This task shows you how to create and route a piping line or I&C loop. | ||
A piping line (or I & C loop) can

You can route between equipment or components, from equipment or component
to free space and vice versa, or entirely in free space. See
Routing Piping Lines and I & C Loops.
A piping line is used for carrying fluids. An I & C loop (Instrumentation & Control loop) provides a control mechanism over a piping line. Enabling dynamic connectors in a component allows for automatic creation of connectors during the design process. |
