  1. Open the Piping Catalog and Specification workbooks.

  2. In the Catalog workbook, do the following:

    • Add worksheets as necessary. See Required Worksheets.

    • Add oa:Rotation to all valves with operators.

    • Add oa:Angle to all elbows.

    • Add oa:SpectaclePosition to all spec blinds.

    • Add oa:EccentricOffsetBasis to all eccentric reducers.

    • On the Piping Female End Generic Data sheet, define values for socket offset, thread depth, hub outside diameter, and hub thickness.

    • On the Piping Bolted End Generic Data sheet, define values for flange thickness tolerance, flange face projection, raised face diameter, flange groove width, standard nut height for studs, standard washer thickness for studs, standard bolt extension for studs, standard nut height for machine bolts, standard washer thickness for machine bolts, and body outside diameter.

      • Change the bolt extension to address the use of nut height and washer thickness.

      • Add the drilling template data for PDS through-bolted ends without bolt holes.

      • If almost precise STUD tables were used in PDS, remove the drilling template data.

    • On the Gasket Part Data sheet, define the values for ring number and gasket type.

    • If you chose to use the SP3Dolet symbol definition for all your olets, you must manually add the other two required symbol input dimensions (MajorBodyDiameter and HoleinHeader) that the translator does not add to the olet part sheets. Failure to add the two additional dimensions will cause the placement of olets to fail. As an alternative, you can use the SP3DOletG symbol, which only requires the same single input dimension (FacetoHeaderSurface) as PDS.

  3. In the Specification workbook, do the following:

    • Add worksheets as necessary. See Required Worksheets.

    • Edit the Bend Angles sheet as necessary.

    • Edit the Weld Clearance sheet as necessary.

    • Edit the Pipe Takedown Parts sheet as necessary.

    • Check the Piping Commodity Filter sheet for zero entries for RCP (red connect point) for olets. For some olet type components, the translator may miss the second connect point data, so you must manually verify the correct mapping.

    • On the Piping Commodity Material Control Data sheet, define the values for cap screw diameter and for tapped hole depth.

    • On the Bolt Selection Filter sheet, define the value for bolt priority. Also, complete the comments as necessary.

      • If the PDS translator encounters two through-bolted fittings requiring a complete substitution of cap screws; and both through-bolted fittings have identical bolted ends in terms of end preparation, pressure rating, and end standard; and the two through-bolted fittings imply different cap screw commodity codes in PDS, only one cap screw record will be created in the Bolt Selection Filter. The PDS Translator will arbitrarily choose one of the two cap screw commodity codes, and the specification writer must manually add the second cap screw by use of the bolt option.

      • If the PDS translator encounters a through-bolted fitting requiring a complete substitution of cap screws; and the through-bolted fitting implies two different cap screw commodity codes in PDS based on two different size ranges, only one cap screw record will be created in the Bolt Selection Filter. The PDS Translator will arbitrarily choose one of the two cap screw commodity codes, and the specification writer must manually add the second cap screw by use of a different size range.

      • On the Gasket Selection Filter sheet, define the value for ring number. The maximum temperature was used as the ring number in the delivered PDS data, but a rule has not been defined to translate from the commodity code and maximum temperature to ring number.

      • On the Permissible Taps Data sheet, define the value for IsPreferredTap.

      • Optionally, edit the Index sheet. Add or edit hyperlinks.

      • Optionally, edit the Revision History sheet.

  4.  Save the catalog and specification workbooks and exit.

  5. Open the AllCodeLists.xls workbook and edit as necessary. Save and exit.

  • For the CL51 through CL56 rating items, the rating must be changed to a schedule/thickness value.

  • PDS geometry standards must be replaced with industry standards. The following table shows the corresponding US Practice Geometry standards.

6 = 'PDS- P1'

7 = 'PDS- P2'

8 = 'PDS- P3'

11 = 'PDS- I1'

12 = 'PDS- I2'

13 = 'PDS- I3'

16 = 'PDS- Op1'

17 = 'PDS- Op2'

18 = 'PDS- Op3'

  • For reinforcing pads using a geometry standard of 6 (or other), the value can be removed from the PipingCommodityMatlControlData worksheet in column P. This record is not required for Smart 3D.

  • Items using any user-defined or customized geometry standards require that the values are added to the AllCodelists workbook.
