VP VISION |
 |
MINIVAP VP Vision is a
highly versatile portable vapor pressure tester that
features best-in-class precision and a pressure
range of 0-2000 kPa. The instrument is designed as a
multi-purpose analyzer and measures regular
gasolines, jet fuels and crude oils, high pressure
LPG or low volatility chemicals. The model VPL
Vision is designed for testing low vapor pressures
of chemicals, flavors and fragrances, and fuels in
the pressure range from 0 - 150 kPa. |
Engineered for Excellence
MINIVAP VP Vision measures gasoline, jet fuel, crude oil, LPG and
solvents. The analyzer provides a wide pressure range of 0 - 2000 kPa,
without compromising precision. Long-term testing has demonstrated an
unmatched repeatability of less than 0.2 kPa. The newly developed
Grabner 2D-Correction™ (273 points) and exact piston positioning
guarantee that accurate and precise results are received over the full
measuring range. MINIVAP VP Vision incorporates Grabner´s Sampling Pro™
valve design, which during ruggedness tests proved to be the best-in-
class piston based design for minimizing cross contamination between
various sample types.
Methods
included in MINIVAP VP Vision
ASTM D6378
Vapor Pressure of Gasoline and Petrochemicals (VPx)
Grabner´s "Triple Expansion Method" with determination of the dissolved
air in the sample. No cooling and air Saturation required!
ASTM D5191
DVPE Dry Vapor Pressure Equivalent (w/ EPA and CARB correlation
formulas)
Standard "Mini-Method" measured against vacuum and a correlation formula
for the calculation of the DVP. Requires sample preparation, including
cooling of the sample to 0°C (32°F) and triple air saturation prior to
the measurement.
ASTM D6377
Vapor Pressure of Crude Oil (VPCRx)
"Single-Expansion Method" for vapor pressure of Crude Oil developed by
GRABNER INSTRUMENTS. Better precision than classical ASTM D323 RVP
method, ASTM correlation formula to D323 available. Does not require
sample preparation: Saves time, increases precision and eliminates
operator bias.
ASTM D6897
Vapor Pressure of LPG up to 2000 kPa
Easy, quick, fully automatic and accurate measurement of liquefied
petroleum gas. Replaces the manual bomb method ASTM D1267. ASTM D6897
eliminates manual operation and cleaning and minimizes sample waste.
Yields results in excellent correlation with ASTM D1267, but with a
highly improved precision.
ASTM D5188
V/L-Ratio (TV/L)
Determines V/L ratio of non-viscous liquids including hydrocarbons like
gasoline, solvents and other highly volatile compounds. Instrument
performs fully automatically, providing results in minutes. No
additional equipment is required.
Fast Mode™
ASTM D5188 & D5191 Fast Mode™ Method
Runs ASTM D5188 and D5191 directly after each other.
EN 13016 - 1
Air Saturated Vapor Pressure
EN 13016 - 2
Absolute Vapor Pressure
IP 394, 409, 481
IP Methods for gasoline and crude oil
JIS K2258-2
Japanese standard method for gasoline
SHT 0769
Chinese standard method for gasoline
SHT 0794
Chinese standard test method for Vapor Pressure of Petroleum Products
(Mini Method)
SNT 2932
Determination of Vapor Pressure of Chemicals – Triple Expansion Method
GOST 52340
Russian / CIS standard method for crude oils
"VOC" Methods
Direct and Indirect Low Volatility Methods
Static methods for determining the absolute vapor pressure required for
safety data sheets. Both methods yield results comparable to the static
ASTM D2879 Isoteniscope method, but do not require sample evacuation
prior to testing.
