The Magnetic Containment Pipe is a special type of fluid transport pipe used to transport very hot gases. The only type of gas that can travel through these pipes is Fusion Plasma. The extreme heat of the Fusion Plasma will cause the pipe to melt into lava as soon as it enters the pipe. In order to stop this, a Van de Graaff Generator must be placed near a line of pipe and given enough power to zap the pipes constantly. The amount of power given to the Van de Graaff increases the length of pipe that can be electrically charged. When charged the pipe will have a moving texture on the golden edge signifying that it is safe. The Magnetic Containment Pipe is used in the Preheater Unit and Plasma Injector structures.

Handbook Description[edit]

"Magnetic containment pipes are used to transport extremely hot gases. They use a magnetic field to keep the contents away from the walls, as the pipe would otherwise melt. Note that an electrical charge must be applied to the pipe for it to work."
