Alta cooled CCD camera
The Apogee - Alta cameras, a whole new architecture for cooled CCD cameras. Choose the Alta U cooled ccd camera Series for higher throughput USB 2.0. Or choose the Alta E cooled ccd camera Series with 100bT interface: no local host computer required.

Like the past AP and KX series, Alta is a platform. It is designed for a variety of CCDs, ranging from the smallest to those measuring 36 mm on a side with 4096 x 4096 arrays. All Alta cooled CCD camera models have both 16-bit digitization for high precision and 12-bit digitization for high throughput; it uses on-board memory for fast local sequences and preventing transfer interruptions. The Alta U Series is chosen for high throughput via USB 2.0. The Alta E Series plugs directly into the Internet with its 100bT interface and requires no local computer.

    The highlights of the Alta cooled CCD cameras are:
  • Resolution from 512 x 512 to 4096 x 4096 pixels
  • Interline, frame transfer, and full frame CCDs
  • Front and back-illuminated CCDs
  • Dual 16-bit and 12-bit digitization
  • Up to 32 Mbyte camera memory
  • USB2.0 or 100bT Ethernet interface
  • No plug in cards or external controllers
  • Programmable cooling to 60°C below ambient
  • Programmable fan speed for low / zero vibration
  • Runs from single 12 V supply
  • More features and information


  • The Alta platform comes in 3 optical apertures.
  • The 25 mm systems contain the small-mid size CCDs and maintain C-mount back focal distance.
  • The 45 mm systems contain larger CCDs up to 28 mm on a side.
  • The 63 mm systems accommodate very large CCDs such as the Kodak KAF-16801E sensor.

Make your own choice for the Embedded 100baset (Alta E Series) or USB2.0 Interfaces (Alta U Series).

    Applications:
  • Astronomy
  • Life Sciences
  • Spectroscopy
  • OEM Applications

    Benefits:
  • Easier installation
  • no need for controllers or plug-in cards.
  • Short download times
  • Many choices of CCDs

Upgrade Your Existing Camera to Alta
Already possess an Apogee cooled CCD camera with a CCD supported by Alta? Then your CCD can be placed into the new Alta camera for a cost far less than the cost of a new cooled CCD camera. Currently owning a camera NOT produced by Apogee but with a CCD supported by Alta, contact us to discuss the possibility and price of an upgrade to an Alta cooled CCD camera.
