== Description ==
The Mining Charge is a timed explosive that can be used to destroy terrain or mine ores.

== Use ==
Hold the Mining Charge and activate it to arm and drop the charge. It will explode after 10 seconds. Picking up the charge or activating the lever will reset the fuse.

== Notes ==
* The explosion power/radius seems to be the same as the [[Demolition Charge]], just with a timed explosion instead of remotely triggered detonation.
* The mining charge will explode immediately if destroyed while armed (such as by fire).

Thermal Convection and Radiation Values

2026-02-08T00:32:30Z

Banangecko: /* Heat Exchangers */ fixed super large heat exchanger link/image

This is a collection of thermal convection, radiation, and solar heating values for easy comparison to one another.

===Pipe Network===
Note that all equivalent liquid structures have the same values as their gas counterparts, except for the [[Kit (Liquid Radiator)| ''Liquid Pipe Convection Radiator'']] which is listed separately.<br>
Insulated tanks, pipes and in-line tanks have zero for all values.<br>
Solar heating does not seem to apply to pipe-mounted radiators.

===Heat Exchangers===
Heat exchangers are different from most other atmospheric devices because they operate between pipe networks instead of an internal volume and outside atmosphere. Heat transfer between two networks follows the same rules as thermal convection.

==Description==
<blockquote><q> Direct Heat Exchangers equalize the temperature of the two input networks. </q><br>
'''- Stationpedia'''</blockquote>
Exchanges heat between two pipe networks. It's next upgrade is the [[Kit (Large Direct Heat Exchanger)‏‎|Large Direct Heat Exchanger]]. <br>

==Usage==
The kit produces 3 versions, gas to gas, liquid to gas and liquid to liquid. Each version has 2 pipe connections for pipe atmospheres whose contents' heat will be exchanged. The heat exchanger itself does not have an internal volume and instead acts directly on the input pipe networks. A meter on the side displays the heat exchange rate in joules (per tick).

==Heat Exchange==
Heat flows from hot to cold, flowing faster the greater the temperature difference. For small heat exchangers the rate will follow 100 joules/tick per degree celcius of difference.
== Notes ==
* Can be placed in any orientation
* Gas in the pipe does not need to be flowing to exchange heat effectively. Stationeers treats each pipe network as one object, so cooling one end of a pipe will immediately cool everywhere else in the pipe.

==Description==
<blockquote><q> Direct Heat Exchangers equalize the temperature of the two input networks. </q><br>
'''- Stationpedia'''</blockquote>
Exchanges heat between two pipe networks very quickly. Comes in two variants, large and super large, which both act as bulkier upgrades to the [[Kit (Small Direct Heat Exchanger)‏‎|Small Direct Heat Exchanger]]. It's temperature-swapping counterpart is the [[Kit (Counterflow Heat Exchanger)‏‎|Counterflow Heat Exchanger]]. <small><sub>pun intended</sub></small>
==Usage==
It's purpose is to equalize the temperature of two pipe networks without allowing their contents to mix. <br>
The heat exchanger does not have an internal volume and instead transfers heat directly between the two input pipe networks. A meter on the side displays the surface area and heat exchange rate in joules per tick.
===Heat Transfer===
Heat will flow from warmer to colder at a rate that increases with a greater difference in temperature. Newton's law of cooling can be used to approximate the rate of heat transfer according to the equation:<br>

==Description==
<blockquote><q> Direct Heat Exchangers equalize the temperature of the two input networks. </q><br>
'''- Stationpedia'''</blockquote>
Exchanges heat between two pipe networks very quickly, ~10x as fast as the [[Kit (Small Direct Heat Exchanger)‏‎|Small Direct Heat Exchanger]]. It's counterpart is the [[Kit (Counterflow Heat Exchanger)‏‎|Counterflow Heat Exchanger]]. <small><sub>pun intended</sub></small>
==Usage==
It's purpose is to equalize the temperature of two pipe networks without allowing their contents to mix. <br>
The heat exchanger does not have an internal volume and instead transfers heat directly between the two input pipe networks. A meter on the side displays the heat exchange rate in joules per tick.
===Heat Transfer===
Heat will flow from warmer to colder at a rate that increases with a greater difference in temperature. Newton's law of cooling can be used to approximate the rate of heat transfer according to the equation:<br>
Rate = h*A*(T<sub>1</sub>-T<sub>2</sub>)<br>

Thermal Convection and Radiation Values

2025-12-24T00:21:43Z

Banangecko: Added heat exchanger table referenced external links

This is a collection of thermal convection, radiation, and solar heating values for easy comparison to one another.

