Overview

The Small Hydrogen Tank have the same use as the Hydrogen tank.

It can also be used to refill Hydrogen Bottles by placing it into the tank's inventory and clicking on Refill Bottles, assuming that auto-refill isn't checked.

Usage

Like the big one the Small Hydogen Tank must be directly connected via Conveyor blocks in order to receive hydrogen from the generator, and also to send the fuel to the hydrogen thrusters.

Indicator

The colored indicators on the tank show at a glance the current hydrogen level inside the tank.

0: H2 level < 25%
1: 25% <= H2 level < 50%
2: 50% <= H2 level < 75%
3: H2 level > 75%
4: Tank full.

0: H2 level < 25%
1: 25% <= H2 level < 50%
2: 50% <= H2 level < 75%
3: H2 level > 75%
4: Tank full.

Tips

  • Using a Connector block, you can vent the hydrogen out of the tanks by switching it to Throw Out mode much the same way you can with oxygen tanks.
