LIFECYCLE ENGINEERING

Deepvac supports thermal vacuum and space simulation infrastructure throughout the system lifecycle. Available activities include concept development, system design, manufacturing support, installation, commissioning, maintenance, modernization, and long-term technical support.

CUSTOM SYSTEM DELIVERY

Services can include application-specific thermal vacuum systems, special test setups, chamber concepts, mechanical design, thermal plates, cryogenic shrouds, custom control systems, modular upgrades, and turnkey system delivery. The exact technical and commercial scope is defined for each project.

RETROFIT AND MODERNIZATION

Existing and legacy thermal vacuum systems can be upgraded independently of the original chamber manufacturer, subject to documentation, system access, component compatibility, and a technical safety assessment.

Modernization activities can cover control systems, thermal subsystems, vacuum equipment, sensors, instrumentation, process interfaces, data acquisition, and obsolete components. Retrofit projects can combine new subsystems with reusable parts of the existing installation.

CONTROL, DATA AND AUTOMATION

Deepvac develops PLC-based control systems, HMI applications, automation sequences, test recipes, ramp-and-soak profiles, alarm logic, and equipment interlocks.

Control projects can include structured data acquisition, data logging, process visualization, reports, dashboards, remote monitoring, and integration with the customer's test infrastructure. Remote functions are implemented according to the agreed IT, access, and cybersecurity requirements.

ENGINEERING AND SUBSYSTEM INTEGRATION

Integration services can cover chamber assemblies, fixtures, support structures, feedthroughs, sensors, thermocouples, and electrical, gas, and fluid interfaces.

Additional equipment can include internal cameras, thermal-imaging systems, residual gas analyzers, quartz crystal microbalances, vacuum instrumentation, thermal-control hardware, LN₂ or GN₂ systems, and mechanical refrigeration components. Component selection and interface design are adapted to the application.

TESTING, COMMISSIONING AND OPERATIONS

Available services include thermal vacuum test-campaign support, equipment commissioning, FAT and SAT support, operator training, test documentation, reports, and dashboards.

The division of responsibilities for test definition, execution, monitoring, data evaluation, and formal acceptance is agreed before the project. Test standards, facility requirements, test-article interfaces, and required documentation are defined for each campaign.

MAINTENANCE AND TROUBLESHOOTING

Lifecycle services include preventive and corrective maintenance, repairs, chamber cleaning, contamination monitoring and mitigation support, fault analysis, thermal troubleshooting, vacuum troubleshooting, spare-parts support, and project-specific service agreements.

OPTIONAL INTELLIGENT FUNCTIONS

Optional control and data projects can include test analytics, condition-monitoring concepts, remote access, and advanced control optimization. AI-supported functions are developed and validated according to the agreed use case, available data, and system requirements.

Service scope is configured around the customer's new or existing thermal vacuum system, test objectives, interfaces, documentation, and site requirements. Projects can combine system design, mechanical integration, PLC and HMI development, thermal and vacuum upgrades, sensor and feedthrough integration, test support, commissioning, operator training, maintenance, and remote monitoring.

Optional elements can include custom fixtures, support structures, internal cameras, thermal imaging, RGA or QCM integration, dashboards, and AI-supported analytics concepts.

The included work packages, hardware, travel, on-site activities, documentation, acceptance testing, and any additional costs are defined in the project-specific quotation and statement of work.

Not applicable as a direct service characteristic. These services concern ground-based thermal vacuum and space simulation infrastructure. The supplied company overview does not identify named missions or publicly releasable flight heritage.

This is an engineering and lifecycle service rather than a standardized manufactured product. Where projects include hardware, Deepvac can design and integrate chamber assemblies, fixtures, support structures, thermal components, feedthroughs, sensors, electrical interfaces, gas and fluid connections, cameras, and diagnostic equipment.

Projects may also include custom PLC and HMI systems, vacuum and thermal subsystem upgrades, installation, commissioning, and acceptance support. Component selection, manufacturing scope, interfaces, documentation, and acceptance criteria are agreed for each project.

The services are intended to support thermal vacuum and space simulation infrastructure used in development, verification, and qualification workflows. Available activities include system engineering, test-campaign support, FAT and SAT support, commissioning, operator training, alarm and interlock implementation, test documentation, reports, and dashboards.

The supplied company overview does not state accreditation to ISO/IEC 17025, certification to a specific product standard, or compliance with a named ECSS, ISO, DIN, EN, ASTM, NASA, or military test standard. Applicable standards, customer procedures, calibration requirements, acceptance criteria, responsibilities, and documentation must therefore be defined for each project.
