The 10Micron CENTAURUS II tripod is designed for the GM2000 / AZ2000 mount family. Its manufacturer table specifies 21 kg tripod weight, an operating height range of 90–135 cm, and a 200 kg tripod support rating.
Structure and levelling
The construction uses aluminium; maker technical sheet specifies ergal 7075 tubing. The adjustment arrangement is three-stage collapsible legs with heavy-duty clutches, providing levelling and height adjustment at the observing site.
Mounting and total load
The head diameter is 230 mm. The support rating applies to the tripod’s complete supported load, including the mount head and counterweights as well as instrumentation. It is separate from the mount’s own telescope capacity. Use the native interface or a manufacturer-approved adapter for a different mount.
Equipment and transport
A 10Micron padded transport bag and accessory tray are included. The package also includes an electronics hanger and bubble level. Collapsed length is 100 cm, and the published bag size is Ø30 × 100 cm. Mount, counterweights and telescope are separate equipment.
Tripod support load is not the mount instrument capacity: include the mount, counterweights and equipment. Weights, alloy and dimensions follow the technical sheet. Product prose calls the structure Anticorodal, while the technical sheet specifies ERGAL 7075; the discrepancy is explicit.
