Standard Current

Liquefield petroleum gas and light hydrocarbons. Determination of density or relative density. Pressure hydrometer method.

The prescribed apparatus shall not be used for materials having gauge vapour pressures higher than 1,4 MPa (absolute vapour pressure 1,5 MPa) at the test temperature. Alternative calibration procedures are described, but only the one using a certified hydrometer is suitable for the determination of density to be used in calculations of qualities for custody transfer or fiscal purposes.

ZOOM ON ... the Requirements department

To comply with a standard, you need to quickly understand its issues in order to determine its impact on your activity.

The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:

  • mandatory clauses to satisfy,
  • non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.

The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document "ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents" as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.

With Requirements, quickly access the main part of the normative text!
