The Pump pumps a single fluid out of the world.
This page describes Voluminous Energy 0.5 (Alpha 2, for 1.21.1, 26.1.2 and 26.2). All numbers are the default values from the startup config and can be changed there.
Usage
When placed, the Pump checks the fluid directly below it and from then on only pumps that fluid (the "pumping fluid"). It works through a 45 × 45 block area (22 blocks in each direction from the Pump) one layer at a time, from its own level down to the bottom of the world, checking 200 blocks per tick ("Pump Check Cycles Per Tick"). Every source block of the pumping fluid it finds is removed and adds 1,000 mB to its tank, as long as the tank has room. Use the bucket slots, or pipe the fluid out, to empty the tank.
The Pump has no upgrade slot.

Inventory
The "default face" is the side of the machine that automation (hoppers, pipes) uses for the slot by default, relative to the machine's front. It can be changed in the machine's IO settings.
