The task of creating an HVAC Component is initiated from the HVAC Window.

  1. Select Inline Plant Equipment in the Categories drop-down list and then RECTANGULAR, Heater Battery in the Available Type drop-down list to display the Heater Battery window:

  2. You are required to input the following dimensions:

    • HB Name(Ref)

    • Duct Width AA

    • Duct Depth AB

    • Length

  3. To visualize how the dimensions equate to the actual piece of HVAC, click Picture to display a detailed drawing for Rectangular Heater Battery (CAIPE).

    Note: The fields will be pre-populated with default dimensions. These dimensions are governed by the details defined in the HVAC Catalogue.

  4. Click Transpose Width/Depth to exchange Duct Width AA dimension with the Duct Width AB dimension.

  5. Specify a type of joint to use for the Arrjoint (Arrive Joint) and Leajoint (Leave joint). Refer to Create/Modify HVAC Component for a detailed description.

  6. After selecting the type of joint to use for the Arrive Joint and Leave Joint you must enter the Pipes Direction.

    • Click Unchanged (default when Modify is selected) - positions the component at the co-ordinates 0.00.

      Note: Unchanged is usually used, when Modify is selected, it does not connect the component but positions it at 0.00, in effect in a floating position.

  9. Click Defaults to reset all the fields back to when the Heater Battery window was opened.

  10. Click Fit to orientate the Heater Battery to automatically match the outlet (p-leave) of the previous piece of HVAC to the inlet (p-arrive) of the next piece.
