About
The Deployment System 100 kg is engineered for the smooth and shockless deployment of space satellites with a maximum mass of 100 kg. A key feature of this system is the absence of pyrotechnics, which eliminates the shock and potential damage associated with traditional explosive separation mechanisms. This non-pyrotechnic approach ensures a gentle separation from the upper stage of a launch vehicle. The system is designed to operate within a wide temperature range of -60°C to +60°C, making it suitable for various space environments. It provides a separation time of less than or equal to 1 second, with a separation velocity ranging from 0.5 to 2.0 m/s and an angular separation velocity of less than or equal to 2 °/s. The system itself has a mass of 8.0 kg.
