3 CONTRACT DESCRIPTION

3.1 Magnetometer Description

The Magnetometer instrument (Mag) suite consists of two magnetometer sensor units (each containing a three-axis magnetic field sensor), up to two electronic unit(s) and the associated interconnecting cables. Having two magnetometer sensors provides risk reduction against excessive magnetic contamination from the observatory, with separation between the sensors to allow observability between the ambient magnetic field and the observatory magnetic field. It is expected that the magnetometer sensors will be mounted on a deployable boom provided by the L1 Series spacecraft contractor with a minimum separation distance between the sensors of one meter. The exact location, mounting configuration and distances between the sensors and the electronics will be negotiated between the magnetometer contractor and the spacecraft contractor in order to develop the required interface control documents for the magnetometer.

The term “Magnetometer Instrument” or suite includes the magnetometer sensors, electronics, cabling between sensors and electronics, up to the spacecraft provided interface. The “Magnetometer Electronics” includes the electronic components and may consist of a single box for both sensor units or two separate boxes, one for each sensor unit. Each “Magnetometer Sensor” includes a tri-axial sensor. The “Magnetometer Harness” includes the Magnetometer Instrument supplier provided harness and cabling necessary to connect each electronics/sensor pair.

The Magnetometer contract includes the delivery of two (2) flight magnetometer suites (where a single magnetometer suite is comprised of (2) flight sensors, (1) or (2) flight electronics unit and the flight harness(es) between the instrument boxes), one (1) Engineering Development Unit (EDU) magnetometer suite, and enough spares and built-up sub-assemblies for two additional FM sensors, an electronics unit and harnesses.

3.2 Ground Support Equipment Description

The Mag contract includes the delivery of (2) sets of the Electrical System Test Equipment (ESTE), (4) Magnetometer Emulators (MAGEs), and (1) One Ground Processing Development System (GPDS). Additionally, Mechanical Ground Support Equipment (MGSE) such as lifting fixtures/handles, shipping containers, drill templates, test fixtures, non-flight protective covers, etc. are included in the delivery. Electrical Ground Support Equipment includes, but is not limited to, test cables and break-out boxes.

The Magnetometer suite delivery includes ground support equipment required to power and operate the magnetometers at the vendor’s and spacecraft contractor’s facilities. The delivery also includes a standalone emulator that will interface to a spacecraft simulator for the purposes of interface testing, operations product development, and training.

Ground Support Equipment is necessary to operate the instrument during spacecraft testing.

Supplying this equipment is considered part of the delivery for the instrument. More information is provided in the Contract Deliverables Requirements List (CDRL).

4 FUNCTIONAL/PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS

This section defines the functional and performance requirements for the L1 Series Magnetometer.

The requirements in this Specification pertain to the Magnetometer "system", which may include all instrument hardware, software, and ground processing algorithms.

Table 2 Factors of Safety 1,2

Type Static Sine Random/Acoustic 4,5 Metallic Yield 1.253 1.25 1.6 Metallic Ultimate 1.43 1.4 1.8 Stability Ultimate 1.4 1.4 1.8 Beryllium Yield 1.4 1.4 1.8 Beryllium Ultimate 1.6 1.6 2.0 Composite Ultimate 1.5 1.5 1.9 Bonded Inserts/Joints Ultimate 1.5 1.5 1.9
