Create Design Object Nozzles

Explanation

This activity is used to create mechanical nozzles for a design object. Nozzles are registered as mechanical connections on a many-to-one basis to the design object. Once the nozzles are registered with their related design part gaskets, a list of nozzles with gaskets can be generated within a drawing.

Prerequisites

Design objects of a design object class configured with the Can Have Mechanical Nozzles class property must exist.

System Effects

Nozzles are created for the design object.

  4. In the Object ID field, enter the identity of the object owning the nozzle. Use the List of Values to select an object.
  5. In the Label field, enter the nozzle by name (e.g., in1, in2, out1 or out2). A value in this field should be entered.
  6. Optionally, in the Service field, enter the description of the media or purpose for the connection, e.g., drainage.
  7. Optionally, in the Rating field, enter the pressure class or capacity of the nozzle.
  8. Optionally, in the Type field, enter the type of flange (e.g. with collar or welded, among others).
  9. Optionally in the Dimension field, enter the size of flange, in inches or millimeters.
  10. Optionally, in the Facing field, enter the type of flange surface. Possible values include RF (Raised Face), FF (Flat Face) and Ring Joint, among others.
  11. Optionally, in the Finish field, enter the flange's degree of unevenness on its facing surface..