===Pipe Network===
Note that all equivalent liquid structures have the same values as their gas counterparts, except for the [[Kit (Liquid Radiator)| ''Liquid Pipe Convection Radiator'']] which is listed separately.<br>
Insulated tanks, pipes and in-line tanks have zero for all values.<br>
Solar heating does not seem to apply to pipe-mounted radiators.

==Description==
{{description| Exchange heat from one pipe network to another. By drawing down the pressure of the outputs with a pump or regulator and regulating input pressures, the temperatures of the two counterflowing networks can be effectively exchanged. <br>
Balancing the throughput of both inputs is key to creating a good exchange of temperatures.}}

Swaps the temperature of two input fluids, how well it does this depends on the relative flow rate of each input.<br>
Perfect temperature exchange is thermodynamically impossible, and doesn't happen in stationeers either. The two connections on the top are part of network 1, and the two on the bottom are part of network 2. A meter on the side displays the heat exchange rate in joules per tick as well as the throughput of input 1 and 2 in moles per tick.
==Usage==
1. The intended use case for a counterflow heat exchanger is when you have two fluids with the same thermal mass flowing at the same rate in opposite directions. In this condition the heat exchanger will swap the temperatures of the two input fluids and send them to their outputs, possibly off by a few degrees. See first [[Kit (Counterflow Heat Exchanger)#Setup|example]]. <br>
*This can be useful for phase change cooling loops to warm the evaporated phase before it is condensed and to cool the condensed phase before it is evaporated, improving efficiency.
<br>
2. They are also commonly used as a more effective heat exchanger that can take greater advantage of a coolant's thermal energy and keep a consistant temperature in a pipe network. In this case fluid properties and flow rate are not the same.<br>
*Say you have a 20C coolant flow trying to cool down a trickle of hot waste gas down to 20C. As long as the flow ''(or thermal mass)'' of the coolant is much greater than the waste gas, the output temperature of the waste gas will always be very close to the coolant. If using the [[Kit (Large Direct Heat Exchanger)|Direct heat exchanger]] instead, the temperature would spike every time more hot gas was introduced to the network before cooling down to the temperature of the coolant again. See second [[Kit (Counterflow Heat Exchanger)#Setup|example]].<br>
<br>

===Setup===
* Example temperature differences are exaggerated, usually the input 1 and output 2 temperatures get very close, within tenths of a degree.
Example showing how the two inputs can effectively exchange their temperatures in ideal conditions.<br>
[[File:Counter flow example diagram.png|Example of how to set up a counterflow heat exchanger]]<br>
<br>
Example showing how the initial temperature of network 1 determines the output temperature of network 2, when flowrate / thermal mass is skewed heavily in favor of network 1.<br>
[[File:Counter flow example 2 diagram.png|Example of how to set up a counterlow heat exchanger to consistently cool hot gas]]<br>

== Notes ==
* It has no logic port
* Requires frame support
* In older versions, [[Kit (Heat Exchanger)|heat exchangers]] had 2 inputs and 2 outputs intended for active liquid flow, but the heat swapping mechanic wasn't fleshed out. This eventually became the '''counterflow heat exchanger''' after the [[Update v0.2.4294.19984|Airflow update]].

== Description == 
<blockquote><q> The [[Norsec (Faction)|Norsec]] Wireless Power Transmitter is an uni-directional, A-to-B, far field microwave electical transmission system. The rotatable base transmitter delivers a narrow, non-lethal microwave beam to a dedicated base receiver.<br>

The transmitter must be aligned to the base station in order to transmit any power. The brightness of the transmitter's collimator arc provides an indication of transmission intensity. Note that there is an attrition over longer ranges, so the unit requires more power over greater distances to deliver the same output. </q><br> '''- Stationpedia'''</blockquote>

==General behaviour==
*5kW is the maximum PowerPotential that can be transmitted, this amount is reduced by distance.
*Unaffected by storms.
*Using two emitters on the same receiver doesn't appear to work
*A Logic Transmitter can mirror receivers, but not emitters.
*The coordinates of these devices will change slightly when the head moves.
*Both structures and terrain will block the beam. Once a beam is formed it will no longer be blocked by building things between them.
*When these devices are built their placement rotation is important. The easiest way is to point the data-port to the west (270° on the space suit compass), otherwise a horizontal correction angle must be added or subtracted when doing the math.
*When the device head is being rotated horizontally it is rotating in the opposite of the expected direction, this must be compensated for when doing the math.

