Default TQ (TecQuipment CE5a) Analogue Computer

Can anyone help with information about an Analogue training computer made by TecQuipment (RQ) Model No.CE5a please?

It looks to have been made to a high standard, and judging by the components used, dates from the 1970s or 80s. The Op-amps are 747s.

I had a look at the early website captures and don't see any reference to anything like this.

The styling suggests to me something supplied by the Open University as part of a computing course. Peter.

Seems to be a company that is proud of its heritage

I suggest you contact them addressing their "Company Archivist" or similar.
