Displays all the editable instance-specific information about the selected equipment object. The property name appears on the left side of the grid and the corresponding property value appears on the right side of the grid. If more than one equipment object is selected, only the common occurrence properties for the selected objects appear on the tab.
When viewing properties for a single equipment object, the following properties appear. More properties might appear depending on what you defined in the reference data. See the Equipment and Furnishings Reference Data Help.
Because equipment properties are customizable in the equipment and furnishings reference data, only the properties that are required by the software are documented.
Show Dimensional Legend
Displays the bitmap image associated with the equipment object if it has been defined in the reference data. The image displays in a separate window.
Category
Specifies the properties to view, modify, or define. Select Standard, Position and Orientation, Insulation and Tracing, Weight and CG, Equipment Dimension, Fabrication and Construction, Surface Treatment and Coating, or Responsibility.
Standard
Name
Displays the name of the equipment object. The equipment name is based on the Name Rule selection. If you type a name in this field, the Name Rule property updates to User Defined.
Name Rule
Specify the naming rule to use to name this equipment object. You can select one of the listed rules or select User Defined to specify the equipment name yourself in the Name box.
Description
Specifies a description for the object.
System
Specifies the system to which the object belongs. By default, the model is the parent system for the object. If a parent system is selected when you start the command, System is automatically updated with the selected system. If multiple systems are selected when you start the command, System is automatically updated with the last used system.
Reporting Requirements
Specifies the reporting requirement for the object. To change the options on the list, edit the Reporting Type select list in Catalog.
Reporting Type
Specifies the type of reporting. To change the options in the list, edit the Reporting Type select list in Catalog.
Correlation Status
Specifies whether the object has been correlated to an object in a P&ID. The list is defined by the EFWCorrelationStatus select list.
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.

Position and Orientation
East
Specifies the distance of the connection point from the active coordinate system origin in the east direction.
North
Specifies the distance of the connection point from the active coordinate system origin in the north direction.
Elevation
Specifies the distance of the connection point above or below the active coordinate system origin.
Bearing
Specifies the bearing angle for the object. The Bearing angle is measured between the local x-axis of the object and the Y-axis (North) of the global coordinate system in the XY-plane. The local x-axis is the default axis of primary symmetry for all symbols in the catalog. The bearing measurement direction is clockwise from the active coordinate system North looking in the negative active coordinate system direction; that is, down from 0 to 360 degrees. You can enter negative bearing angles, but the software automatically converts them to the positive equivalents. If the pitch is set to +/- 90 degrees, then the bearing measure displays 0 degrees.
Pitch
Specifies the pitch angle for the object. The Pitch angle measures between the x-axis of the object and the X-axis of the global coordinate system in the XZ-plane. This option sets the reference in the model to a line that is the intersection of the vertical plane through the X-axis of the local coordinate system and the active coordinate system horizontal plane. The angle is measured in the positive direction from the horizontal plane in the active coordinate system up direction regardless of the current bearing. Another way to describe pitch is the rotation of the object about its y-axis. Pitch angles are limited to between -90 degrees and +90 degrees, with 0 indicating horizontal.
Roll
Specifies the roll angle for the object. The Roll angle measures between the local z-axis of the object and the Z-axis of the global coordinate in the YZ-plane. Another way to describe roll is the rotation of the object about its x-axis. This option sets the reference in the model to a line that is perpendicular to the local coordinate system x-axis and in the horizontal plane. Roll angles are measured clockwise from horizontal to the y-axis of the local coordinate system. The roll angle is between 0 and 360 degrees. You can enter negative roll angles, but the software automatically converts them to the positive equivalents. If the pitch is set to +/- 90 degrees, then the reference in the model is the North axis.
Insulation and Tracing

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.

However, if Insulation Specification is manually defined, select the purpose of the insulation in this box. Available purposes are read from the reference data.
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. Select 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.
