The Water Pump is used to extract [[Water]] from a Water Ocean and directly deposit it to a Belt. | The Water Pump is used to extract [[Water]] from a Water Ocean and directly deposit it to a [[Conveyor Belts|Belt]]. | ||
Despite its name, the Water Pump can also harvest [[Sulfuric Acid]] from Sulfuric Acid Oceans. | |||

==Additional Notes== | |||
Upon exceeding the maximum transport capacity of the [[Conveyor Belt Mk.III]] the output of the Water Pump will be [[Cargo stacking|piled]]. This happens after reaching [[Veins Utilization (Upgrade)|Veins Utilization]] Level 351 (3610% mining speed), when mining speed becomes 1805. Since then the output cargo will be output in two-stacks when needed. Increasing the Water Pump output by every additional 1800 items/min will raise the stacking limit by 1, and a Mk.III belt with 4-stacked items will be fully saturated when reaching Veins Utilization Level 1430 (14400% mining speed). | |||
The stacking limit will apply regardless of the connected belt tier. | |||
