The Piping Generic Data Mechanical sheet in the AllCommon.xls workbook defines generic data for mechanical piping ends.
Nominal Piping Diameter
Type the nominal piping diameter for the mechanical end.
Nominal Diameter Units
Specify the units for the NPD column. For example, type mm or in.
Pressure Rating
Type the pressure rating code for the mechanical end.
Note that, typically, a mechanical end does not have a value for pressure rating. If so, the mechanical end generic data can be defined without pressure rating. In other words, some mechanical ends may require pressure rating, while other mechanical ends will not.
The Pressure Rating property defines the envelope of pressure to which the mechanical end may be subjected. Valid codes are listed in the AllCodeLists.xls workbook on the Pressure Rating sheet in the Codelist Number column.
End Preparation
Type the end preparation code for the mechanical end. Valid codes are listed in the AllCodeLists.xls workbook on the End Preparation sheet in the Codelist Number column.
End Standard
Type the end standard code for the mechanical end. Valid codes are listed in the AllCodeLists.xls workbook on the End Standard sheet in the Codelist Number column.
Groove Depth
Type the groove depth for the mechanical end.
Groove Width
Type the groove width for the mechanical end.
Groove Setback
Type the groove setback for the mechanical end.
