Description

If the basic version of the AEQUINOX is too small for you, then opt for the equatorial sundial in the XXL version. Calculated and manufactured as a unique piece for the geographical coordinates of the location.

The AEQUINOX XXL displays solar time (LAT) precisely. To determine Central European Time (CET) or any other standard time, simply take the current time difference between CET or CEST and LAT from the tables on the side and add it to the time read off the sundial.

The sundial is available in two sizes (other sizes available on request):

  •  AEQUINOX 750: outer diameter of the time ring 750mm. Outer diameter of the meridian ring 1000mm. Height approx. 1000mm. Floor mounting or on a base (e.g. made of stone or concrete). Also available with higher stand.
  •  AEQUINOX 1500: outer diameter of the time ring 1500mm. Outer diameter of the meridian ring 1650mm. Height approx. 2000mm floor mounted or on a base (e.g. made of stone or concrete). Also available with higher stand.

AEQUINOX XXL is offered in two material variants:

  • Base construction made of CORTEN steel, inscription made of stainless steel. CORTEN steel forms a desired rust layer (patina) after some time due to weathering. A particularly dense barrier layer of firmly adhering sulphates or phosphates forms under the rust layer, which permanently protects the sundial from further corrosion. The panels and the time scale made of finely ground stainless steel on the rusty surface of the CORTEN steel form a very attractive contrast that underlines the technical look of the AEQUINOX.
  • Basic construction made of powder-coated steel, lettering in finely ground stainless steel. The standard colour of the lacquer is metallic anthracite or you can choose your desired colour, please indicate the RAL shade if possible. The powder coating with anti-corrosive primer protects the steel permanently against corrosion.

AEQUINOX XXL is always designed and manufactured as a one-off production for the customer. This offers the advantage that we can meet your requirements without great additional expense. This concerns on the one hand the height of the sundial, the stand can be increased without any major loss of stability. On the other hand we can provide the time difference boards with an additional inscription (sundial wisdom, congratulations, etc.). Or do you have another idea?
