ERAVAP for lpg: The LPG vapor pressure tester

The ERAVAP LPG is a dedicated vapor pressure tester engineered to meet the unique challenges of analyzing liquid petroleum gas. Building upon the proven technology of the standard ERAVAP, this specialized instrument features an extended pressure range of up to 2000 kPa to handle highly pressurized samples like propane and butane mixtures. Fully compliant with ASTM D6897, it provides crucial insights into the initial evaporation and safe storage conditions of LPG across a broad temperature range of 0 °C to 120 °C. Despite its expanded capabilities for LPG, it retains the flexibility to measure gasoline and crude oil according to common standards, making it an incredibly versatile, high performance asset for demanding refinery and distribution environments.

Key Features
