# PLSS Equipment - Overview

> [!NOTE]
> This online manual explains the Equipment in IMS:
> 
> - How to interpret and use the Equipment Main Screen (Grid List).
> - How to interpret and use the Equipment Details Page.
> - How to create a new Equipment.

In [PLSS Hierarchy](/v410/docs/plss-workflow) you can see a visual depiction of this Hierarchy. Have a look to see where Equipment fits in!

The FLOC typically has specific operating parameters: flow rates, temperatures, pressures, fluid composition. Generally, each FLOC has one child, which is a piece of Equipment (with an Equipment ID). Each FLOC type can have one Equipment group assigned, e.g., to a PIG TRAP FLOC, a Pig Trap can be assigned only.

Equipment is registered in the **Equipment** Main Screen (see [Creating new PLSS Equipment](/v410/docs/creating-new-plss-equipment)).

The **Equipment** Main screen shows an overview grid, with a list of Equipment (see [PLSS Equipment - Main Screen](/v410/docs/plss-equipment-main-screen)). The Equipment Details Page is where the Equipment is defined (see [PLSS Equipment - Details Page](/v410/docs/plss-equipment-details-page-1)).
