## Description

Pressure Regulators are useful components in [Atmospherics](/wiki/categoryatmospherics) systems, designed to manage gas flow and pressure.

This kit can create four devices: the [Pressure Regulator](/wiki/pressure-regulator), [Back Pressure Regulator](/wiki/back-pressure-regulator), [Pressurant Valve](/wiki/pressurant-valve), and [Purge Valve](/wiki/purge-valve). Use left-click while in active hands to place. Scroll to switch between variants.

Much like most other similar devices and components, all Pressure Regulator units operate as an interactive cross-feed between the two pipe networks without being a part of either - they do not have their individual content and do not transfer anything beyond what their functionality allows. When unpowered, Pressure Regulators do not allow any transfer between the networks at all. If either side of the device is missing the pipe network connection, it will blink to indicate an error and will not function.

All Pressure Regulator devices have a flat power demand, that is unaffected by the efficiency of the process, or whether any actual work is being done or not.
