Electric propulsion xenon regulator

Our xenon regulator, designed for use in satellite and spacecraft electric propulsion systems, plays a critical role in achieving orbital station-keeping.

Eaton’s xenon regulator is designed in a dual redundant configuration to ensure continued system function should either stage fail open.

Our xenon regulator features a precise regulation band enabling it to regulate the high pressure stored gas down to a lower pressure within a very tight tolerance, welded closures to all external leak paths resulting in extremely low external leakage and an optimized design and packaging of components allowing Eaton to deliver a compact and low weight regulator solution to customers.

Eaton can customize a single stage or dual stage regulator configuration to meet your application requirements.
