Features
Type S is a part of the new reliable low-disturbance reaction wheel assembly family (Type L, Type M and Type S).
Type S exploits the heritage of the advanced and highly-reliable design of its predecessors, Types L and M, but is optimized for its small-size,
light-weight and low-cost requirements for small spacecraft missions.
Applications
Reaction Wheel is a attitude control actuator for 3-axis stabilization of spacecraft.
Type S covers a storage momentum range from 5 Nms upto 10 Nms for spacecraft weight between 300 kg and 500 kg.
