8.7 "Connector table" tab
Evaluation
COMOS proceeds as follows to evaluate the "Connector table" tab in the engineering data:
Step Action
1 COMOS uses the function codes to check whether the
pipe or the valve is included in the list of special parts.
2 The connection types of the pipe are determined.
3 The contact faces and connection types of the valve
are determined.
4 COMOS checks which connecting part is set in the
connector table of the subclass for this combination.
5 The function code of the flange is evaluated and the
pipe part type is determined this way.
6 COMOS determines which preselected component is
set for the weld neck flange pipe part type.
7 COMOS determines which connection types and con‐
tact faces are set at the preselected component.
Step by step, COMOS then connects the pipe parts via their connectors. The connector tables
are evaluated again in this step and the required connecting parts are created:
Connection type combination
● Output of "Pipe_1": ButtWeld End
● Input of "Weld neck flange_1": ButtWeld End
● Output of "Weld neck flange_1": Flanged
ends/EN form B2
● Input of "valve": Flanged ends/EN form B2
● Output of "valve": Flanged ends/EN form B2
● Input of "Weld neck flange_2": ButtWeld End
● Output of "Weld neck flange_2": ButtWeld
End
● Input of "Pipe_2": ButtWeld End

Construction weld COMOS determines the function code of the con‐
struction weld and inserts the preselected compo‐
nent of the corresponding pipe part type:
"Construction weld_1"
Flat gasket COMOS determines the function code of the flat
gasket and inserts the preselected component of
the corresponding pipe part type:
"Flat gasket_1"
Flat gasket COMOS determines the function code of the flat
gasket and inserts the preselected component of
the corresponding pipe part type:
"Flat gasket_2"
Construction weld COMOS determines the function code of the con‐
struction weld and inserts the preselected compo‐
nent of the corresponding pipe part type:
"Construction weld_2"