==Range==
===Power transfer with 4000 W PowerPotential===
98m = 3630 W (-0.37kW)
<br>198m = 2863 W (-1.14kW)
<br>300m = 1409 W (-2.59kW)
<br>400m = 0 W

===Power transfer with 5000 W PowerPotential===
98m = 4630 W (-0.37kW)
<br>198m = 3863 W (-1.14kW)
<br>300m = 2409 W (-2.59kW)
<br>400m = 651 W (-4.35kW)

==Alignment formulas==
All data ports point west, the delta values are calculated from: "receiver coordinate" - "emitter coordinate"

Horizontal for "emitter" = atan2( delta-x / delta-z ) * 180 / pi
<br>Vertical for "emitter" = 90 + atan( delta-y / sqrt( (delta-z)^2 + (delta-x)^2 ) ) * 180 / pi

Horizontal for "receiver" = 180 + Horizontal for "emitter"
<br>Vertical for "receiver" = 180 - Vertical for "emitter"

Comments:
<br>When the data-port points west, +0° is added to the Horizontal rotation.
<br>When the Vertical rotation is 90° the device head points towards the horizon, 90° must be added because when delta-y is 0 (no height difference) then atan() will be 0
<br>Both atan2() and atan() uses radians for the angle, radians are converted to degrees by multiplying with 180 / pi
<br>atan2(x/z) should be z/x in a normal situation, but it has been inverted to compensate for the devices inverted rotation direction
<br>atan(y/x) uses Pythagoras theorem to set x as the horizontal-plane distance between emitter and receiver

==Description== 
Used to cool or warm the gasses within pipes. These are the cheapest radiators, with the next upgrade being the [[Medium Radiator]].

It comes in 2 flavors, selected by moving the mouse wheel;

'''Convection Radiators''' have a grill on one side of the pipe, which exchanges and balances the temperature of the gasses inside the pipe with the environment. As convection requires an environment, they have no use in a vacuum. They provide a more reliable, cheaper, but slower alternative to [[Wall Cooler]]s when used inside a station (pressurized room or collection of rooms).

'''Radiation Radiators''' add radiator sheets around the pipe, for radiating the heat into a vacuum. As they only radiate and don't capture, they can only be used to cool down the piped gasses and they do so at a much slower rate. Radiation is the only viable method of shedding excess heat without venting gasses or otherwise sacrificing resources on planets with no atmosphere.

*In an atmosphere the radiators will convert energy based on their temperature and the atmosphere.
**If the pipe has a higher temperature then they will transfer heat into the room.
**If the pipe has a lower temperature then they will receive heat from the room.
*Without an atmosphere they will radiate heat into space. Note that they will receive a little energy if the sun shines on them due to the solar constant (The ability for pipe radiators to absorb thermal energy in any environment in game is contested).
**In a vacuum on the [[Moon]] or Mimas heat will be radiated until the pipe reaches 50 Kelvin. On planets with an atmosphere, radiators that are in a vacuumed room will radiate heat until they reach the current temperature of the outside atmosphere, preventing endless free cooling.

In layman's terms you can think of the radiator as a "valve for heat". It will allow heat (but no gases!) to be exchanged between the pipe it's attached to and the surrounding environment. This "valve" will work bidirectionally (heat can flow in both directions). And heat will always flow from the hotter to the colder side.

Pipes without radiators are actually able to exchange heat with their surroundings the same way on their own, but a radiator will greatly accelerate how fast this exchange will happen. The effect of multiple radiators on the same pipe system will be cumulative, so you can speed up the transfer even more by placing more than one radiator on the same pipe system. The "shape" of the pipe system is not relevant, though. So a straight pipe with a certain amount of radiators will have the same heat exchange than a pipe of equal length (same amount of pipe segments) and equal amount of radiators, that snakes around or forms any other imaginable shape. The part of the pipe with the radiators must be free and not touch the floor or wall, even partially.

