About
The Beyond Gravity PSR 1575 mm (62 in) separation system is fully compatible with the Evolved Expendable Launch Vehicle (EELV) Secondary Payload Adapter (ESPA). The PSR 1575 Separation System includes a low shock clamp band separation system, payload separation rings, umbilical connectors and a separation spring set. Utilizing the CBOD Low Shock Release Mechanism, every Beyond Gravity separation system provides the unique combination of high load capability and a low shock release.
Each customer may require specific mission adaptation, but the company’s successful heritage has resulted from working closely with customers and contractors during the spacecraft design phase to establish a fully compatible design.
Developed over 40 years of 100% flight success, the Beyond Gravity family of Payload Adapters and Separation Systems spans a range of diameters from 15 to 122 inch (381 mm to 3100 mm). To date (June 2026) Beyond Gravity has provided customers with more than 1600 in-orbit separations, carried out with a success rate of 100%. The customer base includes the major launch service providers and satellite contractors supporting end-users that include most US and international commercial operators, and government and national space agencies.
