    In OpenPlant Modeler, inserting a generic valve to pipe doesn’t break the pipe & no connection with generic valve generates.

    Background

    In OpenPlant Modeler, inserting a generic valve to pipe doesn’t break pipe & doesn’t generate flange connection to it. This leads to dis-connectivity with pipe & placed generic valve as shown below. This wiki article explains the customization to fix this issue.

    Steps to Accomplish

    1. Launch Bentley Class Editor.
    2. Open OpenPlant_3D.01.07. ecschema of respective project from mentioned directory.



    3. Supplement with OpenPlant_3D_Supplemental_Modeling.01.07.ecschema & OpenPlant_3D_Supplemental_ModelingViews.01.07.ecschema.

      For More information on supplementing schema Click Here>>>>

    4. Navigate to GENERIC Valve class. Refer image below.



    5. From BaseClasses of GENERIC_VALVE click on ellipses. Refer image below.



    6. From Base Classes window search for INLINE_VALVE and click on Refer image below.



    7. Select INLINE_VALVE, using down arrow move it to Added Classes list & select OK. Refer image below.



    8. Notice that GENERIC_VALVE class BaseClasses list updated as shown below.



    9. Save all the changes & verify result in OpenPlant Modeler.



      Notice that inserting of generic valve to pipe generate connection with pipe as shown above.