Another factor that will influence how well (and how much) heat will be transferred between the pipe/radiator and its surroundings is the gas mixture inside both the pipe and its surroundings. Gases differ in both the "speed" in which they can exchange heat and the "amount" of heat they can "absorb". Pollutants (X) for example are able to exchange heat very quickly, but the "amount" of heat they can absorb is limited. Water (H2O) on the other hand will exchange heat slower that pollutants will, but the "amount" of heat water can absorb is significantly larger (over 3 times, hence [[Kit (Liquid Radiator)|Liquid Radiators]]).

Thermal Convection and Radiation Values

2025-10-23T17:50:00Z

Banangecko: Noticed these values were missing from stationeers wiki, created page. Required some in-game testing. Will be linked by radiator pages later, but not sure where else.

This is a collection of thermal convection, radiation, and solar heating values for easy comparison to one another.

===Pipe Network===
Note that all equivalent liquid structures have the same values as their gas counterparts, except for the [[Kit (Liquid Radiator)| ''Liquid Pipe Convection Radiator'']] which is listed separately.<br>
Insulated tanks, pipes and in-line tanks have zero for all values.<br>
Solar heating does not seem to apply to pipe-mounted radiators.

==Description==
<blockquote><q> Direct Heat Exchangers equalize the temperature of the two input networks. </q><br>
'''- Stationpedia'''</blockquote>
Exchanges heat between two pipe networks very quickly, ~10x as fast as the [[Kit (Small Direct Heat Exchanger)‏‎|Small Direct Heat Exchanger]]. It's counterpart is the [[Kit (Counterflow Heat Exchanger)‏‎|Counterflow Heat Exchanger]]. <small><sub>pun intended</sub></small>
==Usage==
It's purpose is to equalize the temperature of two pipe networks without allowing their contents to mix. <br>
The heat exchanger does not have an internal volume and instead transfers heat directly between the two input pipe networks. A meter on the side displays the heat exchange rate in joules per tick.
===Heat Transfer===
Heat will flow from warmer to colder at a rate that increases with a greater difference in temperature. Newton's law of cooling can be used to approximate the rate of heat transfer according to the equation:<br>
Rate = k(T<sub>1</sub>-T<sub>2</sub>)<br>
Where: <br>
k = 425 Heat Exchange constant ''(Rough estimate)''<br>
T<sub>1</sub> = Input 1 Temperature <br>
T<sub>2</sub> = Input 2 Temperature <br>
== Notes ==
* It has no logic port
* Requires frame support, unlike the small heat exchanger
* In older versions, [[Kit (Heat Exchanger)|heat exchangers]] had 2 inputs and 2 outputs intended for active liquid flow. This feature has been consolidated in the form of the [[Kit (Counterflow Heat Exchanger)|counterflow heat exchanger]]

==Description==
<blockquote><q> Exchange heat from one pipe network to another. By drawing down the pressure of the outputs with a pump or regulator and regulating input pressures, the temperatures of the two counterflowing networks can be effectively exchanged.<br>
Balancing the throughput of both inputs is key to creating a good exchange of temperatures.</q><br>
'''- Stationpedia'''</blockquote>
Swaps the temperature of two input fluids, how well it does this depends on the relative flow rate of each input.<br>
Perfect temperature exchange is thermodynamically impossible, and doesn't happen in stationeers either. The two connections on the top are part of network 1, and the two on the bottom are part of network 2. A meter on the side displays the heat exchange rate in joules per tick as well as the throughput of input 1 and 2 in moles per tick.
==Usage==
1. The intended use case for a counterflow heat exchanger is when you have two fluids with the same thermal mass flowing at the same rate in opposite directions. In this condition the heat exchanger will swap the temperatures of the two input fluids and send them to their outputs, possibly off by a few degrees. See first [[Kit (Counterflow Heat Exchanger)#Setup|example]]. <br>
*This can be useful for phase change cooling loops to warm the evaporated phase before it is condensed and to cool the condensed phase before it is evaporated, improving efficiency.
<br>
2. They are also commonly used as a more effective heat exchanger that can take greater advantage of a coolant's thermal energy and keep a consistant temperature in a pipe network. In this case fluid properties and flow rate are not the same.<br>
*Say you have a 20C coolant flow trying to cool down a trickle of hot waste gas down to 20C. As long as the flow ''(or thermal mass)'' of the coolant is much greater than the waste gas, the output temperature of the waste gas will always be very close to the coolant. If using the [[Kit (Large Direct Heat Exchanger)|Direct heat exchanger]] instead, the temperature would spike every time more hot gas was introduced to the network before cooling down to the temperature of the coolant again. See second [[Kit (Counterflow Heat Exchanger)#Setup|example]].<br>
<br>

