The BHT-100 from Busek is a Spacecraft Thruster with a nominal thrust of 7 mN and a specific impulse of 1000 seconds. It is compatible with propellants such as Xenon and Iodine and has a discharge power of 100 W. The thruster has a demonstrated impulse of 45.36 kN-s and a predicted total impulse value of 250 kN-s. It provides fully integrated hall effect thruster system with cathode, power processing unit, digital control unit and propellant management systems. The thruster requires a DC supply voltage of 200 V and an operating power range of 109 to 158 W. It has a thruster mass of 1.16 Kg and measures 5.5 x 8 cm (L x D). This thruster is ideal for high-power space propulsion solutions for CubeSats and small satellites.
