How much oxite does it take to pressurise a 7x7x1 room?
I've stuffed 7 stacks of 50 oxite into an ice crusher, but can't raise my room above 16KPa. The ice crusher is attached to a canister and two passive vents and appears to have equalised with the room. There are no leaks apparent. It doesnt normally take this much oxite right?

I think I've found the problem. I have two filters in series, and for some reason the second filter is running much, much slower than the first filter and there is 1.2GPa of pressure in the pipe that connects them. Why is the second filter running so slow though?

Without knowing the temp of your room thats a tough question. In the game (and real life) gasses expand as they heat. so if you have placed 350 oxite worth of gas in a room that is just barely above 0C you might have a bit of a powder keg. Before adding in more gas I would warm what you have to about 18C but go slowly as the basic iron walls can only hold up to about 160kPa of pressure (and fail completely at 200kPa).

Filter Speed directly depending to the length of the input pipe network. So if you have filtration units behind each other make sure, that all inputs are equal length (or only increase, but never decrease). You can achieve this if necessary with valves to seperate a pipe network.

That's an odd mechanic, do you know if there's a reason for this?

1 oxite = 25 mol.
ß(cube, 25°C) = 3 mol /kPa

7 stacks x 50 oxite/stack x 25 mol/oxite = 8750 mol.
8750 mol / 49 cubes = 178 mol /cube.
178 mol/ cube : 3 mol / kPa = 60 kPa / cube

With full 7 stacks of oxite you will get ~60kPa pressure in your 7x7x1 room at 25°C.

Don't know. There are some quirks around the atmospheric devices. The airconditioner is another device which you can quite exploit with that knowledge.

I suspect it is so because it is a side effect how the calculation was programmend and nobody has changed it since then.

Its going to about 650. I would probably. But as others have said, tempurature plays a large roll. So make sure you keep temp at a stable level.
