Concentric reducer that joins two pipes of different end types and with different schedules

Hi All,

 

I am trying  to generate a concentric reducer of 2”x 1”, that joins two different types of pipes, with two different schedules:

 

1: Pipe BV BV SCH 40

2. Pipe PL PL SCH 80

3 Concentric reducer : BV, PL SCH 40. - 80 or 40/80.... I have tried both

 

And does not work.

 

I have defined the SCH of Concentric reducer as 40/80, but does not work. 
I have changed one of the final of concentric reducer : BV- SW...


But it does not work neither.

 

Could you help me, please?.

 

Thanks in advance,.

Dear @june.semiramis ,

 

According to my suppliers for eccentric reducers, there are no reducers with different connections or schedules to buy.
These connections on the reducers would have to be reworked manually so that they meet the requirements.
this does not have to be mapped in Plant 3D, so I will not check this procedure in Plant 3D.

@june.semiramis you need to connect manually.

Typically in piping when you have 2 different bores connecting, you add a fabrication note for the contractor to "Bore to Match" which means they will file down one of the fittings to make a smoother transition between to the piping parts.   In P3D just use an iso note to accomplish this.  The parts in the model will connect easily and regardless of bore, unless you have "schedule matching" activated in your simple joint settings.
