Liquefied petroleum gases - Assessment of the dryness of propane - Valve freeze method (ISO 13758:1996)

Describes a procedure for the assessment of whether liquefied petroleum gas hydrocarbons consisting predominantly of propane and/or propene are sufficiently dry to avoid malfunctions in pressure-reducing systems installed in domestic and industrial applications.

Gaz de pétrole liquéfiés - Evaluation de la siccité du propane - Méthode de givrage de vanne (ISO 13758:1996)

La présente Norme internationale prescrit une procédure pour évaluer si les hydrocarbures de gaz de pétrole liquéfiés (GPL), composés surtout de propane et/ou de propène, sont suffisamment secs pour éviter les mauvais fonctionnements dans les systèmes de détente montés sur les installations domestiques, industrielles et automobiles de GPL. L'essai est normalement utilisé comme essai fonctionnel de type «passe/passe pas», dans lequel le comportement du produit est évalué dans une vanne régulatrice spécialement conçue et étalonnée.  
NOTES 1 Si un excès d'eau en solution est contenu dans les GPL soumis à l'essai, cela entraînera le givrage et le blocage des détendeurs, ce qui indique que le produit peut créer des mauvais fonctionnements au niveau des systèmes de détente commerciaux. 2 Si le produit soumis à l'essai contient un antigel, le temps nécessaire pour le givrage de la vanne d'essai n'est pas forcément fonction de la siccité, mais ce test peut donner une indication de la tendance du produit à provoquer le givrage des détendeurs dans les conditions de service sur le terrain.

Foreword
IS0 (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide
federation of national standards bodies (IS0 member bodies). The work of
preparing International Standards is normally carried out through IS0
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which
a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented
on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-
governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. IS0
collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission
(IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are
circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International
Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting
a vote.
International Standard IS0 13758 was prepared by Technical Committee
ISOTTC 28, Petroleum products and lubricants.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD @ IS0 IS0 13758: 1996(E)
Liquefied petroleum gases - Assessment of the dryness of
propane - Valve freeze method
WARNING - The use of this International Standard may involve hazardous materials, operations and
equipment. This standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems associated with its use. It
is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and
determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
1 Scope
This International Standard describes a procedure for the assessment of whether liquefied petroleum gas (LPG)
hydrocarbons consisting predominantly of propane and/or propene are sufficiently dry to avoid malfunctions in
pressure-reducing systems installed in domestic, industrial and automotive LPG applications.
The test is normally used as a functional pass/fail test in which the behaviour of the product is assessed in a
specially designed and calibrated regulator valve.
NOTES
1 If excessive dissolved water is contained in the LPG under test, it will cause freezing and blockage of a test regulator valve,
which is an indication that the product could cause malfunctions in commercial pressure-reducing systems.
2 If the product under test contains an antifreeze agent, the time taken for the test valve to freeze is not necessarily a function
of dryness, but may provide an indication of the tendency of the product to cause freezing in pressure-reducing regulators
under service conditions.
2 Normative reference
The following standard contains provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of this
International Standard. At the time of publication, the edition indicated was valid. All standards are subject to
revision, and parties to agreements based on this International Standard are encouraged to investigate the
possibility of applying the most recent edition of the standard indicated below. Members of IEC and IS0 maintain
