Model Reference Manual

Data Consistency Checking : Diagnostic Messages from Data Consistency Checks : Component-Specific Diagnostics

The following errors apply to individual piping components and, in some cases, to their adjacent connections. Some of the errors also apply to hanger components and/or to Nozzles.

All-Component Diagnostics

These are applicable to any component, regardless of its position in the network:

D100 REFERENCE SPREF UNSET

This probably means that the designer has forgotten to select the piping component.

D110 REFERENCE SPREF REFERS TO A NON-EXISTENT SPCOM

This may occur if part of the specification has been deleted.

D120 SPREF PROBLEM, CATREF IN SPCOM IS UNSET

This indicates an error in the Specification.

D130 SPREF PROBLEM, CATREF IN THE SPCOM REFERS TO NON-EXISTENT CATALOGUE COMPONENT

This may occur if part of the Catalogue has been deleted or if the CATREF in the SPCOM is unset.

D140 SPREF PROBLEM, GTYPE OF CATALOGUE COMPONENT IS NOT SAME AS TYPE OF MODEL DATA COMP0NENT

The GTYPE of the Catalogue component must be the same as the type of the piping Component in the design data.

D150 CATREF PROBLEM IN ACCESSING P-POINTS

An error has been found in accessing the p-points of the Catalogue component pointed to by CATREF.

D160 REFERENCE CATREF UNSET

This applies only to Nozzles, for which the CATREF must be set.

D170 REFERENCE CATREF REFERS TO A NON-EXISTENT CATALOGUE COMPONENT

This may occur if part of the Catalogue has been deleted. It applies only to Nozzles.

D200 ARRIVE P-POINT NOT IN PTSET OF CATALOGUE COMPONENT

The arrive p-point number does not exist in the PTSET of the Catalogue Component.

D210 LEAVE P-POINT NOT IN PTSET OF CATALOGUE COMPONENT

The leave p-point number does not exist in the PTSET of the Catalogue Component.

D300 REFERENCE CREF NOT SET

Multi-way Components may be left unconnected only if the connection type of the relevant p-point is OPEN, CLOS, VENT, DRAN or NULL.

D310 REFERENCE CREF POINTS TO NON-EXISTENT BRANCH

This may occur if the Branch that is pointed to by the CREF has been deleted.

D320 BAD CREF RETURN REFERENCE

This may occur if the Branch that is pointed to by the CREF has been reconnected to another terminal.

D330 REFERENCE CRFA n NOT SET

An entry in the connection reference array may only remain unset if the corresponding p-point in the Catalogue does not exist or if the connection type of the corresponding point is VENT, OPEN, CLOS or NULL.

D340 REFERENCE CRFA n POINTS TO NON-EXISTENT BRANCH

This may occur if the Branch pointed to by the nth reference in the connection reference array has been deleted.

D350 BAD CRFA n RETURN REFERENCE

This may occur if the element pointed to by the nth reference in the connection reference array has been reconnected to a third Branch.

D400 ARRIVE TUBE [ROD] LESS THAN TUBE [ROD] MINIMUM. ACTUAL TUBE [ROD] LENGTH IS ...

The distance between the arrive p-point of this component and the leave p-point of the previous component (or Head) is greater than zero and less than the specified minimum tube [rod] length (default: 100mm).

D410 BAD ARRIVE GEOMETRY + details of geometric errors

The position and direction of the arrive p-point of this component are not correct with respect to the leave p-point of the previous component (or Head). The error could be caused by incorrect positioning of this component, the previous component (or Head) or both.

The following illustration shows some typical examples:

D420 BAD ARRIVE BORE [ROD DIAMETER]

The bore of the arrive p-point of this component is not equal to the bore of the preceding tube or, if this component is not preceded by tube, to the bore of the leave p-point of the previous component (or HBORE).

