Reid Vapour Pressure Apparatus

Reid Vapour Pressure Apparatus

RVP Bath controls temperature with ±0.2°F (±0.1°C) precision, and determines vapor pressure of gases by immersion of vapor pressure cylinders at the proper depth per ASTM specifications. Dual LED displays provide actual and set-point temperature values in °F/°C format. Holds up to four pressure cylinders. Bath is made of a double-wall construction with fiberglass insulated stainless steel tank. A sturdy 1′ (25mm) flange permits flush-mount bench-top installation for easy access to the bath interior.

RVP Gauges have a large easy-to-read 4-1/2″ (11.4 cm) diameter dial. Accurate to ±0.5% of scale range. Gauges feature an aluminum case with brass handle, blow-out back, and 1/4″ NPT(M) connection. Sold separately.

RVP Cylinders have polished stainless steel construction. Use one-opening cylinder to test gasoline and other products having a vapor pressure below 26 psi. Two-opening cylinder is for liquid petroleum products and liquefied petroleum gas products (LPG) with a vapor pressure above 26 psi. The two-opening cylinder includes straight-through ball valve and a needle valve. For LPG testing, order the bleeder valve assembly for use with the two-opening cylinder. Sold separately.
