Valve Operator Orientation

Hello, In Plant 3D how do you change the valve operator to Normally Open or Normally Closed position? Kindly give a note. Thanks in advance.

Dear @joshuaaS6HAW ,

1. Create a 2. symbol for the closed state and add it to the open symbol
2. In the Normaly line, mark the symbol list and go to edit
3. Now select the new symbol for the closed state of the valve in the NC line.

In the properties you can now change the display in the P&ID via NO and NC

For P&ID, its very much useful. For model, Lever operated valve, how could I make turn off position of the valve lever?

Not at all because the model is already in the finished control valve as it was defined in the P&ID. The P&ID is the leader in planning, not the 3D model.
