Description

The Portable Tank is used to store gasses. It has a higher volume than the Gas Canister or Gas Canister (Smart).

The "standard pressure" when spawned is defined as 8106 kPa, or 80 Earth Atmospheres. The maximum pressure for the tank is 10.132 MPa, or 100 atmospheres. Overpressurizing the tank will cause it to explode. Once the maximum pressure is reached the tank starts taking damage until it bursts. This allows the Portable Tank to exceed the pressure rating temporarily.

Usage

The Portable Tank can be connected/disconnected to pipe networks using a Tank Connector, by placing the tank on the connector and then interacting with it using a Wrench. It can also be connected (and disconnected) to the Rover and Lander, with one Portable Tank of Oxygen nnormally spawwning on the latter.

The front of the tank features a striped area where a Gas Canister or Gas Canister (Smart) can be inserted for refilling (equalising the pressure in both canisters). There is also a variable flow rate valve on the top of the tank that can be used to vent the tank to atmosphere (or into a sealed room). Note that this valve does not need to be opended when connected to a Tannk COnnector, but the setting of the valve remains peresistant between connection and disconnection.

Notes

• If you need higher pressure (and thus higher capcity) canisters, consider using Gas Canister (Smart), which have visible display of tank pressure and a pressure capacity twice that of the standard Gas Canister.

• Default colour marking in Stationeers:

Blue	H2O (Water)
Green	N2 (Nitrogen) N2O (Nitrous Oxide)
Grey	CO2 (Carbon Dioxide) X (Poluttant)
Orange	Fuel (H2 66% + O2 34%)
Red	H2 (Hydrogen / Volitiles)
White	O2 (Oxygen) Air (as defined in-game as O2 25% + N2 75%)
Yellow	Stock colour after manufacturing (Empty)

• Other common (player) colour markings in Stationeers:

Black	X (Pollutant, replacing Grey)
Khaki	Air (as defined in-game as O2 25% + N2 75%, replacing White) Air 20/80 (Earth Standard, less 1% Argon) Nitrox 35/65 (alternate breatable mixture)
Pink	Hydroponic Air (any breatahable mix with also including >2% CO2)
Purple	Exhaust Gas (any High Pressure / Temperature mix including X and CO2)
Brown	Body-specific Atmospheric Gas
Yellow	Waste / Exhaled Gas (per default Waste Canister)

• Note that Stationeers Gas Standards vary compared to those used on Earth, as listed on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bottled_gas#Specific_gases
