5. Process results = Lab results During the last 25 years, GRABNER INSTRUMENTS MINIVAP lab vapor pressure testers were installed in almost every refinery all over the world. Because the MINIVAP ON-LINE analyzer is using exactly the same measuring principle, there is no need to validate measurement results against laboratory tests: Results are just as precise and reliable as results are with the best standard compliant vapor pressure laboratory instrument – the MINIVAP lab analyzer. Modular design MINIVAP ON-LINE MINIVAP ON-LINE can be configured according to your needs: US or EU version Explosion proof or basic type 1 or 2 sample streams Gasoline, LPG or Crude Oil functionality STANDARD COMPLIANT VAPOR PRESSURE Process Analyzer The MINIVAP ON-LINE from GRABNER INSTRUMENTS is a process monitoring analyzer for the determination of vapor pressure of gasoline, life and dead crude oil, LPG and NPG. Its core shares the same triple expansion measurement method, which is used in our laboratory analyzers. Based on the results of extensive ASTM interlaboratory measurements, the MINIVAP outperforms the strictest vapor pressure standards and helps refineries to save millions of dollars per year. Features US-EPA and CARB approved Grabner method MINIVAP ON-LINE incorporates an automatic piston lubrication and extensive self-diagnostics, thus virtually no operator work is required. For best performance in ex-areas, a nitrogen feed line is recommended. For fast and easy service of the MINIVAP ON-LINE our customers recommend to purchase the additional measurement cell along with the analyzer. The measurement cell is mounted with quick fittings and can be exchanged in 1 minute! No down times are experienced in process! Single Stream Only 10 ml of sample for a complete measurement CRUDE OIL Dual Stream Single Stream Dual Stream Multiple sample streams 7 minutes cycle time Built-in diagnostic and safety features Maintenance free sample conditioning systems - self cleaning filters Data transfer via serial interface RS 232 Optional sample recovery system Optional analyzer shelters Optional 4-20 mA analog data output Peltier cooling ASCII code and MODBUS communication protocol 6.

No down time in process Cell can be mounted on any MINIVAP ON-LINE analyzer without additional calibration Easy attachment to a service unit for error diagnosis and recalibration ASTM D6378 (Triple Expansion), D5191 (DVPE), D4953 (corr.) and D323 (corr.) ASTM D5188 (V/L) without air saturation EN 13016-1, IP 394 (ASVP) EN 13016-2, IP 409 (AVP) Vapor Pressure of Crude Oil Technical Details / specifications Temperature Range Data can be transferred automatically to a monitoring system via preinstalled MODBUS RTU to be displayed on a screen. Alternatively, 4-20 mA data transfer is possible via modem or central controller unit. With this information readily accessible, corrections (e.g. for the blending system) can be initiated immediately, if a fixed limit is exceeded – for multiple MINIVAP ON-LINE analyzers in one central command place!

Triple Expansion for direct measurement of physical properties without sample preparation Best precision gives the MINIVAP ON-LINE an unbeatable advantage over competition and makes the instrument a true profit analyzer. The innovative measuring technique leads to an improved accuracy allowing to blend as close as 0.3 kPa to vapor pressure limits. The manual sample preparation of cooling and air saturation required in former standards made it impossible to develop a standardized on-line equipment for vapor pressure compliance control. Single expansion analyzers who claim to comply with ASTM...
