Routines are provided for connecting equipment with new/existing major and minor process lines and for inserting valves, control stations and instrument assemblies – a large variety of instrument bubbles are provided, as well as additional line types for interconnecting equipment & instrumentation. Designs may be spec-driven by standard or modified PIP specs, or by custom specs created with the companion no-charge IDS-SPEC™ Generator.
