How exercise i utilise a water filtration machine?

Completely clueless here.

Yous mean building it? It has to connect to an exterior wall in a Multipurpose Room (to suck in the salt h2o for filtration).

And then i but wait until it reaches 100% water and 100% salt?

Yeah it's automated, but runs until it fills with 2 salt and 2 filtered waters

salt processes twice every bit fast every bit water, just make sure you have a decent power supply, the machine is ability hungry.

Emphasis on power hungry. If y'all are relying strictly on solar power, I probably wouldn't build ane.

Well i accept iii solar panels and a bioreactor.

^That's deadline okay probably - best way to mitigate the power utilise is to simply remove what you need from the H2o Filtration Found (don't just clear everything out when information technology's full and motility information technology all into storage). Get out the Salt (if you don't demand it) and only remove the water you need, one bottle at a fourth dimension.

Also the water filtration module has to be UNDERWATER to work properly. If you build information technology above the waterline it's not going to give yous common salt, and barely any water.

Recommend having lots of solar or a few thermals to power it.

I really wish that machine had an on/off switch, just for itself. Anything that tin drain this much power ought to give me the option of turning it off. I can stop the Scanner Room, later on all. Information technology doesn't have to be scanning and running my batteries flat all the fourth dimension.

It kind of does. If it has produced ii salt and 2 h2o and you lot go out them in the machine it volition finish running.

Right, but information technology still has to suck downwards a LOT of energy to get to that state in the first identify. Plus I might want to pull off a h2o bottle or some common salt without immediately hitting my grid with a power surge. Just having an on/off switch for one of the nearly expensive base modules in the game seems reasonable.

I usually ready a small base of operations just for water filtration machines and food. Keeping the h2o filtration in a divide base means they won't drain your power in your main base. Two multipurpose rooms in the condom shallows with solar panels. One room has 3 water filtration machines and a fabricator, and the other an alien containment with 10 peepers. I cure 6 peepers out of ten with the salt from the filtration and so accept an endless supply of food and water.

My makeshift on and off switch for the water automobile is to only deconstruct information technology but only 99%, that manner you can "plow it dorsum on" immediately with the habitat builder when you need it.

That'due south rather bright. Cheers!

No problem.
