Gen2: CubeMag (Compact & Deployable)

Vendor profile

Overview

A 3-axis magnetormeter built for robustness and including a back-up sensor. The sensor comes in a compact or deployable version for satellites with larger magnetic disturbances.

The deployable form factor comes with a built-in redundant magnetometer. This sensor can be deployed to help mitigate magnetic disturbances. A compact form factor is further available for easy integration into your satellite for peace of mind.

The main features of CubeMag include:
• M2 mounting holes
• Deployment test – easy to deploy and stow through
• In-orbit calibration
• Precalibrated magnetometer
• Shared electronic design across the Gen2 family
