In the frame of the Spacetech Expo Bremen SPL had the opportunity to show it’s 10kN engine at the booth of KISTLER ® Sensors.
The engine is equipped with various ultra-fast piezoelectric quartz sensors (to sense normal pressure and combustion instabilities), a high temperature pressure sensor (which can withstand a temperature of over 800 °C!) and a 6 DOF dynamometer (Force in xyz and torque in xyz), all made by KISTLER ®.
