API MPMS 19.3B, 1st Edition, February 2023 - Manual of Petroleum Measurement Standards Chapter 19.3—Evaporative Loss Measurement Part B—Air Concentration Test Method—Rim-Seal Loss Factors for Floating-Roof Tanks

This test method may be used to establish evaporative rimseal loss factors for rim seals used on external and internal floating-roof tanks. The test method involves passing a controlled flow rate of air through a test chamber that contains a test liquid and a test rim seal, and measuring the concentration of the test liquid vapor in the air streams entering and leaving the test chamber. This standard specifies the test apparatus, the instruments, the test procedure, and the calculation procedures to be used. The variables that are to be measured are defined, and quality provisions are stipulated. The format for reporting the values of both the test results and their associated uncertainty are also specified.

This 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.
