3.5 Administering pipe part catalogs
Overview
The database is supplied with the pipe part catalog. The catalogs are located in the node:
"@50 > A10 > A10 > A10 Pipe part catalog"
The
catalogs are nominal-diameter-independent. The nominal-diameter-dependent values are
parameterized so that one base object bundles the characteristics for all nominal diameters.
The nominal-diameter-dependent values are entered in the engineering data as soon as a
user actually assigns a nominal diameter to a component.
Use of pipe part catalogs
● 3D Integration
● Isometrics
● P&ID
3.5.1 Structure of the pipe part catalogs
The pipe part catalogs are managed separately according to the system of standards. The
database is already populated with catalogs based on the DIN/EN and ANSI/ASME systems
of standards.
The pipe part catalogs have the following basic structure:
● System of standards > Pipe part type > Connection type > Material > Pipe parts
● The flange node has the following structure: Connection type > Pressure stage > Material
