SMALL SATELLITES
SYSTEMS
SITAEL is able to provide Small Satellites based “Turn-Key” services to meet customer’s needs, taking care of the complete chain from Mission Concept to Small Satellites Production up to Ground Infrastructure services.
PLATFORMS
SITAEL provides the whole end-to-end system, built around low-cost, multi-purpose platforms, most of them equipped with advanced electric propulsion to ensure greater flexibility in orbit manoeuvring/control and significant mission lifetime extension.
Smart and scalable satellite platforms characterized by state-of-art bus performances, high payload embarking capability, modular structure (P/L and P/F modules, easing MAIT activities), designed explicitly with multi-purpose features.
SITAEL’s main platform products go from the S-75 (up to 75 kg S/C mass) to the S-350 (up to 350 kg S/C mass).
All-electric platforms, equipped with SITAEL low power Hall effect electric propulsion subsystem (enhanced orbit control/manoeuvering capabilities), characterized by high power availability on-board (large deployable solar arrays and high battery capacity) and high-performance AOCS (fine pointing with a star tracker and high agility by torque/momentum actuators).
- Multi-application (EO-TLC-Science-IOV) up to 90kg P/L
- State-of-art technology on board (i.e. electric propulsion)
- Mixed COTS-space grade EEE approach, up to 10 krad TID (high competitiveness, high reliability)

Adapter and Separation Systems
SITAEL Adapters and Separation Systems for microsatellites provide an efficient and affordable solution for spacecraft/launch vehicle interface and satellites separation. The systems are based on Non Explosive Actuators (NEA) and “Four clamps” configuration, typical for the micro and mini class spacecraft.
