Instrument performance check
Perform a reference measurement using ASTM D5191 / EN13016-1 or ASTM D6378 or ASTM
D6377 with n-Pentane (purity ≥ 99.5%) or ASTM D6897 with n-Butane (purity ≥ 99%) and fill
in the actual measured values:
ASTM D5191, EN13016-1 & ASTM D6377:
Pentane (cooled to 0°C and air saturated): P
tot
= 112.8 kPa ± 1.2 kPa
____________ kPa
ASTM D6378:
Pentane: VP4 (P
abs
) = 107.9 kPa ± 1.2 kPa
____________ kPa
ASTM D6897:
Butane: VP
tot
(37.8 °C, V/L 0.5:1) = 356.6 kPa ± 6.0 kPa
____________ kPa
