Managing heat output of nuclear reactors

It’s worth noting that the gibbl-o-meter, even in hex mode, isn’t able to read even the base operating pressure of the large tungstensteel boiler, as the highest pressure levels exceed the maximum read limit of the sensor. I think it may even be the case of the large titanium boiler.
I personally don’t use those sensors in the control logic of my reactors, and instead focus purely on making sure the nominal heat output, and subsequent steam output, is never too much for my system to handle. It’s basically impossible for a reactor to spiral out of control in GT6, and it’s also significantly easier to monitor the reactor itself for irregularities rather than the auxiliary equipment (although I would recommend a water monitor at the very least)
