The scripts are small Python based programs for creating valves in Autodesk® AutoCAD® Plant 3D by entering few parameters. You can use all these scripts to create your own valve catalogs based on your standards.

After installation just run the PLANTREGISTERCUSTOMSCRIPTS command and restart Plant3D.

Then in the Spec Editor, you can open your project’s spec (YOUR PROJECT\Spec Sheets\...) and add the new valves to it from the provided SAMPLE catalog (YOUR CONTENT FOLDER\CPak Common\Python_Valve\V-X.XX\Python_Valve.pcat).

From here you can create as many valve catalogs as you want, just copy the provided sample catalog (rename it for example, because it can be overwritten in case of a reinstall!) and create as many new customizable valves as you want.

Happy customizing!

Installation:

The installer is automatically detecting the used Content Folder location for AutoCAD Plant 3D 2015 - 2025 64 bit versions. So the necessary files will be extracted to the default content center location or any other place you moved the content folder too. It is even working when using the shared content folder.

Register the new scripts inside the AutoCAD Plant 3D program with the PLANTREGISTERCUSTOMSCRIPTS command.

Then please restart the program.

Add your customized valves to your project's Spec Sheet (YOUR PROJECT\Spec Sheets\... )

Uninstallation:

• Open Programs and Features by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, clicking Programs, and then clicking Programs and Features.
• Select Python Valve, and then click Uninstall.
