Kulite has been supporting the Space Exploration and Launch Vehicle Community since the 1980’s. This relationship has resulted in the development and certification of numerous pressure measurement devices designed for precision performance to demanding requirements.

The Launch Vehicles have a number of challenging applications: Tank Pressure, Liquid Fuel, Combustion, Chamber Pressure and Pressure Measurement for Stage Separation. Also, there are a number of Kulite Pressure Probes on the Planet Mars with the ROVER Vehicles including Opportunity, Curiosity, and Perseverance.

For satellite applications, miniature transducers with space heritage are used for noble gas pressure tank/delivery system measurements of Hall-effect thrusters and gridded ion thrusters. They are also ideal for use with cryogenic fuel delivery system propellants, liquid fuel/oxidizers, and monopropellants needed for in-space mobility. With our innovative research, ingenious designs and reliability, make Kulite a part of your space exploration program.
