SI-300 is the extended version of the SI-200 platform which has flight heritage from RazakSAT of Malaysia and DubaiSAT-1 of UAE. Its architecture is designed to accommodate an Earth observation and/or science payload. Hall Effect Propulsion System (HEPS) is installed for orbit control and maintenance. Accurate and agile three-axis attitude control supports precise imaging operations. Dual redundancies are adapted where necessary in the system architecture design to increase reliability of the satellite system.
SI-300 platform, whose size is 1.5 m in diameter and 1.95 m in height, features deck-and-longeron type structure permitting easy assembly and disassembly. Li-ion Battery and four deployable solar panels are equipped for power supply. The interface with the launch vehicle is made through an adapter bolted to the bottom of the structure.