D430 BAD ARRIVE CONNECTION TYPE

The connection type of the arrive p-point of this component is not compatible with the preceding tube or, if this component is not preceded by tube, to the connection type of the leave p-point of the previous component (or HCONN).

D500 REFERENCE LSTUBE [LSROD] UNSET

The user has probably forgotten to select the piping/hanger Component.

D510 REFERENCE LSTUBE [LSROD] REFERS TO A NON-EXISTENT SPCOM

This may occur if part of the Specification has been deleted.

D520 LSTUBE [LSROD] PROBLEM, CATREF IN SPCOM IS UNSET

This indicates an error in the Specification.

D530 LSTUBE PROBLEM, CATREF IN THE SPCOM REFERS TO NON-EXISTENT CATALOGUE COMPONENT

This may occur if part of the Catalogue has been deleted or if the CATREF in the SPCOM is unset.

D540 LSTUBE PROBLEM, GTYPE OF CATALOGUE COMPONENT IS NOT SET TO TUBE

The component pointed to by LSTUBE is not of type TUBE in the Catalogue.

D550 LSTUBE [LSROD] PROBLEM IN ACCESSING PPOINTS

There is a Catalogue problem in accessing a p-point of the tube/rod pointed to by LSTUBE [LSROD].

D600 LEAVE BORE [DIAMETER] NOT SAME AS BORE [DIAMETER] OF LSTUBE [LSROD]

The bore of the leave p-point of this Component is not the same as the bore of the tube/rod following the Component.

D610 LEAVE CONNECTION TYPE NOT COMPATIBLE WITH CONNECTION TYPE OF LSTUBE [LSROD]

The connection type of the leave p-point of this Component is not compatible with the tube/rod following the component.

D620 INSULATION CANNOT BE SELECTED USING LEAVE BORE

There is no suitable insulation in the Catalogue for the combination of temperature TEMP and the bore of the leave p-point.

D630 ATTACHMENT TYPE INVALID - MUST BE ONE OF FLOW, XXXX, SSSS, CCCC, CCNN, INPP, WELD, HANG, PENI, NUL OR NULL

The user has set an incorrect TYPE attribute for an ATTA.

D740 ANGLE OF COMPONENT IS GREATER THAN MAXIMUM ANGLE SPECIFIED IN SPREF

The designed angle of a Pulled Bend, Elbow or Weld is greater than is allowed by the SPECs.

D740 ANGLE OF COMPONENT IS LESS THAN MINIMUM ANGLE SPECIFIED IN SPREF

The designed angle of a Pulled Bend, Elbow or Weld is less than is allowed by the SPECs.

D740 ANGLE GREATER THAN m DEGREES. ACTUAL ANGLE IS n

The designed angle of a Pulled Bend or Elbow is greater than the maximum angle specified by the user (see TOLERANCE MAXANGLE).

D800 Reference DETAIL unset

This refers to the DETA attribute of the SPREF of the branch component.

Without it no SKEY will be available for that element within ISODRAFT.

D820 SKEY not set

D840 SKEY #N not known. Assumed to be user defined

(Refer to Symbol Keys for a list of valid SKEYs)

End-Component Diagnostics

These are applicable only to the last component in a Branch:

E700 LEAVE TUBE LESS THAN TUBE MINIMUM. ACTUAL TUBE LENGTH IS ...

The distance between the leave p-point of the current component and the tail position, TPOS, is greater than zero and less than the specified minimum tube length (default: 100mm).

E710 BAD LEAVE GEOMETRY

The position and direction of the leave p-point of this component are not correct with respect to the position, TPOS, and direction, TDIR, of the tail. The error could be caused by incorrect positioning of this component, the Tail, or both.

E720 LEAVE BORE NOT SAME AS TBORE

The bore of the leave p-point of this component is not the same as the tail bore, TBORE.

E730 LEAVE CONNECTION TYPE NOT COMPATIBLE WITH TCONN

The connection type of the leave p-point of this component is not compatible with the tail connection type TCONN.
