University of Colorado Boulder: CU in Space Competition Rocket Team
Absolute Game Changer!
The Rice Hydro MTP-15-3GT has been an absolute game changer for our propulsion development at CU in Space. As a university team building high-powered hybrid rockets, safety and reliability are our top priorities, and this pump provided the exact precision we needed to proof-test our oxidizer tanks and combustion chambers to 1350 psi. The integrated three-gallon reservoir made the entire hydrostatic testing process seamless and efficient, allowing us to identify and mitigate potential failures in a controlled environment long before reaching the launch rail. We are incredibly grateful for Rice Hydro's support of student engineering; their equipment has given us the confidence that our flight hardware can handle the intense pressures of competition.
