SV-CAS - SmartValve for terrestrial compressed air systems

Space Technology:
A simple and reliable rapid‑reaction valve for the precise dosage of cold pressurised gas for the comet lander Philae within ESA’s Rosetta mission (2004-2016).

Non-Space Application:
The combination of the SmartValve, a High-Speed Output Stage and sensor is the AirFlowSaver, which will be installed at the point of use of the compressed air.

Benefits:
The AirFlowSaver reduce by real-time pulsing between 50 and 95% of compressed air and increase the efficiency by more power
