About
The GATE Thruster L is the largest of GATE Space’s high-precision chemical thruster line, offering closed-loop pressure control via the combustion chamber for consistently accurate performance during complex or sensitive maneuvers. Patented injection technology enables stable, predictable deep throttling over a 1:10 range, supporting steady-state operation, transient thrust profiles and pulsed firings up to 10 Hz. Operating on C2H6/N2O propellants with 270-300 s specific impulse, it produces 20-200 N of thrust with a lead time of 9-12 months and base price of €50,000. It weighs under 2000 g, measures D<100mm x H<300mm, and is rated for -40C to +65C survivability.
