1- How to draw a primary/secondary line?

Piping Routing Primary/secondary line.
2- Properties
We define size(diameter) - plan no.

Determined in 2 ways:
a) Properties of line( right bottom of window).
b) Labels (In piping Labels)
Define constants status:
New
Existing
Future.
3- Valves Catalog Explorer.
Valves choose type of valves Determine size + diameter consistency
Then: label for valves piping components commodity code Nominal
diameter.
Plug= miniature cap.

Get the plug from fittings (piping fittingspipe comp.)

2 ways to move fittings move OR drag
NB: In order to stop termination inconsistency Fittings end

Flow Direction: Label piping segment flow direction.

Different types of links and most common:

- Connect to process
- Electric line
- Software link
Are found in Instrumentation Signal line.
How to find the instruments?
Instrumentation:
- Actuators
- Gaps

DCS: Instrumentation Offline In system Functions.
Arrows for electrical wires- From Design
NB: Dont leave an instrument without drawing code.
Select all instruments by Ctrl, then modify in properties window.
For instruments: change sequence no. , Measured variable and instrument

We have to always put the flow direction in:

Piping pipe segments flow direction

Ball valve: always full port.

Comments from the Eng. In Alabama:

Check valve: || always or

Arrows are not to be placed on end caps
Grid density always set at 0.05
Equipment name is ALWAYS LABEL not Note.
Instruments Symbol without implied components
FO? FC? Difference?
Drip Leg? Orthogonal Line?

Control angle valve: from instruments Valve Angle 2 way generic

body angle
Valves controlled electrically from Instruments.
In reducers, larger size x smaller size
Function block placed as a flag?
I/P function near valve instrument, its symbol is Convert Function T/R found
in InstrumentFunctionConvert Function T/R
We put the value I/P in Properties/Instrument Function Value.
