• Nexus

  The most powerful FEEP propulsion system ever developed, for medium-sized spacecraft. It delivers up to 4500s specific impulse with a propellant four times denser than xenon, and has approximately 480 ion emission sites.

• Micro R³

  A modular, high-performance propulsion system for 10-100kg spacecraft. It has a dynamic thrust range of 0.5-1 mN, specific impulse of 2,700s at 1 mN, and each 1.6 L module delivers over 50,000 Ns at 4,000 s Isp.

• Nano R³

  The latest evolution of Enpulsion's heritage design, for spacecraft up to 25kg. It has a dynamic thrust range of 150-350 µN, specific impulse of 2,500s at 350 µN, and total impulse of 5,300 Ns at 350 µN.

• Cortex Smart Mobility Interface

  A product interface designed to enable customers to control multiple thrusters via a common interface instead of directly interacting with the thrusters. It operates with pre-defined protocols for Enpulsion thrusters.
