MINIVAP ON-LINE The RVP profit analyzer The MINIVAP-ONLINE from GRABNER INSTRUMENTS is a process monitoring analyzer used for the determination of vapor pressure of gasoline, crude oil, LPG and NGL. Its core shares the same triple expansion measurement method, which is used in the MINIVAP laboratory analyzers. Based on the results of extensive ASTM interlaboratory measurements, the MINIVAP ON-LINE outperforms other vapor pressure process analyzers in precision and helps refineries save millions of dollars each year. BENEFITS One analyzer for all vapor pressure standards MINIVAP ON-LINE is a highly robust and precise process analyzer which directly measures RVP, TVP and vapor/liquid ratio according to all major industry standards – in a single analyzer. Quality inspection of fuels Only the triple expansion method allows for monitoring the amount of dissolved gas delivered in a batch of fuel. A high value indicates a leakage in the system or several light ends included within the batch. Protect your investment. Highest profits through best precision MINIVAP ON-LINE performs RVP expansion methods, which considerably improves the quality of your measurements and reaches highest Round Robin proven precision. Blending as close as 0.3 kPa (0.05 psi) to vapor pressure limits is possible. Optimize your profits. New and improved maintenance MINIVAP ON-LINE incorporates an automatic piston lubrication and extensive self diagnostic testing system. The measurement cell is mounted with quick fittings and can be exchanged within minutes: Down time virtually eliminated. Automatic calibration with laboratory precision MINIVAP ON-LINE is automatically calibrated with onboard reference fluid, at programmed intervals, and calibration corrections are completed fully automatically for all measurements going forward. The result from the last calibration is always displayed together with the measured vapor pressure of the sample. No need to adjust correlation formulas or take offline samples to verify analyzer results against laboratory equipment. VAPOR PRESSURE

In the following example, normal Butane is blended into Unleaded Gasoline, while a maximum vapor pressure of 69 kPa has to be observed: BLENDING BUTANE RVP (Gasoline @ 37.8°C): Before: 62 kPa (9 psi) After: 69 kPa (10 psi) Price per Barrel: n-Butane: $ 65.1 Gasoline: $ 81.9 PROFIT AND PRECISION PER METHOD Reproducibility (kPa) Possible profit per 100 000 barrels Possible profit per YEAR (volume: 100k bpd) Triple Expansion Method Interested in replacing your old RVP analyzer?
