About
The Working Medium Tank MVSK is a hydrazine propellant tank for monopropellant propulsion systems on spacecraft. It stores 8.4 ± 0.1 dm³ of hydrazine at up to 1.32 MPa pressure, with a residual propellant of not more than 0.2 dm³. The tank has a mass of not more than 2.5 kg and holds flight qualification status (Letter ‘O’, flight use). It features a stiff-plastic diaphragm for propellant/pressurant separation and is rated for 12.5 years of service life.
