About

Lusospace’s MAG15 magnetometer is an ideal solution for attitude reference in LEO missions. It measures the surrounding magnetic field and provides 3-axis analogue readings, which can be used by a spacecraft’s attitude determination and control system to derive orientation relative to Earth’s magnetic field. The device is housed in a compact enclosure for easy integration into spacecraft structures. This model operates with a supply voltage of ±15 V. The MAG15 is fully qualified for space applications according to ECSS (ESA) standards and MIL standards, making it suitable for use in LEO satellite missions requiring reliable magnetic field sensing for attitude reference purposes.
