Range of lesson

The following lesson demonstrates how make installation of the water supply system in Instal-san T, using the ring system.
The installation is located in a two-storey public utility building with basement.

Modules and program configuration

• Instal-san T allows to make a project of the water supply system.
• catalogs containing the most suitable for the ring installations connections systems:
  • U-fittings system with direct plugging of a tap to the U-fitting for looping or
  • system with direct plugging of a tap to the U-fitting for looping

Inital state

The file in an initial state takes into account the graphical presentation of the ground and the floor, shown in two separate sheets.
More about editing the structure: Graphical presentation of the building structure.
The file also contains a piece of the water supply including inserted receivers and water supply stacks. Tips on how to make such a basic file are contained in the article Design of water installation - basics.

Steps to perform

Running application and configuration of basic project data

1. Run the program Instal-san T.
2. Load the file with the prepared structure of the building and fragment of installation including receivers and water supply stacks.

Inserting the pipe-runs of utility water

1. Put on every storey the pipe-runs of cold tap water and hot tap water in the form of a open ring surrounding powered receivers. The program will allow for the closure of the ring after connecting the receivers.
   
   

   1. Not fully closed ring of utility water pipe-runs
   
   

Connecting the receivers

1. Connections to the receivers by U-fittings system with direct inclusion tap to the T-fitting:
   • Highlight a piece of installation, to take into account the receivers and the pipe-runs want to connect to, and then select the key combination Shift + Ctrl + A or an option "Automatically connect terminal units" available in menu for Components.
     
     

     2. Receivers connect by T-fittings
     
     
     

     3. Virtual pipe-runs in connections with T-fittings
     
     
   • In U-fittings system, after selecting "Automatically connect terminal units", give the type of pipe-run "virtual" for the pipe-runs comprising approaches to the receivers.
   • Close the ring.
2. Connecting the receivers in the system of direct inclusion of tap for the U-fitting:
   • Select the part of the installation, to take into account the receivers and the pipe-runs want to connect to, and then select the key combination Shift + Ctrl + L or an option "Receptor connect automatically with U-Fitting for looping" available in menu for Components.
     
     

     4. Receivers connected using U-fittings
     
     
     

     5. Virtual pipe-runs at connections with U-fittings
     
     
   • In the system of forming connections via the U-fittings, the program will automatically set the type of pipe-run "virtual" for the pipe-runs comprising approaches to the receivers.
   • Close the ring.
     More about connecting the receivers: Connecting the receivers.
     

Creation of schematic view of installation

1. If in the project is circulation, it should be completed before the ring.
   
   

   6. Fittings
   
   
2. Other fragments in the schematic view of installation create in a standard way.
