This also destroys gasses and isn't insulated, but it reduces gas mixing significantly.
#Oxygen not included water lock manual
There's also one I use early on, which is two sideways manual airlock doors stacked, surrounded by two mechanical powered doors. This provides insulation (as it destroys gasses between the doors) and there's very little mixing. The end doors have pressure sensors that detect the door weight, and feed to an AND gate which opens the center door on a filter. If you don't mind a tiny bit of mixing and gas destruction, you can use a triple powered mechanical door. I have used them, but haven't extensively tested. These airlocks can be reversed upside-down and hydrogen used with no debuff and no issues with water disappearing, but can get issues with pressure. Also, it can have a simple drop of water on the step, like the minimalistic ones. The problem with this is the "soaking wet" debuff. This one is a monstrosity, but will not fail you (the center space is a vacuum). The door will lock if any of the water seals break.Īs above, the gap between the airlocks must be vacuum.įor somewhat easier construction, and also as a fail safe, a door can be added and locked if the water locks break:Ĭlosing and opening the door with the water locks in place creates a vacuum. This can be achieved by building and deconstructing tiles, or using mini pumps:įor mission critical uses, one could add a fail-safe mechanism: The gap between the liquids must be vacuum. I did read these can break as well when dups pass without an exosuit and exhale CO2, didn't try them myself. A door can be added as a fail-safe and it will not cause the liquid to move after it has settled (usually around 300 grams).īest looking by far, and no slowdown for dups, but much harder to build. Other times they held for hundreds of cycles. These do can break, especially if various liquids come into contact with water, I've seen some fail in my runs but not 100% sure why. It's super easy to build with a bottle emptier and some mopping: Classic water based airlockīasic airlock, functional but honestly an eyesore.Ĭan be based on a single drop of water with only a few grams. Simple "airlock", gases will mix instantly. 38 Oxygen Not Included Tutorial Guide (2018) 4 Liquid Lock & Infinite Water Bathroom. Observe Meter should read '0' within two minutes. Place the probe into the 'Zero Oxygen' solution. Calibrate your DO probe as you normally would. Stir slowly-avoid 'tornadoes' slowly pour into a BOD bottle.

Zero oxygen check (response check) Dissolve 0.5-1 grams of sodium sulfite (Na 2 SO 3) in 300 mL of lab reagent water. I haven't found one that is perfect in all regards. 35 Oxygen Not Included Tutorial: Water Management. A good airlock should be easy to build, not break accidentally, minimal in size, not slow down the dups and sometimes 100% heat insulated. Many of my rooms are 4 tiles tall, so I wanted to see how the airlocks fit inside the room/entrance. I used water in the demos, but oil and petroleum are best for hot/cold temperatures. I find airlocks very useful, and wanted to create a summary of the best ones.
