Kit: The item used to build the component. All of these items are manufactured with a Hydraulic Pipe Bender or Fabricator.

Input/Output: "Generic" connections are pipe fittings that are not explicitly for input or output. "Space" indicates an interface to fluids that are not contained in pipes (e.g., the atmosphere or the contents of a room). "Clamp-on" components have no fittings of their own; they clamp onto an existing Straight Pipe.

One-way: Does the component prevent fluid from flowing the wrong way, from output to input?

Switched: Does it prevent all flow when switched off or unpowered? Except where noted, switched components can be switched either manually or using logic circuits.

Compressor: Will it actively increase pressure in the output and decrease pressure in the input? If no, the component only allows pressure to change toward equilibrium between input and output, or it does not enable any pressure changes.

Note 1: While the Pipe Gas Mixer will actively compress from output to input, it will stop when either input is empty, to preserve the mix ratio.

Note 2: The Wall Cooler's one-way, switched, and "compressor" qualities apply only to the heat exchange. It does not directly affect the pressure or flow in its attached pipe.
