The Unit Module (L) is a large-capacity storage for unit products which automatically unloads Cargo Ships. It features storage for 720 units and three output connections for Flat Conveyors (or their variants).

The throughput of unloading the compartment of a Cargo Ship with this module is 360 / 60 Clock.png . This rate can be matched with one Flat Conveyor III or two Flat Conveyor II. It should be noted that ship transit and docking also take time:

  • 180 Clock.png (3.0 months) for round trip if "Reduce ship speed & save fuel" is disabled
  • 360 Clock.png (6.0 months) for round trip if "Reduce ship speed & save fuel" is enabled
("Reduce ship speed & save fuel" is a setting in Cargo Depot)
  • 10 Clock.png (5 days) for docking and undocking

The summarized information is shown in the below table.
