ENPULSION
The ENPULSION NANO IR3 is the next-generation FEEP system based on the flight-proven success story that is the ENPULSION NANO (formerly: IFM Nano Thruster). 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.
