Thermal Vacuum Test System (TVAC)-ToronTVAC™ 1200 Series
Thermal Vacuum Test System (TVAC)-ToronTVAC™ 1200 Series
TVAC testing helps verify how satellite components perform in a high-vacuum, extreme-temperature environment. ToronTVAC™ 1200 is designed for satellite-level single units (components) that need stable thermal control and reliable vacuum performance.
The system combines a vacuum chamber, heat sink, and cold plate to support repeatable thermal cycling and performance checks. Its build focuses on clean vacuum operation, controlled heat transfer, and consistent temperature results.
ToronTVAC™ 1200 is a thermal vacuum (TVAC) test system built for component-level space simulation. It creates a controlled low-pressure environment while cycling temperature across a wide range to evaluate functionality, thermal behavior, and durability. A dedicated heat sink and cold plate support heat extraction and thermal balance during test profiles.
The chamber size supports practical fixture setups for satellite subsystems and instrument modules. This configuration suits qualification, acceptance, and investigation testing in aerospace and advanced electronics labs.
