CubeSat Kit™ Fixed Solar Panels
Flight Hardware | Flight Qualified | Space Proven
Since their debut in 2008, over 600 Pumpkin Modular Deployable Solar Array System (PMDSAS) solar panels have enjoyed a 100% success rate on-orbit, from LEO all the way to GTO.
0.031in/0.8mm thick fixed solar panels for CubeSat Kit™. The result is the highest-quality and often lightest solar panels available on the market today. Pumpkin's proprietary PMDSAS construction methods ensure an extremely robust panel, that withstands launch loads and vibration like it's not even there.
Every single panel undergoes a vacuum bakeout, followed by a comprehensive irradiance test to ensure proper operation.
Over the years, PMDSAS panels have seamless migrated from triple-junction cells that started around 28% AM0 efficiency and are now at better than 32% AM0 efficiency.
Refer to PMDSAS Design Guidelines for more details.
For non-standard panel thicknesses, use Pumpkin's custom solar panel offerings.
