Topics:

At Industrial Flow Solutions™, we’re always looking for ways to make our products more accessible and easier to integrate into your projects. That’s why we’re excited to announce that we’ve added BIM objects for our OverWatch® Direct In-Line Pumps to our website! Now, engineers, architects, and project teams can easily download and use Revit files directly from the BIMobject platform.

In this blog post, we’ll walk you through how to access and use these BIM objects, as well as how they can improve your workflow.

What Are BIM Objects?

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a digital representation of a building’s physical and functional characteristics. BIM objects are the digital models of various components, like pumps, valves, and pipes, that can be integrated into a BIM system. Using BIM objects allows for more accurate planning, design, and collaboration across your project team.

The OverWatch Direct In-Line Pump BIM objects are specifically designed for Revit users, making it easier for you to integrate our products into your building and infrastructure projects. These files contain detailed specifications and dimensions, allowing for efficient and accurate planning.

  3. Place and Customize the Pump
    Place the pump where needed in your design, and adjust its settings to match your project requirements. You can change its position, orientation, and parameters as necessary.
  4. Collaborate with Your Team
    Share the updated project file with your team members for review, feedback, or further design development.

Why Choose OverWatch Direct In-Line Pumps for Your Commercial Projects?

OverWatch® Direct In-Line Pump System is the perfect solution for commercial applications, offering a revolutionary approach to handling influent.