===Setup===
* Example temerature differences are exaggerated, usually the input 1 and output 2 temperatures get very close, within tenths of a degree.
Example showing how the two inputs can effectively exchange their temperatures in ideal conditions.<br>
[[File:Counter flow example diagram.png|Example of how to set up a counterflow heat exchanger]]<br>
<br>
Example showing how the initial temperature of network 1 determines the output temperature of network 2, when flowrate / thermal mass is skewed heavily in favor of network 1.<br>
[[File:Counter flow example 2 diagram.png|Example of how to set up a counterlow heat exchanger to consistently cool hot gas]]<br>

== Notes ==
* It has no logic port
* Requires frame support
* In older versions, [[Kit (Heat Exchanger)|heat exchangers]] had 2 inputs and 2 outputs intended for active liquid flow, but the heat swapping mechanic wasn't fleshed out. This eventually became the '''counterflow heat exchanger''' after the [[Update v0.2.4294.19984|Airflow update]].

==Description==
Exchanges heat between two pipe networks very quickly, ~10x as fast as the [[Kit (Small Direct Heat Exchanger)‏‎|Small Direct Heat Exchanger]]. It's counterpart is the [[Kit (Counterflow Heat Exchanger)‏‎|Counterflow Heat Exchanger]]. <small><sub>pun intended</sub></small>
==Usage==
It's purpose is to equalize the temperature of two pipe networks without allowing their contents to mix. <br>
The kit produces 3 versions, gas to gas, gas to liquid and liquid to liquid. Each version has 2 pipe connections for pipe atmospheres whose contents' heat will be exchanged. The heat exchanger itself does not have an internal volume and instead acts directly on the input pipe networks. A meter on the side displays the heat exchange rate in joules (per tick?).<br>
== Notes ==
* It has no logic port
* Requires frame support, unlike the small heat exchanger
* In older versions, [[Kit (Heat Exchanger)|heat exchangers]] had 2 inputs and 2 outputs intended for active liquid flow. This feature has been consolidated in the form of the [[Kit (Counterflow Heat Exchanger)|counterflow heat exchanger]]

==Description==
Exchanges heat between two pipe networks.

==Usage==
There are three variants of the heat exchanger, there are two inputs and two outputs labeled on the device itself.

Note that connections are split into pairs along the long sides. Connecting along the short sides will cause mixing between systems, while connecting along the long sides keeps the loops separate.
It also does not appear to differentiate between inputs and outputs.

==Description==
This kit is used to crush ice into liquids and/or gases. The Ice Crusher has two outputs at the back. The top port can be connected to [[Pipes]] (yellow) and the bottom port can be connected to [[Liquid Pipe]] (blue) to extract the products. The top output is for Gas outputs, and the bottom output is for Liquids. Different kinds of Ice can be crushed:
:[[Ice (Water)]] produces liquid Water and [[Nitrogen]] gas (80% water, 20% nitrogen)
:[[Ice (Oxite)]] produces [[Oxygen]] and [[Nitrogen]] gas (90% Oxygen, 10% nitrogen)
:[[Ice (Volatiles)]] produces [[Hydrogen]] gas (100% Hydrogen)
:[[Ice (Nitrice)]] produces [[Nitrogen]] and [[Nitrous_Oxide]] gas (90% Nitrogen, 10% Nitrous Oxide)

==Refilling Water Bottles Early Game==
The ice crusher can be used to get drinkable water early on, by connecting it to a [[Water Bottle Filler]] using [[Liquid Pipe]] and piping the [[Nitrogen]] out with a pump or an [[Active Vent]] to avoid blocking the ice crusher. Note however that if done inside, this could lead to pressure accumulating over time, which could be dangerous if not eventually upgraded to a more robust gas handling system.

