The Component Sequence List is an ordered list of components and provides an alternative method of navigating to the components within the branch while maintaining focus on the Piping Component Editor form. Editor form.

 

Quick Pipe Router The Quick Pipe Router has fitting to fitting functionality that provides the visual feedback to determine weather there is enough space for an elbow or bend. Clicking the Extend Route handle will display the Distance feedback value and fitting to fitting information in View. This displays how the current cursor position relates to the elbow/bend. the 3D View.

The initial position of the handle will display the selected Distance Feedback value followed by ‘One fitting’. This will be the case until the length of tube is i s great enough to accommodate the elbow/bend.

Clicking the left mouse button at this stage will automatically increase the leg length to allow for a 90 degree elbow/bend.

Positioning the handle beyond the center to face dimension of the elbow/bend will display the resultant tube length.

The elbow/bend will not have the correct representation until the subsequent direction has been determined.

Use a combination of weld neck flanges for the valves and slip slip-on -on flanges elsewhere. The flanges downstream of the valves will be weld neck, which is technically incorrect. Use the Reselect Tab to change this Flanges to Slip-Ons subtype FSO.

 

The suggested workflow for this exercise is as follows: follo ws:-Create pipe and branch. Connect head and tail to equipment items. Create flange/gasket at head and tail. Create elbow at head and tail, offset to distances shown. Create tee upstream of elbow at tail, of distance shown.

Complete the routing of PIPE /100-B-8 by adding the BRAN /100-B-8/B2 as shown. Ensure that slip-on and weld neck flanges have been used appropriately.

Exercise  – Quick Pipe Routing Using Elbows The Quick Pipe Router   will allow the definition of the pipe route wherever there is a ‘badly’ defined route within a branch, i.e. where the dotted pipe frame is displayed instead of implied tube.
