GT640 to GT700 Guide for Trunnions

Simple Guide Representation.

These user standards are created using Create Base

Component on the Support Editor form.

The three standard catalogue parameters have been

added, nominal bore (NB), outside diameter (OD) and
connection type (CONN) and 25 design parameters
have been created.

The following lists the parameters that have been preset. The plate length (PLEN), plate width (PWID) and
plate thickness (PTHK) will be obtained from the identified base plate. All other design parameters are set to
0 (zero) as shown in the form displayed above.

Number Description Dkey

1 Plate Length PLEN

2 Plate Width PWID

3 Plate Thickness PTHK

22 Minimum Insulation MNIN

23 Maximum Insulation MXIN

24 Minimum Temperature MINT

25 Maximum Temperature MAXT

Design parameters 1, 2 and 3 have been declared as user editable (with an allowable range of 0 to 1000) and
default values have been added as shown.

Point Sets

These have been created with the minimum points required by AVEVA E3D™ Supports. These are:

P-Point Description

1 Arrive Point

2 Leave Point

3 Bottom of Pipe (BOP) -5mm, i.e. bottom of the ancillary geometry -5mm

9 BOP (Including geometry if required), i.e. bottom of the ancillary geometry

10 Left of Pipe

11 Right of Pipe

12 BOP

The diagram below shows the position and directions of the p-points, P1 and P2 are arriving and leave points
along the centreline of the pipe.

 The AVEVA E3D™ Supports default p-points provided cannot be deleted or modified, but additional
ppoints can be created if required.

Project Catalogue for User Defined Ancillaries

The catalogue items for the user defined ancillaries have been created in the ranges detailed below within the
MDU/CATA database in AVEVA Sample project (APS). This database contains all the catalogue elements,
i.e. SCOM, GMSE, PTSE, DTSE and SDTE, where the user will modify the GMSE to suit their requirements.
The specification components for ALL the user defined ancillaries are in the /MDS specification in the AVEVA
E3D™ Supports project, which MUST NOT be modified by users.

Modifying the User Defined Ancillary Standard

The administrator uses the standard PARAGON Pipework Application to modify the required elements within
the MDU catalogue database, i.e. MDU/CATA

Within the MDU/CATA database, the following should not be deleted or modified (including name change):

CATREF (Catalogue Reference)

PTREF (P-Point Set Reference) (see Note below)

GMREF (Geometry Set Reference) (see Note below)

DTREF (Data Set Reference) (see Note below)

 Although the MDU/CATA default p-points provided cannot be deleted or modified, additional p-points
can be created. Also, geometry can be added to the geometry sets, and additional properties included
as necessary.

Example User Defined High Pressure Support.

The following is an example of a simple High Pressure Support.

 Some basic Piping Cats and Specs knowledge is assumed during this example.

Modifying the support geometry

The support designer can create any shape but it should
be kept simple.

Enter the Paragon Module of the Training

Project as a Support Administrator using the
following details.

Project: Training (TRA)

Username: A.SUPPORTADMIN

Password: A

MDB: A-SUPPORTS

Module: Paragon

Enter the Piping application Select PIPING for the Application

Pull-down

Select Category from the Modify Group of the CATALOGUE Tab.

The Support can now be modified as required to suit the Project requirements. Navigate to AT501-4.100 from
the bottom section of the Model View window.
