I would think no. Unlike Binoculars, some which are Nitrogen purged/charged, one end of astronomical refractors is open to enable change of eyepieces for varying magnification. Maybe the fixed magnification spotting scopes might be purged/charged with Nitrogen.
Awesome, thank you very much Hans for the reply.
The optical cell is from a Chinese manufacturer and is threaded so there is no play when returning it back to its original position (collimation issues).
I have a set of binoculars that fog up in one eye when cold/rainy hence my question (they need re-purging).
