Vacuum Test Stands

Vacuum test stand
A typical vacuum test stand chamber operating pressure of 0.16 psia is equivalent to an altitude of 100,000 feet.

Our vacuum test stands simulate a propulsion systems intended operating environment and allows us to verify a propulsion system will operated as intended once it is put into service.  Once a propulsion system is installed inside one of our enclosed test stand chambers, the chamber is evacuated to simulate altitude conditions. The vacuum environment is maintained during rocket engine firing sustaining a pressure environment representative of what a spacecraft will experience in space. Our team can use this environment to conduct a multitude of tests on:
