FITTINGS AND VALVES INPUT
For number of fittings and valves:
Use Manual Input underneath
Use automatic Complexity correlation
OutSide Battery Limits lines (OSBL), simple
OutSide Battery Limits Lines (OSBL), normal
Average Complexity
InSide Battery Limits (ISBL), manifold type
InSide Battery Limits (ISBL), very complex
