About this product
Model: sx-trius-46m
Part Number: Trius-SX-46m
The new SX-46 camera from Starlight Xpress is a large area, full-frame CCD camera with a 16.7 megapixel sensor!
It utilises the popular KAF-16200 sensor which has an 'APS-H' format array of 27mm x 21.6mm, 6uM square pixels.
The use of a full frame chip requires a mechanical shutter so Starlight Xpress have developed a custom 'roller blind' assembly that uses mini stepper motors to provide an extremely uniform shutter action.
MAJOR FEATURES
- Full Frame KAF-16200 Sensor with 6uM square pixels.
- 27mm x 21.6mm (APS-H format) sensor array.
- Hugh 4540 x 3640 16.7 megapixel resolution.

- Three-stage Peltier cooler to give greater than -50C below ambient.
- Efficient temperature controller to keep power consumption to less than 2 amps at 12v DC.
- Standard 'Trius' 3 port USB2.0 hub built-in.
