You can use the Duct Transition Utility to connect two parallel ducts, duct fittings, or MvParts of different shapes, sizes or elevations. The DTU builds a duct transition - offset fitting to connect the two parts.
Based on the DIN standards, the following are the parts and shape combinations between which you can create a duct transition - offset fitting:
- Round to Round
- Round to Rectangular
- Round to Oval
- Rectangular to Rectangular
- Rectangular to Oval
- Rectangular to Round
- Oval to Oval
