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.

	~~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]].~~		* 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==
Exchanges heat between two pipe netowrks. 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?).

== Notes ==
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]].
