Resumo

Results of applying a method of multi-portion weight measuring for refilling tanks of the Fregat upper stage at the Guiana Space Center are presented. The equipment and a program-algorithmic system were developed to execute this method. The capability of refilling upper stage tanks with error 0.04–0.08% is experimentally proved. In 2009–2015, there were 11 successful refillings on the equipment.
