Displays instance-specific information about the object.

  • Import Default Flange Properties and Drive Selection by Generic Port Data are only available when you are editing the properties of on-the-fly instrument or specialty instrument object.

  • If you select multiple objects, then Import Default Flange Properties and Drive Selection by Generic Port Data are unavailable.

Category

Specifies the properties that you want to view for the object. Piping object properties are divided into different categories: Standard, Weight and CG, Fabrication and Construction, Bend Data, and Port n. The Port n category is only available when you are editing port properties of on-the-fly instrument or specialty instrument object. If you select multiple objects, then Port n category is unavailable.

Import Default Flange Properties

Applies default flange port properties for the selected specialty instrument. If you click this command, the current flange port properties are replaced with corresponding generic port data as defined in the Catalog.

Connection Part Type

Specifies the type of connection part. This option is available only when you are editing the properties of a connection part.

Standard

Displays all the occurrence properties for the part as defined in the reference data. If the table is blank, the object for which you are viewing properties does not have any occurrence properties defined for it in the reference data. Not all standard category properties defined here are available on every part type. For example, the cold spring length property is only available on pipe parts. See the Piping Reference Data Help for information about occurrences defined in the reference data.

Name

Specifies the name of the object.

Name Rule

Displays how the object was named. If set to Default Name Rule, the software named the object using the default naming rule. If set to User Defined, you, or someone else, named the object manually.

Pipe Run

Displays the name of the parent pipe run to which the object belongs. This property is read-only.

Type

Displays the object's short code. The list of available short codes is based on the piping specification and nominal diameter of the object selected along with the geometry at the insertion location.

Option

Specifies options that you can use instead of the selected object. If no options exist, this field just displays Default. The Option list contains any options defined in the piping specification for the short code selected in the Type list. For example, if you are looking at a valve part, the Option list contains other valve parts, such as one with a higher-pressure rating, that you can use here. Selecting a value from the Option list updates the object.

Tag

Displays the engineering tag if one is assigned.

Base/Mating Part

Specifies whether the selected object is a base part or a mating part. If the object is a mating part, you can use this option to change the object to a base part. Use caution however, because after a mating part has been changed to a base part, it cannot be changed back to a mating part again.

Modeled Length

Specifies the length of the object as it is modeled.

Cut Length

Specifies the cut length of the pipe. Smart 3D calculates the cut length using the following formula:

Cut Length = Modeled Length + Field Fit Length End 1 + Field Fit Length End 2 + Flared Lap Length End 1 + Flared Lap Length End 2 - Pipe Bend Elongation - Cold Spring Length + Bend Grip Length + Bend Pull Length

It is possible that the field fit lengths, the flared lap lengths, and the bending elongation, grip, and pull lengths are not applicable to the cut length calculation for a given pipe. In that case, Smart 3D ignores them for that pipe.

Field Liner Thickness

Specifies the field liner thickness if a liner is defined.

Cold Spring Length

Specifies the cold spring length to subtract from the cut length. A positive value makes the Cut Length value smaller. The cold spring length refers to intentionally cutting a pipe short and then pulling the assembled pipeline to the connection point. Because of this, there is spring in the pipe until the pipe reaches operating temperature. At that point, there is theoretically no stress on the pipe or the connection.

Reporting Requirement

Specifies the reporting requirements for the object. You can specify that the object is reported or not reported. An example of an object that you may not want reported is a spacer for a valve. You must order the valve, but need not order the spacer as the spacer comes with the valve.

Reporting Type

Specifies the reporting type. The options that are available here depend on what you select for the Reporting Requirement.

The glyph indicates that the reporting type for the part is determined by the specification. After you modify the reporting type, the glyph is no longer visible.

Weight and CG

Displays the center-of-gravity and the weight of the selected object. The center-of-gravity locations are displayed relative to the active coordinate system along the X-, Y-, and Z-axes. The weight value that is displayed in the properties dialog is calculated as the material density multiplied by the object's solid volume. Therefore, the material of the object affects the weight value that is displayed here. Check the material assigned to the object if the weight displayed is an improbable value. For the most accurate weight calculation, use the Tools > Run Report Command.

Dry Weight

Port n

This category is only available when you are editing port properties of an on-the-fly instrument or specialty instrument objects. n represents the number of ports of the selected object. For example, when you work with an object that has two ports, then the Category list displays Port 1 and Port 2 categories. Select a category to specify the port data for the selected port of that object. The software displays the properties of Port 1 if you select the Port 1 category, and so forth.

Use Import Default Flange Properties to replace the current flange port properties with corresponding generic port data as defined in the Catalog.

The following properties are logically related and are prioritized in the order they display. Nominal Diameter n, NPD Unit n, and Termination Class n have the highest priority. For example, you can specify a value for End Preparation 1. If Drive Selection by Generic Port Data is selected, then the software automatically filters and updates the remaining properties with corresponding generic port data as defined in the Catalog.

Flow Direction n

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.

Piping Point Basis n

Specifies the purpose of the port, such as a vent or a drain, an inlet or an outlet, tap by system or by user, jumper or jacket, and so forth. Select an appropriate value from the list.

Drive Selection by Generic Port Data

Filters and lists valid property values as per generic port data defined in the Catalog. This option is selected by default. We recommended that you leave this option selected. If you clear this option, the software does not filter port values and lists all the available values.

You can specify any value. However, this can result in errors due to data mismatch. The combination of property values specified might be inappropriate for the port as per the generic port data defined in the Catalog.
