Revit Add-on

Our selection software supports export of the selected equipment in IFC format, including all technical information (weight, air flow rate, pressure, efficiency, power input etc.) with active connectors for connecting all ducts and media. If both Autodesk Revit and our Selection software are installed on the computer, IFC import option is automatically added also with direct two-way connection between Selection software and Revit. If you import IFC file to Revit without Selection software installed, it’s required to install Revit add-on that provides seamless import. Please download such add-on from the link below.

  1. Current project
    Entering general identification data about the designer, customer, project name etc.
     
  2. Operation point
    Operation point
    • Entering all parameters – airflow, available pressure, temperatures
    • Entering unit application – heating, cooling, mixing, bypass, water temperatures, ....
    • Automatic selection of suitable unit – offer of suitable units and choice of criteria-based selection.

     
  3. Unit configuration
