You are able to dispose of unwanted pipes and pumps by using them on the Pipe Dispenser.


'''Pipes:'''
{{anchor|Tank Storage Unit}}
*'''Regular pipes''': The station is infested with these thing and you want to add MORE!? Place down manual valves to crush the hopes and dreams of any would-be plasma flooding AI.
{{Item
*'''Insulated pipes''': Keeps the cold out if you're placing pipes out in space. (Regular pipes don't transfer outside heat at all from the environment, so these are pretty much regular pipes without the luxury of manifolds.)
|bgcolor1 = #cce6ff
 
|bgcolor2 = #99ccff
'''Devices:'''
|name = Tank Storage Unit
*'''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.
|image = Tank_Dispenser.png
*'''Unary vent''' - See: Vent. Once placed down it will have to be turned on by activating it at an Air alarm terminal.
|foundin = [[Engineering]], [[Atmospherics]], [[Mining Station]], [[E.V.A.]], [[Toxins]]
*'''Gas pump''': The basic pumps you'll find all over Atmospherics. Good for precise pressure levels. Goes up to 4500 kPa.
|usedfor = Distributing air and plasma to those who need it
*'''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.
|strategy = Just choose what you need
*'''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).
|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).
*'''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.)

  |foundin = [[Atmospherics]]
  |foundin = [[Emergency Storage]], [[Maintenance]], [[Atmospherics]], [[Toxins Lab]]
  |usedfor = Making disposal pipes and other disposal equipment. Mostly used for repairs or making experimental transit-systems.
  |usedfor = Used for holding and transporting gases like [[Oxygen]], [[Plasma|Plasma gas]] and the like.
  |strategy = Dispose of <strike>the entire waste system</strike> extra pipes you dispense by dragging them onto the disposal unit.
  |strategy = Place around hallways, wait for [[Assistant|Assistants]] to open them for no reason.
  |description = Using a wrench will toggle it between movable-mode and dispensing-mode.<br>
  |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]])
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>
Can be made with 10 sheets of [[Metal]].
See [[Basic_construction#Pipes|information here]] how to modify the existing ones or make your own disposal pipes.

  |description = Made by the Space Amish, it can reliably heat up a room to livable temperature. Requires an energy cell, all of them are loaded with crappy 1000 watt one, keep it in mind if you need free battery.
