About Pipes

Explains the concept of the pipes in relation to their technical data dialog.

Pipes are always drawn as lines in the drawing. The program recognizes the line type (cold, hot water or circulation, etc.) by the layer on which these lines are located. A pipe may be connected at each end to a maximum of three other pipes (crossover T-piece) or a block symbolizing another component. It is neither possible to connect several pipes to a component connection nor to leave pipe ends open. Fittings (elbows, T-pieces) have to be inserted or manifolds have to be placed at branches. Use the partial network end for open pipe ends.

The pipe type is either determined by the default settings which you can specify in the Pipe tables or by the separate definition of the pipe.
