Horizontal pipe

Horizontal pipe

A SCADA symbol widget that draws a horizontal pipe segment and animates what happens inside it: fluid presence, flow, flow direction and speed, plus a leak indicator. Ships as a built-in SCADA symbol in ThingsBoard.

Behaviors

Each behavior is a value the symbol reads at runtime. None of them is bound out of the box (the default action is Do nothing) — point every behavior you need at a timeseries key, an attribute, or an RPC call on the target device.

Behavior	Type	Default	Effect
Fluid presence	Boolean	Absent	Fills the pipe with fluid
Flow presence	Boolean	Absent	Animates the fluid along the pipe
Flow direction	Boolean	Forward	true — forward, false — reverse
Flow animation speed	Double	1	Speed multiplier of the flow animation
Leak	Boolean	Absent	Shows the leak visualization

Leak wins over Fluid presence: while a leak is reported the fluid is hidden, and the flow animation stops.

How to customize

The widget has a basic configuration mode, so the target device, the value source of every behavior, the fluid and pipe colors and the background can be set without touching the advanced widget config. The symbol itself can be copied and edited in the SCADA symbol editor when the geometry or the rendering logic has to change.
