This is a quick reference to the various components of a piped-fluid network.

Component Kit Inputs Outputs One-way? Switched? Compressor? Max. Power Primary Function
Pipe (various shapes) Pipes 2-6 generic No No No - Provide a pathway.
Pipe Valve Pipe Valve 2 generic No Manual No - Open/close flow manually.
Pipe Digital Valve Pipe Digital Valve 2 generic No Yes No 25W Open/close flow using logic circuits.
Pipe Volume Pump Pipe Volume Pump 1 1 Yes Yes Yes 800W, varies Pump fluid at adjustable rate.
Pressure Regulator Pressure Regulator 1 1 Yes Yes Yes 100W Achieve target pressure at output.
Back Pressure Regulator Pressure Regulator 1 1 Yes Yes Yes 100W Achieve target pressure at input.
Pipe Gas Mixer Pipe Gas Mixer 2 1 Yes Yes Yes1 100W Combine two input mixes into one output mix, at an adjustable ratio.
Filtration Kit (Atmospherics) 1 2 Yes Yes Yes 5W Separate an input mix into a pure output and a "leftover" output.
Electrolyzer Kit (Atmospherics) 1 1 Yes Yes Yes 1,400W From input H2O, output mixed O2 and Volatiles.
Air Conditioner Kit (Atmospherics) 1 2 Yes Yes Yes 7,000W, varies Heat or cool a fluid: From input, split heat between right-temperature and wrong-temperature outputs.
Wall Cooler Wall Cooler space 1 Yes, for heat2 Yes, for heat2 Yes, for heat2  ? Actively remove heat from a space into a pipe.
Active Vent Active Vent 1 pipe, 1 space Yes, reversable Yes Yes 100W Pump pressure between a space and a pipe.
Passive Vent Passive Vent 1 pipe, 1 space No No No - Equalize pressure between a space and a pipe.
Gas Tank Storage kit x x 1w switch comp 100W function
Tank (Large and Small) kit x x 1w switch comp 100W function
Tank Connector kit x x 1w switch comp 100W function

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

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? All 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.
