Sensors acquisition and recording for troubleshooting is a cumbersome process in a fully furnished or operational aircraft, especially when time and low footprint are key drivers. 

This is no more the case with Safran new solution µMA: 

• its cylindrical form factor allows easy installation by just requiring a standard clamp used to mount tubes 
• its battery power supply and its wireless connectivity removes the need of installing any harness in the aircraft. 

All these capabilities are available while providing high measuring performance and harsh environment ruggedized in line with Safran standard solutions.

The PPS®1350 Hall Effet plasma thruster draws on Safran’s long experience with electric propulsion. It is designed for orbital transfer, station keeping and deorbiting satellites and other spacecraft. In particular, the PPS 1350 was the primary engine on ESA’s lunar probe, Smart-1, launched in 2003 by an Ariane 5 rocket. This mission was completed in September 2006.

The VS1410 is a video & data recorder/server packaged in a rugged compact chassis (3.75” x 5.75” x 7.36” / 6.4 lb), for recording on a Removable Memory Module (RMM).

Recorded data can be replayed in a standard PC/Windows® environment, using specific or COTS mission debrief solutions for post mission analysis. In addition, typically for ISR applications, data can be replayed while recording on board.

The ENERTEC™ mission data processing and distribution units offer cost-effective and dependable solutions for acquiring, processing, storing, exploiting, and disseminating field and mission data.

These units are suitable for both manned and unmanned ground, air, and sea vehicles. They undergo rigorous validation and formal qualification testing, adhering to standard test methods such as DO-160 and MIL-STD-810.

The SPARTE 500 series, commonly mounted with a 4.4 reflector, is a top-of-the-line dual-axis antenna that spans dish sizes from 15 to 18 feet. This field-proven telemetry tracking antenna has been trusted by customers for their most mission-critical applications.

With a widespread presence on test ranges around the world, the SPARTE 500 series antennas excel in meeting the rigorous demands of various flight test scenarios, whether it’s for long-range aircraft, missiles or launch vehicles tests.

These antennas offer a streamlined design, ensuring easy operation and making them a perfect fit for any ground test range, working hand in hand with smaller range trackers.

COMTRACK stands as the preferred choice for over 100 trusted telemetry tracking operators.

Its track record spans various applications, from military aircraft and helicopters to commercial aircraft and even launch vehicles. COMTRACK steps in where larger, space-consuming parabolic systems may not be the best fit.

With its compact, rugged design, this embedded phased array auto-tracking antenna excels at providing reliable telemetry reception across L, S, or C-bands, covering the entire sky up to 93 miles away. Its intelligent integration combines high-elevation reception with long-range capabilities, all within a protective radome.

Additionally, it enables dual-band installations to support systems operating in both current and future frequency ranges. When it comes to trust, simplicity, and performance, COMTRACK takes the lead.

eZ Processing is the solution for telemetry data processing, analysis and display (real time or playback). It allows the capture of the data either from a PCM signal or directly through data sent on Ethernet (IRIG 106 Chapter 10) by the receiver.

It performs the frame synchronization, Engineering Unit conversion, data display and storage, as well as data subset dissemination to dedicated analysis tools. It can accommodate multiple display stations, each having selectable parameters and displays. When used in a system with Safran Defense & Space, Inc. (formerly Safran Data Systems, Inc.) data acquisition units like the XMA or MDR, the software parameter database is automatically updated by eZ configuration software, reducing the set-up time and preventing all errors.

Configuring, managing, and integrating the system are crucial steps for ensuring the success of flight testing and achieving precise telemetry. eZ Software is your go-to solution. 

• eZ SetUp software allows to configure from a single acquisition unit to a complete acquisition system within a network architecture. 
• eZ Operation software is an advanced tool for centralized supervision and control of complex test systems from an onboard operator station. 
• eZ Processing / Advantys software offers advanced functions for data display and processing.

The CORTEX Best Source Selector (BSS) is the ultimate choice for real-time telemetry source selection. It’s the go-to tool for pinpointing the best Telemetry source among multiple antennas tracking the same airframe across various channels. 

The Best Source Selector streamlines the selection process by automatically choosing the top Telemetry stream, even from up to 16 sources or more, using a combination of signal quality metrics and other criteria. With its extensive capabilities in aligning paths and compensating for delays, the CORTEX Best Source Selector ensures optimal source selection, no matter where the antennas are located or what kind of range infrastructure you’re working with.