==Notes==
* It can be safely used in higher temperature environments if the ice is transferred instantly into the crusher from the mining belt.
* When using it for crushing [[Ice (Water)]], 20% [[Nitrogen]] gas is still produced, and care must be taken to avoid overpressurization over time.
* It is insulated, so only the built in heater and the addition of gases from melting ice can change its internal temperature.
* Must be kept turned on to release the liquids and/or gases it contains.
* Has an internal capacity of 200L.
* Will not explode from overpressure of its internal capacity, but will stop crushing ice and flash an error if its internal pressure exceeds 125 MPa. It will resume crushing once its internal pressure drops below approximately 121 MPa.
* Outputs gas at a maximum rate of 9.231 MPa per tick into a single pipe segment (exactly 20 MPa into 6 pipe segments every 13 ticks), stopping once its internal pressure equals the pressure of the output port. This drops its internal pressure by 0.4615 MPa per tick.
* Can generate gas from crushing ice substantially faster than its maximum gas output rate, at a rate of approximately 5 MPa to its internal capacity per tick spent crushing ice.
* Changing the 'Setting' Value (represented in degrees kelvin) with IC/Logic circuits can dramatically speed up crushing times. For example, I changed my volatiles crusher from the default value to 273k(ice crusher are capped at 0°C/273.5k) and was able to process a stack of 50 volatiles in only 5 seconds.

==Description==
Powered vents move air and pull vacuum far more quickly than an [[Active Vent|active vent]]. Powered vents have a unique behavior to <nowiki>"scavenge"</nowiki> air from grids outside the one it's built on once the pressure is low enough (~20kpa), skipping the wait for the last few pascals of gas to diffuse into the vent.

== Powered Vent ==
<blockquote><q>Great for moving large quantities of air into a pipe network. Its primary purpose is for the creation of multi-grid airlocks. It can efficiently pull a vacuum on a small to medium sized room.</q><br>
'''- Stationpedia'''</blockquote>
By moles per tick, pulls inward ~2.04x and blows outward about 2.14x as much as an active vent.
Scavenge range 9x9x9 large grid centered on vent.

== Powered Vent Large ==
<blockquote><q>For building large scale airlock systems and pressurized hangars, a bigger and bolder version of the powered vent that can efficiently pull a vacuum in large room. </q><br>
'''- Stationpedia'''</blockquote>
By moles per tick, pulls inward ~4.14x and blows outward about 4.34x as much as an active vent.
Scavenge range 13x13x13 large grid centered on vent.

==Description==
A Kit (Composite Window Shutter) is used to build an advanced type of windows, that come with a built-in shutters, able to be closed either manually, via a shared touchpad switch, or by the use of logic. The Kit allows three different variants of the panel to be chosen for placement:
* '''Composite Window Shutter''' is the basic composite window with a manual shutter handle, which becomes accessible once the segment is fully assembled. Requires 1x [[Cable Coil]], 1x [[Plastic Sheets]], and 1x [[Glass Sheet]] to complete.
* '''Composite Window Shutter Connector''' is an inert wall section which, while not having a window panel itself, is used to connect separate Window Shutter clusters into a unified group when placed adjacent to them. Requires 4x Cable Coils, and 2x Plastic Sheets to complete. Cables has to be routed by using a [[Screwdriver]].
* '''Composite Window Shutter Controller''' is a wall section with a shutter control terminal installed in its center. By connecting this module to multiple and/or separate window shutter groups by adjacency, and through the shutter connectors panels, a player can open and close all such shutters simultaneously. A Composite Shutter Controller has two cable connections for [[Power]] and logic network, analogous to [[Portal]]s, which will supply power to all interconnected Connector and Shutter sections, and allow controlling them by attached logic signals. The control terminal comes with a touchpad state controller, power switch, and a passive LCD screen listing the connected sections. Powered Shutter Controller has a power drain of 50 W. Requires 1x Cable Coil and 1x Plastic Sheets to complete.

==Characteristics==
* All Composite Window Shutter segments can be placed both vetically and horizontally, rotated like other wall and window panels, and are airtight.
* Composite Window Shutters and Connectors has a Pressure Differential tolerance of 200 KPa, while the Controller panel has it at 300 KPa.
* Composite Window Shutters the same resistance to [[Damage]] as other Composite Walls.
* Composite Window Shutters are thinner than [[Composite Roll Cover]] and will not entirely cover the Logic elements or Pipes placed into them when closed.


==Deconstruction==
* Installed Plastic Sheets and/or Glass Sheets can be detached by using a [[Crowbar]].
* Installed Cables can be detached by using [[Wire Cutters]].
* Standing Kit frame can be recovered by using an [[Angle Grinder]].
