About Equipment Nozzles
A nozzle is either a Creo Parametric part or assembly that has a coordinate system representing a connection port. The following feature level parameters must be present in the port:
SIZE—A string parameter that stores the nozzle size, which is used to set up the default pipe size when a pipe routing starts from the port. It is also used for the size match checking between a nozzle and its connected pipeline. Nozzle sizes specified here must match those in the specification database.
END_TYPE—A string parameter that stores the nozzle end type, which is used to automate the fitting selection. It is also used for end compatibility checking between a nozzle and its connected pipeline.
SCH_RATE—A string parameter used to store the nozzle rating, which is used to automate the fitting selection. It is also used for end compatibility checking between a nozzle and its connected pipeline.
