About
The Satellite Platform CubeSat 3U is a fully assembled, verified, and tested satellite platform, released in 2018, and designed specifically for scientific and educational missions. It has a guaranteed service life of 1 year, with an estimated production and delivery time of 5 months. While it does not have flight qualification, it offers the possibility to be adapted to customer requirements. The platform is capable of operating in Low Earth Orbit (LEO) up to 650 km and provides an active lifetime of at least 6 months. It has dimensions of 108x108x340.5 mm and a mass of no more than 1.5 kg (assembled, without payload). The available space for payload is 80x70x220 mm, and it includes an accumulator with a capacity of at least 39 W*h. The on-board interface is CAN2.0 B, and it can provide an average power consumption of payload per orbit of at least 1 W. The platform features a 1 W transmitter power and a radio channel speed of 9600 bps in half-duplex mode. Payload integration is possible before tests. The platform’s contents include 12 side Si solar panels with coils, 2 end edge Si solar panels with coils, a power supply system with a battery unit, a motherboard, a computer, a UHF transceiver, the 3U CubeSat structure, 6 protective covers, a UHF antenna with a service panel, a charger, and a transportation case for 3U.
