6 port bleed ring

Hello,

 

We have a 4" bleed ring,  with Four (4) 3/4" drill holes.   A total of 6 ports.   I have tried to make this part in the catalog but it has a limitation of 4 ports.

 

So I tried custom parts from the Ribbon bar.  Again the 4 port limitation.   I tried to create if from a custom block and when I use convert parts,  I ran into the 4 port limitation again.  

 

Is there a way I can make this bleed ring.  

 

Thanks for any help.

Hi @gcostanzo,

No cut sheet it simply states in their  specs  "ASME 150 rf/ff bleed ring, four drilled bleed holes and 3/4" FNPT thd taps, CS hex head plugs, Cs body."

 

  I was planing on building the part with a (2)  bleed holes  at 15 degs from the 0 and 90 position,  or one at every qua.  depending on feed back from the engineer.

You can put as many ports as you want on a block based part just type the number, the drop down only goes to 4. I put 8 on my sample bleed ring - see below.

Were you able to test out what I showed?

When we take the one with only 3 ports, can we modify it to 4 ports? We tried to replace the -2 parameters but it stay at 3 ports.

@julie_havard ,

 

Parametric graphics or block-based?
