Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about Control Tech Products: Advanced Power Control and Distribution Equipment for Aerospace
What types of protective coatings are used on SolarWing's solar panels to minimize degradation from atomic oxygen in LEO?
In Low Earth Orbit (LEO), atomic oxygen is a significant threat to solar panel performance. SolarWing employs specialized coatings, such as silicon dioxide (SiO2) or aluminum oxide (Al2O3), applied using techniques like sputtering or atomic layer deposition. These coatings create a barrier that prevents atomic oxygen from reacting with the underlying solar cell materials, thus minimizing erosion and maintaining power output over the mission lifetime. The specific coating and application method are chosen based on mission parameters and radiation exposure levels.
What missions is this product suitable for?
Perfect for satellites, spacecraft, rockets, and aerospace platforms requiring reliable power distribution and regulation. Ideal for missions demanding high efficiency (≥95%) and stable operation in extreme temperatures (-25°C to 60°C).
How does this product compare to related products?
Unlike basic power controllers, our PCDU series offers multiple regulation methods (S3R, MPPT, S4R), wide voltage ranges (21-45.1V), and intelligent control features. Superior efficiency stability (±0.5%) and modular design provide enhanced reliability over conventional aerospace power systems.
What are the key technical advantages?
Key advantages include high conversion efficiency (92-95%), overcurrent protection, automatic self-powered energy control, and advanced unlock circuits using memory alloy technology. Multiple series options support power outputs from 400W to 3150W with proven 5+ year operational lifetimes.
How does it integrate with other systems?
Features CAN/RS422 BUS communication for seamless integration with spacecraft command and control systems. Multiple voltage output options (+5.5V, +12V, -12V) support various subsystem requirements. Modular plug-in design enables easy integration with existing aerospace power architectures.
