Organization: API
Publication Date: 1 October 1995
Status: inactive
Page Count: 27
scope:

This standard covers the handling, mixing, and condi¬tioning procedures required to ensure that a representative sample of the liquid petroleum or petroleum product is de¬livered from the primary sample container/receiver into the analytical test apparatus or into intermediate containers. For sampling procedures, refer to MPMS Chapters 8.1 and 8.2. MPMS Chapter 8.4 should be referred to for the mixing and handling of light fuels for volatility measurement.

Throughout this standard, the term "petroleum" will be used to denote petroleum and petroleum products normally associated with the petroleum industry.
