Adding SKEY to custom fittings

MONTECINOS — Tue, 30 Aug 2022 15:13:13 GMT

Good afternoon,

I´m going to add a custom flange that i made to my catalogue, the issue is i don´t know which one of the SKEY symbol list do i have to add.

My flange is "Flange Adaptor Spigot Long Grooved for the use of flat-gaskets", similar to the shape of a welding Neck Flange, but is made of Polyethylene, so i can´t to add that SKEY.

Which one would be the best SKEY symbol for adding to this custom flange adaptor?.

I attach 2 image, one of them is the custom fitting that i want to add to catalogue, the another image is the SKEY list symbols available

If I see this correctly, the Accessories Flange Connection PE (V-Bund) is added to this component, or?

Hi Betreff,

Thanks for your help.

I have another doubt, ¿Is there any way to add the "Flange adaptor spigot long grooved " to the spec editor catalogue?. At the moment of creating a new componen in spec editor, in the dropdown list of elements to create as for example FITTINGS, MISCELLANEOUS, etc..., do not appear the option of STUB-END, so i can´t create it as custom element.

I would like to add it to my custom catalogue and try to configure the programm. I want at the moment of adding a flange to a pipe that "Flange adaptor spigot long grooved" appears automatically after placed the flange as in images that i attached before.

I don´t know if there is a way to configure that behaviour .
