DOMES  

CANOPUS offers two portable domes with diameters of 5 meters (16.4 feet) and 6 meters (19,7 feet). Each dome comes with a three-speed, 20-inch (50.8 centimeters), industrial fan that is placed outside of the dome. The fan insures good air circulation and proper inflation.

                    .    

Because our domes are constructed of very lightweight material, the relatively small fan can be easily replaced at appliance stores in the rare event of failure or deterioration that exceeds our warranty.

                               

Each fan has a 4 meter (12.4 feet) control cable. This allows the operator to control the fan speed from inside the dome to add air that is lost when visitors enter and leave the dome.

             

Visitors enter and exit the dome through a 1.8-meter (5.9 foot) vertical flap. There is an overlapping lapel to keep outside light from entering. The dome material is 99.9% opaque. This insures that the interior will remain almost 100% dark, regardless of where the dome is placed, be it inside, or outside, during daytime, or at night.
