What is BS EN 16603‑20‑21 about?
BS EN 16603 discusses standards for space engineering.
BS EN 16603‑20-21 is part of a series of documents that specifies the requirements needed to specify, procure or develop the electronics needed for driving release actuators (bot explosive like pyrotechnic devices or non-explosive like thermal knives) and gives the relevant electrical interface specification, both from source and load perspective.
BS EN 16603‑20-21 covers explosive or non-explosive actuators electronics required to comply with single fault tolerance with respect to actuation success.
Who is BS EN 16603-20-21 for?
BS EN 16603-20-21 on interface requirements for electrical actuators is applicable to:
- Spacecraft and space products manufacturers
- Aerospace and defense industries
- Testing agencies involved in the inspection of spacecraft and aerospace products
- Design engineers
- Aircraft manufacturers
Why should you use BS EN 16603-20-21?
As a spacecraft manufacturer, BS EN 16603-20-21 helps you in achieving better quality, stability of performances, and independence of the products from specific mission targets by providing general, source, and load interface requirements.
BS EN 16603-20-21, you can demonstrate the reliability of their spacecraft and space products and build trust in its use throughout the space engineering supply chain.
