About
The 5 N HPGP thruster from ECAPS (a Bradford Space company) is a mid-thrust-class monopropellant engine running on the non-toxic, ADN-based LMP-103S propellant. It provides attitude control and orbital maneuvering capability for small and medium satellite platforms.
Part of ECAPS’ flight-qualified HPGP thruster family spanning 100 mN to 220 N, offering higher performance than hydrazine without the associated toxic-propellant handling requirements.
