The OpenPlant development team is pleased to announce the availability of Modeler CONNECT Edition Update 7 (10.07.00.32) is a 3D CAD plant modeling software which uses ISO 15926 as an intrinsic data model as specified by the iRING user community.

OpenPlant CONNECT Edition is the first product in Bentley’s multi-discipline plant design solution to utilize iModelHub, Bentley’s cloud service that tracks all changes made to project designs and notifies users about the changes. iModelHub allows you to synchronize to and from particular timeline milestones and visualize, summarize, analyze, and interpret the impact of ongoing changes.

OpenPlant Modeler CONNECT Edition, the first 3D plant modeling software based on ISO 15926, is an accurate, rapid, design engineering solution for 3D plant design. It enhances project teams with mobile information, i-models, and support for multiple formats and data types, such as DGN, DWG, JT, point clouds, and PDF, to provide flexible design and review processes. It is both more versatile and productive than any existing "3-D piping" application. The OpenPlant Modeler CONNECT Edition includes SELECT CONNECTservices, new Azure-based services that provide comprehensive learning, mobility, and collaboration benefits to every Bentley application subscriber Optional Pre-requisite: Structural Synchronizer is required for ISM data interchange workflows only.



Bentley Systems is a software development company that supports the professional needs of those responsible for creating and managing the world’s infrastructure.

The minimum recommended workstation profile for running OpenPlant Modeler CONNECT Edition is:
Processor Intel® or AMD® processor 1.0 GHz or greater. OpenPlant Modeler is not supported on a CPU that does not support SSE2.
Memory 16 GB minimum, 32 GB recommended. More memory almost always improves performance, particularly when working with larger models.
Hard Disk 24 GB free disk space (which includes the 16 GB install footprint for a complete installation), 10-25 GB depending on additional installations such as Companion Features and Companion Products.
Video See the graphics card manufacturer for latest information on DirectX drivers. 512 MB of video RAM or higher is recommended. If insufficient video RAM or no graphics card supported by DirectX can be found, OpenPlant Modeler attempts to use software emulation. For optimal performance, graphics display color depth should be set to 24-bit or higher. When using a color depth setting of 16-bit, some inconsistencies will be noted. For more information on recommended workstation profiles for OpenPlant Modeler , see MicroStation System Requirements and Hardware Recommendations.
