The ASAS-3 enclosure
In April 2002 the ASAS-2 system has moved to the new automated enclosure in
which all four instruments were installed.
New enclosure was made at the Warsaw University shops. It's main feature is
lightweigth clam-shell which two parts swing to the sides opening
the sky to the ~20 deg. above horizon. Shells are driven by off-the-shelf
gate-motors. Inside the enclosure
there is a stable rack housing
computers
on its bottom level and telescopes on the upper.
