Problem with Automatic Flushing Valve Fitting in Irrigation Block

Post by design04 »

Hello everyone,

I just noticed that it is now possible to automatically add a flushing valve when creating an irrigation block. After testing, I found an issue.

If the zone pipe size does not match the flushing valve size, the fitting is displayed incorrectly. For example, when I set the zone pipe to 2" and connect it to a flushing valve of 1.5", the program does not show the required Reducer 2"x1.5".

How can I resolve this issue without adding junctions or changing the zone pipe size?

The issue here is that IRRICAD is looking for a coupler, or a reducing elbow, to complete the fittings at this junction.
For the connection between the 50mm (2") elbow and the 40mm (1.5") riser pipe, a reducing bush (50 M S x 40 F S) present and selectable in the Couplers component group will solve this error.

I trust this helps.
