Title
Manual of Petroleum Measurement Standards Chapter 8 - Sampling Section 4 - Standard Practice for Sampling and Handling of Fuels for Volatility Measurement
American Petroleum Institute
Publication Date:
Dec 1, 2004
Scope:
(Footnote *)
This practice covers procedures and equipment for obtaining, mixing,
and handling representative
samples of volatile fuels for the purpose of testing for compliance
with the standards set forth
for volatility related measurements applicable to light fuels. The
applicable dry vapor pressure
equivalent range of this practice is 13 to 105 kPa (2 to 16 psia).
This practice is applicable to the sampling, mixing, and handling of
reformulated fuels including
those containing oxygenates.
The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard
except in some cases where
drawings may show inch-pound measurements which are customary for that
equipment.
This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns,
if any, associated with its
use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to
establish appropriate safety and
health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory
limitations prior to use.
Footnote * - A Summary of Changes section appears at the end of this
