ENPULSION NANO IR³

The ENPULSION NANO IR³ is the next-generation FEEP system based on the flight-proven success story that is the ENPULSION NANO. Incorporation of lessons learned from a large number of acceptance test campaigns and in-orbit performance verifications led into an updated electronics design, thermostructural concept, and software functionality. The resulting product – the ENPULSION NANO IR³ – features increased reliability, radiation tolerance, and environmental resilience, and is configured to enable higher-thrust operating points.

RAD-TOLERANT ELECTRONICS

All EEE components of the ENPULSION NANO IR³ are procured in lot-controlled batches. Selected sets of these batches are subjected to radiation testing, so that each thruster can be traced back to a fully representative qualification model. EEE components were selected and integrated to be more tolerant to TID and SEE.

FLIGHT HERITAGE

The ENPULSION NANO IR³ is an updated version of the space proven ENPULSION NANO. It is directly building on its heritage, leveraging the proven design and component selection.

PROTECTIVE CASING

The thruster is assembled into a protective casing that shields the electronics from the hazardous space radiation environment, facilitates handling during integration, and allows side mounting.

VERSATILE PERFORMANCE

Thrust can be controlled through the electrode voltages, providing excellent controllability over the full thrust range and a low thrust noise. Due to the efficient ionization process, the ENPULSION NANO IR³ can provide a higher specific impulse than any other ion propulsion system currently on the market.

SAFE AND INERT SYSTEM

The ENPULSION NANO IR³ contains no moving parts and the indium propellant is in its solid state at room temperature. Avoiding any liquid and reactive propellants as well as pressurized tanks significantly simplifies handling, integration, and launch procedures.
