Nope, already there is a option available in CII, i.e is Free node. You have to specify the node in your hanger program, and it 'll consider.

You can adjust the hot load...but before you should know what exactly the cold load. Take this instance, my cold load is 400 kg, the spring rate selected by CII is 10 kg/mm, and my movement is 10mm vertical. So, during operating condition the spring will take 500 KG.

In the above condition my loads on the nozzle are not within the limit..then i ll try to increase my hot load say 700kg to meet the requirement, then i have to select 30kg/mm spring rate if it is available.

The above will be a acceptable practice.. In any condition the cold load will not vary.

But my vendors are selecting randomly say 1000 kg hot load and they arriving 600kg cold load.


Hope you will understand my situation.
