Purpose

An Airlock is a powered Portal suitable for use in constructing an airlock chamber. Guide (Airlock) provides additional information regarding the function, construction, and operation of airlocks.

Characteristics

• It can withstand a Pressure differential of 1MPA.
• It consumes 25W of Power per Tick.
• It has a separate Power Port and Data Port.
• It has a keypad on both sides.
• It has indicator lights.
• If unlocked, it can be manually operated using a Crowbar regardless of its power state.
• If enslaved by a regular or a advanced airlock circuit, it cannot be operated manually.

User Interface

An Airlock provides the following user interface:

Name	Type	Function
Keypad	Keypad	Opens or closes the door as long as it has power
Lock	Indicator	Turns red when locked and green when unlocked

Settings

An Airlock has no settings.

Construction

An Airlock is constructed using 1 x Kit (Airlock), 2 x Steel Sheets, and 2 x Plastic Sheets.

You must first place the Kit (Airlock) by right clicking and selecting the unobstructed area. After the kit is placed, you will use a welding torch with 2 Steel Sheets in your other hand to complete stage 2. To finalize the airlock, you must use your crowbar with 2 Plastic Sheets in your other hand.

Deconstruction

An Airlock can be deconstructed in 3 stages. You will first use your angle grinder to take off the 2 x Plastic Sheets. You will then use your hand drill to remove the 2 x Steel Sheets. Finally to remove the airlock, you will use your wrench to receive the 1 x Kit (Airlock).
