{{Item
 |bgcolor1 = #cce6ff
 |bgcolor2 = #99ccff
 |name = Air Alarm
 |image = AirAlarm.png
 |foundin = Every room with atmospherics
 |usedfor = Sniffing the atmospheric status near it, sending alerts if something isn't right and controlling the room's vents and scrubbers
 |strategy = Install it in a room wall and it'll find the vents and scrubbers in the room automatically
 |description = To use an Air Alarm, first swipe your [[File:Id_regular.png|link=ID card]] [[ID card]] across it to unlock it. Then click the Air Alarm with a free hand to access it's control panel.

  |Control panel options:
|'''Activate Atmosphere Alarm''': The alarm will show on atmospheric alert computers and alerts silicons.


'''Panic Siphon''': Disables all vents in the area and quickly drains all gases.


'''Vent Controls''': Changes the settings of vents in the area:
* '''''External on''', Internal off'': will drain/add air from the tile the vent is on to make it reach the selected pressure. All air being moved goes into/comes out of the pipe the vent is attached to. Set to 0 to drain air, or pressurise to specific levels.<br> Useful for precise pressure control, like room air.
* ''External off, '''Internal on''''': Drains/adds air to the tile to get the pipe attached to the selected pressure level. Setting a vent to internal and the desired pressure to 0 causes ALL gas which enters the pipe to be shunted out onto the tile.<br> Used for when you want to move gas quickly, like in the Supermatter chamber.
*'''''Both on''''': completely useless. Don't bother.


'''Scrubber Controls''': Controls the scrubbers in the area. Select specific gases to be filtered. Choose between two settings for the scrubbers, scrubbing and syphoning.
* '''Scrubbing''' filters out any gases that are selected in the '''Filters''' section.
* '''Siphoning''' indiscriminately sucks up all gases.
* '''Range''' specifies how effective the scrubbers are - on '''Normal''' range they only work on their own tile, while on '''Expanded''' they work in a 3x3 range.


'''Operating Mode''': you can select a preset mode for the scrubbers and vents in the area:
* '''''Filtering''''': Default mode, scrubbers are set to filter CO2 on their tile, vents are set to keep the area at normal pressure (101.3 kPa).
* '''''Contaminated''''': Scrubbers now filter all harmful gases in Expanded mode, vents are set to normal pressure
* '''''Draught''''': Scrubbers are set to Siphon and vents are set to twice the normal pressure.
* '''''Refill''''': Scrubbers are ON and vents are set to three times the normal pressure.
* '''''Cycle''''': Panic siphons all air, then switches to Filtering mode.
* '''''Siphon''''': Scrubbers are set to siphon, vents are OFF.
* '''''Panic Siphon''''': Scrubbers are set to siphon (Expanded), vents are OFF.
* '''''Flood''''': Emag/malfunctioning AI only. Disables scrubbers, sets vents to max output and disables their pressure checks.
* '''''Off''''': Both scrubbers and vents are OFF.


'''Alarm Threshold''': Lets you change the minimum and maximum settings for pressure and temperature to automatically trigger the alarm.

 |foundin = [[Engineering]], [[Atmospherics]], [[Mining Station]], [[E.V.A.]], [[Toxins]]
 |usedfor = Distributing air and plasma to those who need it
 |strategy = Just choose what you need
 |description =  Immovable dispenser filled with 10 [[Oxygen tank|oxygen tanks]] and 10 [[Plasma Tank|plasma tanks]] (except the ones located in E.V.A. and Mining Station have only oxygen tanks).

{{anchor|Canister}}
{{Item

 |strategy = Place around hallways, wait for [[Assistant|Assistants]] to open them for no reason
 |description = When new and before use, or when almost fully emptied, a label can be selected from its interface. This will change its color to indicate what it may contain (or fooling people into thinking it contains [[Oxygen]] and not [[Plasma]])

Can be made with 10 sheets of [[Metal]].

