32、 1. Scope* 1.1 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 appli- cable to light fuels. The applicable dry vapor p

33、ressure equiva- lent range of this practice is 13 to 105 kPa (2 to 16 psia). 1.2 This practice is applicable to the sampling, mixing, and handling of reformulated fuels including those containing oxygenates. 1.3 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard except in some cases wh

34、ere drawings may show inch-pound measurements which are customary for that equip- ment. 1.4 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 appro- priate safety and health practi

35、ces and determine the applica- bility of regulatory limitations prior to use. 2.

38、Practice D5854) 3. Terminology 3.1 Denitions of Terms Specic to This Standard: 3.1.1 bottom sample, na sample obtained from the mate- rial at the bottom of the tank, container, or line at its lowest point. 3.1.1.1 DiscussionIn practice the term bottom sample has a variety of meanings. As a result, i

39、t is recommended that the exact sampling location (for example, 15 cm 6 in. from the bottom) should be specied when using this term. 3.1.2 dead legs, nsections of pipe that, by design, do not allow for the ow of material through them. 3.1.2.1 DiscussionDead legs are not suitable for obtaining repres

40、entative samples. 3.1.3 relief lines, nsections of pipe that lead to a pressure/ vacuum relief valve. 3.1.3.1 DiscussionRelief lines are not suitable for obtain- ing representative samples. 3.1.4 stand pipes, nvertical sections of pipe or tubing extending from the gaging platform to near the bottom

41、of tanks that are equipped with external or internal oating roofs. Stand pipes also may be found on ships and barges. 3.1.4.1 DiscussionStand pipes which are not slotted or perforated will not yield representative samples. Further infor- mation on proper stand pipe design is given in 6.4.3. 1 This p

42、ractice is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee D02 on Petroleum Products, Liquid Fuels, and Lubricants and the API Committee on Petroleum Measurement, and is the direct responsibility of Subcommittee D02.02 /COMQ on Hydrocarbon Measurement for Custody Transfer (Joint ASTM-API). This practice ha

43、s been approved by the sponsoring committees and accepted by the Cooperating Societies in accordance with established procedures. This practice was issued as a joint ASTM-API standard in 1995.

46、States 13.1.5 Other sample denitions are given in Practice D4057/ API MPMS Chapter 8.1. 4. Summary of Practice 4.1 It is necessary that the samples be representative of the fuel in question. The basic principle of each sampling proce- dure involves obtaining a sample in such a manner and from such l

47、ocations in the tank or other container that the sample will be representative of the fuel. A summary of the sampling procedures and their application is presented in Table 1. Each procedure is suitable for sampling a material under denite storage, transportation, or container conditions. The precau

48、- tions required to ensure the representative character of the samples are numerous and depend upon the tank, carrier, container, or line from which the sample is being obtained, the type and cleanliness of the sample container, and the sampling procedure that is to be used. 5. Signicance and Use 5.

49、1 The dry vapor pressure equivalent (DVPE) of volatile motor fuels is regulated by federal and state air pollution control agencies. In order to meet the letter of these regulations, it is necessary to sample, handle, and test these products in the precise manner as prescribed in this practice. 6. General Comments 6.1 Sample Containers: 6.1.1 Sample containers are clear or brown glass bottles, uorinated high-density polyethylene bottles, or metal cans. The clear glass bottle is advantageous because it is easily examined visually for cleanliness, and also ma
