Your eyes do not deceive you; this Kovarex Enrichment Process circuit system does NOT use any combinators! It uses a unique three-state belt-based latch to control its processing.

To initiate:
1. Place one (1) Iron Plate on the top-left Transport Belt of the Transport Belts that are connected to the Circuit Network (see image), preferably in the inner portion. (Press Z to drop item in cursor) This Iron Plate will support the latch system.

2. Supply the left Transport Belt bus with U-238 on the LEFT SIDE ONLY. If both sides are used the system could jam.
3. Place 40 OR preferably 80 U-235 within the Centrifuge.
(Optional) 4. Supply the Centrifuge with Modules if desired.
The mechanism should now continue to run on its own.

Features:
-Supports 80 U-235 for uninterrupted uptime
-Supports any vanilla Speed Modules of any amount
-Fault-proof against U-235 backups; the mechanism will go into standby until the backup starts moving again
-Fault-proof against U-238 backups via prioritizing recycling of unused U-238 back into the process over using provided U-238
-Fault-proof against power outages due to power-independent 3-state latch
-Low material cost for mechanism
-Two inserters have limited stack sizes to prevent malfunctions

Default Components:
16 Transport Belts (Yellow, interchangeable with other types)
1 Splitter (Yellow, interchangeable with other types)
3 Fast Inserters
2 Filter Inserters (Fast)
1 Inserter
1 Steel Chest (interchangeable with other non-logistic chests)
6 Red Wire
1 Green Wire
1 Centrifuge
The base mechanism only costs 103 Iron Plates, 42.5 Copper Plates, and 8 Steel Plates. The Centrifuge, however, costs 400 Iron Plates (and 10 Iron Ore), 500 Copper Plates, 50 Steel Plates, 100 Stone, 1k Water, and 200 Plastic Bars. So, the mechanism can be considered relatively dirt-cheap.