{{anchor|Portable Pump}}
{{Item
 |bgcolor1 = #cce6ff
 |bgcolor2 = #99ccff
 |name = Portable Pump
 |image = PortablePump.png
 |foundin = [[Locker Room]], [[Atmospherics]], Hallway outside the [[Atmospherics|Atmospherics office]]
 |usedfor = Filling a room with air. Can also be use to suck the air out of a room
 |strategy = Set the pump direction to out, set your target pressure (most likely 101.3 kPa), turn it on, and it re-pressurizes a room until its air runs out
 |description = Out with the good air. It both sucks and blows. Be sure to connect it to the blue ports outside [[Atmospherics]] to fill it up with delicious air mix beforehand.

 |bgcolor2 = #99ccff
 |name = Portable Scrubber
 |image = PortableScrubber.png
 |foundin = [[Locker Room]], [[Atmospherics]], Hallway outside the [[Atmospherics|Atmospherics office]]
 |usedfor = Cleaning the air from [[Plasma|Plasma gas]] and other unwanted gasses. Also used for emptying [[Plasma Tank]]s and [[Oxygen Tank]]s
 |strategy = Pull it to the leak, put it on maximum power and turn it on
 |description = In with the bad air. Flip it on to filter out the bad gases very slowly. Connect it to the red ports outside [[Atmospherics]] to empty it out once it's full. Make sure you also re-fill the area with clean oxygen.

 |description = Made by the Space Amish, it can reliably heat up a room to livable temperature. Uses a [[Power Cell]] to function. All Space Heaters come default with a 1000 watt power cell -- keep it in mind if you need a free cell.

  |List of dispensable items:
  |'''Pipes:'''
*'''Regular pipes''': The station is infested with these things and you want to add MORE!? Place down manual valves to crush the hopes and dreams of any would-be plasma flooding AI. 

'''Devices:'''
*'''Connector''': Used to attach canisters, pumps or scrubbers to a pipe network. If you can't get a pipe network easily to the filter loop, an empty canister can be a good substitute.
*'''Unary vent''' - See: Vent. Once placed down it will have to be turned on by activating it at an Air alarm terminal.
*'''Gas pump''': The basic pumps you'll find all over Atmospherics. Good for precise pressure levels. Goes up to 4500 kPa.
*'''Passive gate''': Think of it as a one-way manual valve, but electronic. Doesn't pump gas, but lets certain pressure through. Can let up to 4500 kPa pressure through. It should be noted that its on status can be easy to miss, being just a small red/green light.
*'''Volume pump''': A bit like the gas pump, but pumps via volume rather than going for pressure. 200 l/s (~9000 kPa) is its max output. Faster than a gas pump (you can fill canisters up past the standard 4500 kPa pressure!), so best used in systems where precise pressure isn't needed (such as anything to do with the waste loop).
*'''Scrubber''': Self explanatory, scrubs the nasty out of things, or acts like a vacuum. Like unary vents, needs to be turned on by an Air alarm terminal after wrenched into place.
*'''Meter''': Wanna know how much gas (and its temperature) is in a pipe? Use these.
*'''Gas Filter''': Them big ol' blocks of things that ring Atmosia, takes certain gasses out. Filters them, if you will.
*'''Gas Mixer''': Like a filter, but mixes gasses instead of filters. There is one in Atmosia that mixes nitrogen and oxygen.

'''Heat Exchange:'''
*'''Pipes''': H/E pipes transfer temperatures between the environment and gas within'. Besides looking spiffy, you can place some in space to super-duper cool gasses, or create a burning length of death pipe.
*'''Junction''': Turn that regular pipe network into a H/E network, and back again! After all, you have to get that gas safely into space ''somehow''!
*'''Heat Exchanger''': These strange and esoteric devices equalize the temperature between two pipe networks without actually mixing the gasses. To use, place them facing each other. (So you're going to need at LEAST a 1 X 4 area to set this up.)

{{anchor|Disposal Pipe Dispenser}}
{{Item
 |bgcolor1 = #cce6ff
 |bgcolor2 = #99ccff
 |name = Disposal Pipe Dispenser
 |image = PipeDispenser.png
 |foundin = [[Atmospherics]]
 |usedfor = Making disposal pipes and other disposal equipment. Mostly used for repairs or making experimental transit-systems
 |strategy = Dispose of <strike>the entire waste system</strike> extra pipes you dispense by dragging them onto the disposal unit
 |description = Using a [[File:Wrench.png|link=Wrench]] [[Wrench]] will toggle it between movable-mode and dispensing-mode.<br>
When in dispensing-mode and in a powered room, it can dispense pipes and other disposal equipment for use.<br>
Despite not being able to pick them up with your hands, you can drag the pipe onto the dispenser to dispose of extras.<br>
See [[Guide_to_construction#Pipes|information here]] how to modify the existing ones or make your own disposal pipes.
