About
The HyNOx 4U CubeSat Propulsion Module is a complete propulsion system offered by ISPTech, specifically designed for 4U CubeSats. It integrates one HyNOx-1 thruster, capable of 0.5-2 N thrust and an Isp of over 260 s, along with four cold/warm gas thrusters for precise attitude control. This module enables significant deltaV for rapid orbit changes and provides roll, pitch, and yaw control. It offers an impulse capability of over 4,000 Ns for the standard length configuration, with customized systems starting from 4,300 Ns. The module has dimensions of 209.3×209.3×110.0 mm³ and features an adjustable Z-length. It operates with a 20-33 VDC supply voltage and communicates via an RS-485 bus, with other communication options available. The system is qualified according to the SpaceX Falcon 9 Payload User Guide for rideshare missions, ensuring its suitability for space deployment. It is available now with a lead time of 6 months. ISPTech also offers a broader range of HyNOx Propulsion Systems, including various HyNOx thrusters (HyNOx-1, HyNOx-5, HyNOx-22, HyNOx-200) and Cold Gas Propulsion Systems, all designed for different spacecraft and mission requirements.
