I don't understand. What's your question here? Are you talking about the name of the geyser? You can change that by clicking on the pencil icon in the info card. I don't see anything wrong here or am I missing something?

the output i named it that way

the most i saw is 10 kg/s this is 26

It varies. Sometimes you get a large output during euptuon but a long dormancy to balance it out.

My guess is once you analyse it it'll have a long dormancy period to bring it back down to a reasonable average output.

Activity is already pretty bursty. 119 out of 551 seconds. At 26.1 kg/s that's an average of 5.6 kg/s during activity. Not so outlandish anymore. Those vents usually average out around 3 kg/s. To hit that target it'll be 47% active and 53% dormant.

I have one on the low end on my current map. 2667 g/s overall average and only erupts at 8.3 kg/s. Still averages 4.64 kg/s during activity, since it is erupting 56% of the time. This one only erupts 22% of the time during activity.

huh? What's wrong with the output? Seems normal to me. That's a regular "dirty" polluted water vent comes with germs. Then there's the cool slush geyser, comes out cold so germs can't live on it so it's "clean".

ok not really a problem for me because i planned to use it for a spom or an oil well anyway so good to know i acutely didn't notice it's infected

Don't quote me on this but IIRC, using infected water for a SPOM would make infected O2, but I'm not 100% certain.

It will, BUT food poisoning dies ~instantly at 75C and starts dying at lower temperatures and the minimum temperature of output of electrolyzer is 70C, so it will be probably dead before you even manage to cool the oxygen. From lack of better options, I've been using water from such vent as coolant for a metal refinery and then electrolyze the output, I haven't seen the germs in the air in >100 turns of doing it.

dupes can't get sick from food poisoning in the air

Imagine if they could tho lol.

In the end only the average per second is the real interesting value, except you designed your storage and or shipping solution too slow for a massive output.

This one seems excessively high for its emission period. Depends what is the avg after you analyze it. That will say if it's normal or not. I spawned a bunch of them and the highest activity emission is 13,5 kg/s.
