Designation: D1298 12bManual of Petroleum Measurement Standards (MPMS), Chapter Test Method forDensity, Relative density , or api Gravity of Crude Petroleumand Liquid Petroleum Products by Hydrometer Method1 This Standard is issued under the fixed designation D1298; the number immediately following the designation indicates the year oforiginal adoption or, in the case of revision, the year of last revision. A number in parentheses indicates the year of last reapproval. Asuperscript epsilon ( ) indicates an editorial change since the last revision or Scope* This test Method covers the laboratory determinationusing a glass hydrometer in conjunction with a series ofcalculations, of the density , Relative density , or api gravity ofcrude petroleum, petroleum products, or mixtures of petroleumand nonpetroleum products normally handled as liquids, andhaving a Reid vapor pressure of kPa ( psi) orless.
1.3 Readings determined as density, relative density, orAPI gravity can be converted to equivalent values in the other units or alternate reference temperatures by means of Interconver-sion Procedures (API MPMS Chapter 11.5), or Adjunct to D1250 Guide for Petroleum Measurement Tables (API MPMS Chapter 11.1), or both, or tables, as applicable.
