Motor Types symbol component

Some equipment symbols show a motor symbol component that indicates that a motor runs pumps or other types of equipment represented by the symbol. In the case of the SA_MultiStagePump symbol, the motor symbol component can be oriented left or right based on a Wizard option selection.

There are two types of motors: Fixed and Variable. Fill animation of a Fixed motor indicates if the motor is running or not. Gray fill indicates the motor is running.

Variable motors can show other equipment states and the collective status of other pieces of equipment represented by a symbol's multiple equipment indicators.

• When all equipment is passive or stopped, the motor symbol component does not show any fill animation.

• When some but not all equipment is active, the pump motor show light gray fill animation.

• When all equipment is active, the pump motor show dark gray animation.

• When all equipment is in an interlocked safety state, the pump motor does not show any fill animation to indicate that it is stopped.

• When all equipment is out of service, the the pump motor does not show any fill animation to indicate that it is stopped.

To configure a Fixed motor

A Fixed motor only needs a Boolean custom property that indicates if the motor is running or stopped.

To configure a Variable motor

To use a variable speed motor, set MotorType to Variable and set the ControllerOP Wizard option to True. The symbol shows a variable speed controller to adjust motor speed.

Other optional variable speed controller Wizard options can be configured, but only ControllerOP is required.
