[F&S] Full Auto Airlock (Light Version)

Description

Fully automated airlock, just build and forget. Retains the existing atmosphere in the pipe when the airlock closes, and release it when the same side is going to open again. Does not check the pressure behind the doors, if you need it, read the Related section.

Changeable values in IC code

none

Important

You must separate the electrical lines with a transformer or APC, otherwise IC10 may read incorrect values. Kill Switches are optional but strongly recommended option. It is recommended to place a APC with a battery, so as not to get stuck in the airlock when the power goes out.

Emergency Kill Switch

Mortality among stationeers in the airlock is approaching 99%, in order to prevent this outcome, it is highly recommended to place emergency switches. When the emergency kill switch is switched, all doors are instantly unlocked, active ventilation is turned off and can be controlled manually. If you have lost electricity, the doors are not locked, you can open them with a crowbar.

Note

You can choose not to place 1 pipe analyzer and 1 active ventilation (Mode Pressure to Vacuum). You can choose not to place external and internal pipe analyzers with active ventilation (Mode Vacuum to Vacuum). It doesn't matter which side the external or internal exit (When ic10 switched on, the external door is always closed and the internal door opens). For pipe explosion protection, pressure is limited to 55 MPa. Original idea taken from the user: @HydrO
