How to Fill Portable Oxygen Tanks Using Spouts

Preparing the Spout and Fluid Line

Portable oxygen tanks are essential equipment for space travel, requiring mechanical fluid filling systems. To set up a filling station, suspend a mechanical spout above a conveyor belt or item depot.

Run fluid pipes directly into the mechanical spout from your oxygen source. Ensure your fluid pipe network is pressurized with pumps so oxygen flows continuously into the spout's internal tank.

Filling the Oxygen Tanks

Once fluid is flowing into the mechanical spout, route your tanks underneath:

• Place an empty portable oxygen tank onto the conveyor belt leading to the mechanical spout.
• As the portable oxygen tank passes directly under the spout, the belt pauses the item while fluid is dispensed.
• The mechanical spout injects oxygen directly into the portable oxygen tank until it is filled.

After filling completes, the conveyor belt resumes moving the tank down the track. You can collect the filled portable oxygen tanks at the end of the line or pick them up directly for your exploration gear.
