with extensive functionality and complete
ANSI/ISA symbology, AutoFLOW makes it easy
to create intelligent flow sheets as well
as:
-
Valve bills of material
-
Equipment lists
-
Instrument lists
-
Line number lists

System Overrides
To increase flexibility, the AutoFLOW allows the

special components or change the parameters for these
components. The System Overrides include:
-
Welded Valves:
places welded valves instead of flanged
-
Shop or Field:
lets you change the shipping destination of valves
-
System Toggles:
AutoFLOW includes system toggles so users can select
to enable or disable some of the program’s
functionality. These toggles allow users to customize
the software based on their company’s standard
practices. The System Toggles include:
-
Valve Flanges:
lets you control the appearance of flanges by allowing
to choose to add valves showing flanges or not showing
flanges
-
Material ON/OFF:
lets you create piping designs without using pipe
specifications
