About
The Deployment System 200 kg is engineered for the smooth and shockless deployment of space satellites weighing up to 200 kg. A key feature of this system is the absence of pyrotechnics, which contributes to a gentler separation process from the upper stage of a launch vehicle. This design choice minimizes shock loads on the satellite during deployment. The system is capable of separating a satellite within 1 second, with a separation velocity ranging from 0.5 to 2.0 m/s and an angular separation velocity of no more than 2 degrees per second. It is designed to operate across a wide temperature range, from -60°C to +60°C, making it suitable for various space environments.
