AutoFLOW Features

  • Includes a complete library of symbols for valves, instruments, instrument lines, instrument balloons and instrument equipment
  • Includes automated functions to draw vessels, exchangers, tanks, flare stacks, pumps, compressors, exchangers, re-boilers, and more
  • Includes other fitting symbols for nozzles, reducers, spectacle blinds, strainers, connectors, louvers, and much more
  • Define line types for primary (process) and secondary (utility) lines to be distinguished by color and/or line thickness
  • When placing valves and other symbols into a line, it automatically trims the line before placing it
  • Customize the size and appearance of valves, instruments, and other symbols easily
  • When you place an instrument balloon and the tag is long, it breaks the balloon edges to ensure your instrument numbers do not bleed into the instrument blocks for clarity
  • Includes functionality to heal line gaps when an inline symbol is removed
  • Generate a Bill of Material (BOM) for valves from a single drawing, a selected set of drawings or from all the drawings in the project
  • Generates lists for instruments, line numbers, and equipment from a single drawing, a selected set of drawings or from all the drawings in the project
  • Make global changes to valve and instrument attribute data to reduce edit time and ensure data accuracy
  • Comes with an automated layering system that lets you customize layering schemes to conform with your standards
  • Allows you to override current pipe spec when special components are needed (this flexibility in software operation is very useful in real world design requirements)
  • Destination control allows you to specify where valves are to be shipped – to the field or any number of fabrication shops
  • Uses system toggles to change how the program functions; toggles allow you to customize the influx of spec information and symbol appearance to coincide with company standards.
  • Conforms to ANSI/ISA standards
  • Piping specs support pipe sizes from 1/8” to 80” (3mm to 2000mm)
