Résumé

The first Meteosat second generation satellite is planned to be launched in 2000. As the first generation of the Meteosat satellites, it is mainly an Infra-Red and Visible Imager. The cooling of the experiment is provided by a passive radiator facing the deep cold space. In the frame of this program, CSL is in charge of the testing of four different parts of the payload, with different thermal environments' and cooling systems. Three of these tests have already been performed successfully. From the facility point of view, the authors present in this article the relevant testing philosophies used to meet the specifications, the related problems, solutions and results.
