The11D428A-16(manufacturer's nameRDMT-135M) is aliquidpressure-fedrocket engineburningN2O4/UDMHwith anO/Fof 1.85. It is used for crew-ratedspacecraft propulsionapplications. It is currently used in theKTDU-80spacecraft propulsion module. The previous version, the11D428A(manufacturer's nameRDMT-135) is still used as thereaction control systemthrusters of theZvezdaISSmodule. The 11D428A-16 generates 129.16 N (29.04 lbf) of thrust with a chamber pressure of 0.88 MPa (128 psi) and achieves aspecific impulseof 291 s (2.85 km/s). It is rated for 500,000 starts with a certified ignition time of 0.03 seconds to 2000 seconds. Each unit weights 1.5 kg (3.3 lb).
Versions
[edit]This engine has been used with certain variations in thecrewedRussian space programsince theSalyut 6inSoviettimes. The three main versions are:[4]
- 11D428:Delivered in 1970 for use inSalyut 1.
- 11D428M:Version developed for theYantar-2Kplatform. It reached space on the first launch,Kosmos 697on August 6, 1974.
- 11D428A(AKARDMT-135): Version developed for theSoyuz 7K-S,it flew onKosmos 670,Kosmos 772andKosmos 869.Later used on theKTDU-426.[5]
- 11D428A-10:Thruster used on theZvezda ISS Module.Originally developed for theMir Core Module.
- 11D428A-14:Thruster used on the Zvezda ISS module.
- 11D428A-16(AKARDMT-135M): Improved specific impulse version. Used on theKTDU-80sinceSoyuz TM-28.[6]
- 11D428AF-16:Thruster version developed for theFobos-Gruntplanetary sample mission.
