Is anybody aware of a pressure relief valve manufacturer that can do large valves (say 6" flange connections) suitable for Hydrogen service? We are in the process of designing a liquid ring hydrogen compressor and have run into a problem sourcing a non cast iron valve that would be suitable for...
Folks,
Have kind of a strange one that I find rather unnecessary, but I'll throw it out there anyway. Is anybody aware of a way to swap the values, top for bottom, on a limit dimension such as is posted in the attached image? In the image I am looking to swap things so that 13.031 is on top and...
Does anybody know where the Balloon Non-visible component option moved to in 2012? As I recall, in 2011, it was in the balloon property manager, but I can't find it to save my soul at this moment.

Is anybody having issues updating the Hole Wizard with new records in Toolbox for 2012 SP 2? We've spent almost an hour trying to add an M75x2.0 bottom tap thread to a couple of our standards without success. We can alter a record and everything works but cannot add a record. This is specific...
Has anybody come across the problem the reference sets used for parts in an assembly are different from one parent refrence set to the next. I just dropped an assembly into a nother assembly, constrained as needed, then realized that I wanted the Model refernce set instead of the Entire Part...
I need some help figureing out how I did somethign once. I have a counter bore hole that I created with the Hole feature. In my drawing I did a "Drafting Callout" that pulled all of the necessary dimensions for the counter bore and put them into a single callout. I cannot figure out how I did it...

Looking for somebody with a better practical grasp of NEC requirements for Class 1 Div 1 locations than the group I work with. We have two switches within 18" of each other. Under normal circumstances each switch would require its own conduit seal fitting. If both can be reached by a single...

Guys,
Need some help getting some data to a client. I've got a massive part file (68 Mb) that is a converted assembly. I need to get it ported into a format he can open with either Revit or ACAD 2010. Tried a .sat, he says that it appears to import but once complete is blank. Says that...
Bonus points and a star to the individual that can find the above option in SW 2010 (I'm guessing all versions but SP 3.0 preferred). I can't seem to find it anywhere and I don't know when they took it out.

Does anybody have a suggestion for a decent P&ID CAD package. I'm looking at the possibility of getting something better than AutoCAD 200i set up in the office to handle our P&ID needs and right now all I've found is AutoCAD PID 2010. It's nice, but I need to look at alternatives to have a few...

Have any of the WPDM users had an issue with SW losing write access to files in between closes or crashes. PDM says you own it, but SW thinks it's read-only.
