Microvalves in space

Anyone who has ever pumped up a bicycle tyre is familiar with classic valves. However, the microvalves of the company Staiger have little in common with those: Satellites use tiny rockets whose propellant is released by a Staiger microvalve.
The necessary impulse here is very fine, comparable to the wing beat of a mosquito.

Where are microvalves used?

Microvalves find their place in many different areas and are an integral part of our everyday life. These miniaturised valves are also frequently installed in places where you would not initially expect them.
