-
Click SmartPlant > Retrieve Command to retrieve the P&ID that contains the nozzle to place. You can skip this step if the P&ID has already been retrieved.
-
Click SmartPlant > View P&ID Command to view the P&ID that contains the nozzle to place.
-
In the P&ID, select the nozzle to place in the model.
-
Click Place Nozzle Command on the vertical toolbar.
-
Select the equipment or designed equipment object on which to place the nozzle to display the Nozzle Properties Dialog. You can select the shape in a graphic view, or you can select it in the Workplace Explorer.
-
Verify that the property values defined on the Occurrence Tab are correct as compared to the nozzle report.
-
On the Location Tab, specify the placement type and type values for the location parameters as needed.
-
Click OK to close the dialog and return to the model with the nozzle placed.
-
Click SmartPlant > Compare Design Basis Command, and verify the correlation status of the nozzle in the model.
-
If necessary, click Copy properties from design basis, and then click Update to transfer data in the P&ID to match the 3D model object.
-
The software automatically sets all mapped nozzle properties in the 3D model as defined by the currently selected P&ID nozzle.
-
After the nozzle is placed in the 3D model, it can be moved without affecting the correlation. If it is deleted, it does not delete the P&ID design basis object.
-
Correlation is a relationship between an object in the 3D model and the corresponding object in the P&ID. For example, a nozzle in the 3D model is related to a nozzle in the P&ID.
-
The occurrence properties of the nozzle object in the 3-D model that are not correlated with corresponding properties in the design basis object (that is, the nozzle in the P&ID) can be edited without changing the correlation status.
