About This Product
Vapour pressure matters in the handling and performance of liquid petroleum and liquefied petroleum gas products. Vapour pressure cylinders are immersed in the temperature-controlled bath, and the pressure is read on the gauge dial. The one-opening cylinder is used for gasoline and other products with a vapour pressure below 26 psi.
