WinSprink / SpriCalc
(N): A legend explaining the abbreviations for the fittings is now displayed below the table. (B=elbow, W=angle, etc.)
(V): The output of the Hungarian sprinkler has been changed. Now the pipe, sprinkler, and node number are output. For example: R17-4 / S2 / 117 (#32661)
Version 5.03

(V): Input instructions for the Darcy-Weisbach method
(N): Floor management: Projects with multiple floors can be assigned to floors. These can be hidden from view as needed to ensure a clear overview, even in views.
(N): Flow directions are displayed as arrows in the model – can be hidden using a separate "Flow direction" layer.
(N): Flow time calculation possible from a specific valve
(N): Self-entered fittings on pipes are displayed visually via their own layer "Fittings" – collision check during calculation in case of inconsistencies for self-defined fittings.

WinSprink
(F): In rare cases, an incorrect least favorable sprinkler may be displayed. If the operating point is determined as the initial pressure when calculating the network, small deviations may cause a different sprinkler to be determined as the least favorable. This is then shown on the report. However, the flow rate and pressure are correct.
CAD in general
(F): If an additional length of 1 mm (e.g., 4.333 m) was entered for a pipe, this is incorrectly specified as a special component in the installation list. This can be avoided by rounding the special length to 1 cm (e.g., 4.330 m).

(N): In the project data dialog box, the pump characteristics are now divided into groups, similar to the dialog box in WinSprink or the program for default settings.
(N): If a scale other than the calculated scale is entered for the pump characteristic curve graph, this scale is saved in the Revit project together with the number of the selected pump.
(N): When switching languages (German/English), you don't have to translate the shared parameters. This saves time on very large projects.
(N): If you change the list of system types, the list of families is automatically adjusted.

SpriCad for Revit
(N): There are now two ways to determine the diameter of a pipe.
- As before, use the nominal diameter of the pipe to determine the inner diameter from the equivalent length table.
- Search directly for the entry in the equivalent length table using the inner diameter of the pipe. The pipe is assigned its own (fictitious) DN value in order to determine the correct inner diameter.
(N): Some dialogues have been improved in terms of handling.
Version 4.22
Release date: March 24, 2022

The dialog box now contains two buttons for all characteristic curves and suitable characteristic curves, respectively. There is only one menu item for this, or in the WinSprink program, only one button in the project data.
(N): You can now specify a scale for the grid.
This is saved in the WinSprink program, but not in the SpriCalc program (in conjunction with CAD).

(N): When a calculation or refresh is started, only the sprinklers in the effective area are checked for complete data. If no effective area is specified, all sprinklers are still checked.
(N): In addition to the button for listing ALL sprinklers, there is another button that only displays the sprinklers in the effective area.
(N): In the Sprinkler dialog box, you can specify a name for the sprinkler family that will be used in the log instead of S1, S2, etc.
