The Conduit > Parts node (the Conduit.xls workbook) defines all the conduit parts that are available in the catalog.

Almost all conduit parts are represented by symbols. You can find which symbol is used for a particular delivered part by looking in the Symbol Definition column (usually cell C4 of the part sheet). For example, if you look at the ConduitCPL sheet, you will see that ConduitCoupling,Ingr.SP3D.Content.Conduit.ConduitCoupling is the symbol definition. Symbols are named after the text that comes before the period. In this example, the part uses symbol ConduitCoupling,Ingr.

Below is a complete listing of all the properties, both common and unique, that you will see on a part sheet.

Common Properties

These properties appear for all part classes. The properties are listed here in the order that they appear, from left to right, on the part sheet.

Bend Angle

Specify the bend angle, if any, for the part.

Bend Radius

Type the allowable bend radius as an absolute value. If you define a value in this column, do not define a value in the Bend Radius Multiplier column.

Bend Radius Multiplier

Type the NCD multiplier that you want to use to define the bend radius. This value is required only for bends. If you define a value in this column, do not define a value in the Bend Radius column.

Commodity Type

Type the conduit commodity type short description or the corresponding codelist value. Valid codes and short descriptions are listed in the AllCodeLists.xls workbook on the Piping Commodity Type sheet in the Codelist Number column.

Dry COG X

Type the center-of-gravity location for the part along the x-axis when the part is empty.

Dry COG Y

Type the center-of-gravity location for the part along the y-axis when the part is empty.

Dry COG Z

Type the center-of-gravity location for the part along the z-axis when the part is empty.

Dry Weight

Enter the empty weight of the part. Be sure to specify the units when entering this value.

End Preparation[port number]

Specify the end preparation for the part port. Valid codes are listed in the AllCodeLists.xls workbook on the End Preparation sheet in the Codelist Number column.

End Standard[port number]

Specify the end standard for the part port. Valid codes are listed in the AllCodeLists.xls workbook on the End Standard sheet in the Codelist Number column.

First Size Schedule

Specify the schedule (or thickness) for the first size end of this conduit commodity. This data is only required when the commodity code does not include schedule. Valid codes and short descriptions are listed in the AllCodeLists.xls workbook on the Schedule Thickness sheet in the Codelist Number and Schedule Thickness Short Description columns.

If the code for the schedule represents a thickness value, the units of measure for the wall thickness may differ from the units of measure for the nominal diameter.

Graphical Representation Or Not

Specify whether the part should appear in the model.

ID[port number]

Type a unique identifying name for the port.

Industry Commodity Code

Specify the industry commodity code for the part. All industry commodity codes must be unique across the entire catalog.

Lining Material

Specify the lining material, if any, for the part. Examples of lining material include epoxy, rubber, and plastic. Valid codes are listed in the AllCodeLists.xls workbook on the Lining Material sheet in the Codelist Number column.

Material Grade

Specify the material grade for the part. Valid codes are listed in the AllCodeLists.xls workbook on the Material Grade sheet in the Codelist Number column.

NPD[port number]

Type the nominal diameter for the part port. Unless you specify otherwise, the software defines port 1 as the primary port.

NPD Unit Type[port number]

Specify the units for the NPD column. For example, type mm or in.

Piping Point Basis[port number]

Specify the piping point basis that identifies the function of the port. Valid codes are listed in the AllCodeLists.xls workbook on the Piping Point Basis sheet in the Codelist Number column.

Schedule Thickness[port number]

Specify the schedule thickness short description or code for the part port. Valid codes and short descriptions are listed in the AllCodeLists.xls workbook on the Schedule Thickness sheet in the Codelist Number and Schedule Thickness Short Description columns.

Second Size Schedule

Specify the schedule (or thickness) for the second size end of this conduit commodity. This data is only required when the commodity code does not include schedule. Valid codes and short descriptions are listed in the AllCodeLists.xls workbook on the Schedule Thickness sheet in the Codelist Number and Schedule Thickness Short Description columns.

Symbol Definition

Type the symbol definition for the part.

Surface Area

Enter the surface area of the part. This value is required for determining the quantity of paint and insulation and the weight of the insulation. Be sure to specify the units when entering this value.

Volumetric Capacity

Specify the amount of fluid that the part can hold. This value is required for the analysis of heat tracing requirements. Be sure to specify the units when entering this value.

Water Weight

Enter the water weight of the part. Be sure to specify the units when entering this value.

Water COG X

Type the center-of-gravity location for the part along the x-axis when the part is filled with water.

Water COG Y

Type the center-of-gravity location for the part along the y-axis when the part is filled with water.

Water COG Z

Type the center-of-gravity location for the part along the z-axis when the part is filled with water.

Unique Properties

Unique properties appear only for certain classes. The properties are listed here in alphabetical order.

Face 1 to Center

Type the length from the port 1 face to center.

Face 2 to Center

Type the length from the port 2 face to center.

Face to Center

Type the distance from the face of the port to the center of the part.

Face to End

Type the distance from the face of the port to the end of the cap.

Face to Face

Type the distance from the port 1 face to the port 2 face.

The following three properties are custom attributes and are used in the Pull box part class.

IJUAElectricalEquipment::ElecEquipmentLength

Type the length of the electrical equipment.

IJUAElectricalEquipment::ElecEquipmentHeight

Type the height of the electrical equipment.

IJUAElectricalEquipment::ElecEquipmentWidth

Type the width of the electrical equipment.

Union Diameter

Specify the diameter of the union.
