About

The AIS-SWAG1-DUO is a dual-module sublimation warm gas thruster using solid unpressurized Adamantane as propellant. Operating at 10W with dual thruster outputs, it provides 240uN of thrust for up to 7 hours of operation. The system enables approximately 8.8km of orbital movement for a 1kg 1U CubeSat or 2.9km for a 3kg 3U CubeSat. Featuring the same pre-heat and ramp-up characteristics as the SWAG1-PQ, the DUO doubles the propellant load (19g) and total impulse (6Ns) compared to the single unit. Inputs are 12V, 5V, GND, and a single logic command. Status: AVAILABLE.
