The Flange Equipment details page contains 9 sections:

  1. Details – general information about Flange Equipment.

  2. Flange Design – the Design tab contains the input fields for the 3 different Flange calculations (including Tightening data and Recommended Spec), while the calculation results are shown on subsequent output tabs. See Flange Equipment Design and Calculations. 

  3.  Hierarchy.

  4. Jobs – list of Jobs (to be) performed on this Flange Equipment. Here Jobs can be created, and Flanges can be Assigned to a Job.

  5. Condition History - list of ECHs resulting from past Jobs. A new ECH can also be created from here.

  6. Specs – Flange spec data.

  7. Description – description of the Flange Equipment.

  8. Drawings and Documents.

  9. Attachments.

Flange Design and Calculations

In addition to the Torque / Tension calculations, the following Flange calculations are also supported in IMS FCM (for more information see Flange Equipment Design and Calculations):

  • WRC538 – WRC Bulletin 538 Analysis

  • ASME Section VIII - ASME Sec VIII Div 1 2019 App 2

  • PCC-1 - ASME PCC-1 Appendix O Analysis

The Flange Design section can be used to input the data for these calculations. The Design tab contains all the input fields (including Tightening data and Recommended Specs). Each calculation’s results are shown on a separate output tab.

Note: Tightening data is mandatory for performing Jobs. It is also possible to import this data while creating Flange Equipment.

Reports

In addition to the normal Actions buttons, Custom Reports can also be generated from here.
