A rotating pump rotor will rotate either clockwise or counter-clockwise to indicate that flow is occurring. The rotor is controlled via its SVG "id".

Animated pumps use SVG animation to provide smooth rotor rotation (regular pump rotors move in discrete steps). Also animated pump rotors only rotate clockwise and do not indicate direction. Other than for these limitions, the visual appearance of animated pump rotors is identical to the regular (non-animated) pump rotors. Animated pump rotors have a fixed rotation period of 5 seconds.
SVG animations are a comparitively new feature in web browsers and may not work correctly in all browser versions even if that browser supports (non-animated) SVG. Test all your target browsers to see if they will work for you. SVG animations may place significant CPU load on the PC used to display them. Avoid using a large number of simultaneous animations and check the resulting CPU load on the target PC.

A pipe is similar to a pilot light in that it changes colour under the control of its "id". A pipe is simply a rectangle, and can be re-sized and stretched as necessary. Pipes are provided in both horizontal and vertical forms for convenience, but can be rotated to any angle required.
