Displays properties for pipe nozzles. A pipe nozzle, or port, defines the connection location between a pipe run and a piece of equipment. The software automatically places a connection part based on the default part listed in the catalog. The part generation depends on the connecting end preparations and the pipe run properties.

The order in which the properties display in your view depends on your configuration.

Approval State

Specifies the status of the selected object or filter. Changing this property sets the Status. The display depends on your access level. You might be unable to change the status of the object. The list is defined by the ApprovalStatus codelist.

Smart 3Dx saves an object to the database when you change that object's status. Use Undo (CTRL + Z) to reverse the status change.

You can only edit or manipulate an object with a status of Working.

Behavior Controlled by User

Specifies whether you can delete the object or not. Select False to prevent anyone from deleting the object from the model.

Construction Requirement

Specifies the construction requirement for the object. To change the options on the list, edit the Construction Requirement select list in Catalog.

Correlation Approval Status

Specifies whether the object is approved with discrepancies in the three-dimensional data compared with design basis data. The list is defined by the EFWCorrelationApprovalStatus sheet in the AllCodelist workbook.

Topology mismatch approved

Indicates that the object topology mismatch can be ignored.

Data and Topology mismatches approved

Indicates that the object data and topology mismatches can be ignored.

None

Indicates that you do not approve a mismatch.

Correlation Basis

Specifies whether the object is correlated to a P&ID object. The list is defined by the EFWCorrelationBasis select list.

Correlate Object

Indicates that the object has a correlating object in a P&ID.

No correlation is required

Indicates that the object does not have a correlating object in a P&ID.

Specifies the width of the flange or mechanical groove of the object.

Flange Projection or Socket Offset

Specifies the projection of the flange or offset of the socket for the object.

Flange Projection or Socket Offset CONCEPT

Flow Direction

Specifies the flow direction code for the port. Specifying the correct flow direction code for each part port is very important because the software automatically orients the part to the flow direction of the pipe or port to which the part is connected. To change the options on the list, edit the Flow Direction select list in Catalog.

Hyperlink

Specifies the URL or local file path associated with the object. Click the hyperlink to open the page or object in your default browser. Point to the hyperlink to display the URL or path as a tooltip.

Description

Specifies the descriptive text associated with the hyperlink.

URL

Specifies the web address or local file name associated with the hyperlink. The URL must include the protocol, such as http: or https:, as well as the domain name. For example, https://hexagonppm.com/.

Insulation Criteria

Specifies the insulation criteria for the nozzle.

Up to Neck Only

Indicates that the nozzle is insulated up to the neck, leaving the flange uninsulated

Complete

Indicates that both the nozzle neck and flange are insulated.

The list is defined by the InsulationCriteria codelist.

Insulation Material

Specifies the material of the insulation. If Insulation Specification is set to use the insulation defined by the equipment object, this field cannot be changed. However, if Insulation Specification is manually defined, select the insulation material from those available from the reference data.

The list contains the last five insulation materials selected. Click More to browse the catalog for the insulation material to use. If you set this field to Not Insulated, the Insulation Thickness field is disabled. If you set this field to Use Run Material, the along leg feature inherits the insulation material from the duct run.

To change the options on the list, edit the Insulation Material select list in Catalog.

Insulation Operating Temperature

Specifies the operating temperature.

Insulation Purpose

Specifies the purpose of the insulation. If you selected Not Insulated in the Insulation Specification box, you cannot change the information in the Insulation Purpose box. However, if Insulation Specification is manually defined, you can select the purpose of the insulation in this box. If Insulation Specification is a selected reference data insulation specification, the software reads the purpose from the insulation specification from the reference data and displays it here.

To change the options on the list, edit the Insulation Purpose select list in Catalog.

Insulation Requirement

Specifies the requirement of the insulation. To change the options on the list, edit the Insulation Purpose select list in Catalog.

Insulation Surface Area

Specifies the measurement of the surface area of insulation.

Insulation Thickness

Specifies the thickness of the insulation.

Piping

If you selected Not Insulated in the Insulation Specification box, you cannot change the value in the Insulation Thickness box. However, if you manually entered the insulation specification, you must provide a corresponding insulation thickness value as per the specification. If you selected an insulation specification from the available list, the software automatically displays the corresponding thickness value as per the specification.

HVAC

If you selected Not Insulated in the Insulation Material box, this property is unavailable.

Insulation Type

Specifies the type of the insulation. To change the options on the list, edit the Insulation Purpose select list in Catalog.
