Connect Pipe (PE)

Plant Engineering > Part Tools > Exchange > Connect pipe

Use this function to connect pipes that belong to different pipelines and may have different diameters. A precondition for this is that the pipes you want to connect have already been inserted into the layout plan. The connecting point of the pipe you want to attach (with smaller diameter) needs to be located on the centre line of the pipe (with larger diameter) to which the connection is to be made.

After calling the function, identify the pipe to which you want to connect (1). Then specify the connecting point (point option J) of the pipe you want to connect (2).
