Moon Sweepers Pressure Chamber: make Moon Sand and check failures

This shows material functions, not left/right port placement. Read the actual labels, arrows and machine prompt in your build. Test a small supply and watch both the input reading and output before extending the line.

1. Confirm your Packager, dock or Catcher sends Dust along the incoming belt.
2. Connect to the Chamber's Dust input and check that it accepts material.
3. Check the machine's power status; the reported demand is 10 kW.
4. Connect the Sand output to a receiving route with space.
5. Observe a completed cycle and a change in output inventory. S23S24

Diagnose the first missing result

If production stops only after dark, compare solar output and stored charge. If Sand reaches the Press, continue with the Stone Press checks rather than rebuilding the Dust source.

Read the price and cycle as reported values

Published guides list a $500 purchase and 5 kg Dust processed per 12-second cycle. Their exact Sand yield has not been independently measured by this site. At equal-weight yield, the arithmetic would be 25 kg Sand/min, but that assumption is necessary before using the 2:5 machine ratio. S23S24S28

Check current menu values and whether a Mod changes processing speed. The official 1.0.5 baseline already includes this machine; the December 1.1 target is not its release date. S04S05

Retest one small line

Change the first failed connection, then repeat with the same input and power conditions. Record the machine message, material levels, output blockage and installed build if it remains stuck. Preserve a save copy before a substantial rebuild. The factory guide puts the machine back into the full route.
