Upon reaching orbit, the satellite was assigned its Kosmos designation, and received the International Designator 1974-012A. The North American Aerospace Defense Command assigned it the catalogue number 07211.
Kosmos 634 was the sixty-ninth of seventy nine DS-P1-Yu satellites to be launched, and the sixty-third of seventy two to successfully reach orbit. It was operated in an orbit with a perigee of, an apogee of, 70.9 degrees of inclination, and an orbital period of 91.9 minutes. It remained in orbit until it decayed and reentered the atmosphere on 9 October 1974.
