual-speed RAP focuser rotates through 360° and provides M63/M68 threaded attachment as well as visual sockets. The tube weighs 5.9 kg.
The optional TSFLAT25Del and matched 0.8× TSREDM63-115 are documented at 55 mm from the M48 camera thread. The manufacturer’s reducer focal-length example is inconsistent with its native 800 mm table value and is not used to replace it.
TS-Optics manufacturer documentation
Manufacturer table gives 800 mm focal length, while its reducer example (644 mm at 0.8×) implies 805 mm. Native 800 mm table value retained; no derived focal length silently replaces it.
