Before a rocket ever leaves the pad, ground base systems have to confirm that every propellant valve and umbilical release is in the correct position, and that the power feeding the vehicle stays clean under massive load. Vishay's Hall effect position sensors track valve and mechanism position precisely enough to trust a go / no-go call. WSL Power Metal Strip® resistors handle the other half, monitoring high current ground power feeds accurately enough to catch a fault before it reaches the vehicle.

Behind every countdown is The DNA of tech.®
