IfcFlowMovingDeviceType

Definition from IAI: The element type IfcFlowMovingDeviceType defines a list of commonly shared property set definitions of a flow moving device and an optional set of product representations. It is used to define a flow moving device specification (i.e. the specific product information, that is common to all occurrences of that product type).

> NOTE: The product representations are defined as representation maps (at the level of the supertype IfcTypeProduct, which get assigned by an element occurrence instance through the IfcShapeRepresentation.Item[1] being an IfcMappedItem.

A flow moving type is used to define the common properties of a flow moving device that may be applied to many occurrences of that type. A flow moving device is a device that is used to produce a pressure differential in a distribution system, such as a pump, fan, compressor, etc. Flow moving types (or the instantiable subtypes) may be exchanged without being already assigned to occurrences.

The occurrences of the IfcFlowMovingDeviceType are represented by instances of IfcFlowMoving or its subtypes.
