40、n requires the utmost precaution and the mostmeticulous care in the drawing and handling of samples.Sampling of live crude oil shall be performed in accordancewith Practice D3700. Sampling in accordance with PracticeD4057 shall only be used for dead crude oil and if PracticeD3700 is impractical.NOTE

Forprolonged storage, store the samples in an appropriate room orrefrigerator.8.1.4 Perform the vapor pressure determination on the firsttest specimen withdrawn

45、 from the cylinder after the rinsingstep in 9.3. Do not use the remaining sample in the floatingpiston cylinder for more than three repeat vapor pressuredeterminations.8.1.5 In the case of quality control checks with purecompounds (see 11.1), smaller sample containers withoutapplied pressure can be

46、used.8.2 Sampling Procedures:8.2.1 If the sample is contained in a pressurized source likea pipeline, use a floating piston cylinder and obtain the sampledirectly from the source under pressure. Rinse the cylinder byopening the rinsing valve until the crude oil emerges at thesecond inlet. Close the

47、rinsing valve and let the piston moveslowly until at least 200 mL of sample has entered the cylinder.Close the inlet valve and apply the back pressure immediately.Check the filling of the cylinder to be at least 200 mL.NOTE 6The current precision statements were derived from the 2005ILS using sample

49、 % with sample. For best testing precision(reproducibility), it is recommended that a 1 L sized containerbe used.NOTE 7The current precision statements were derived from the 2005ILS using samples in 1 L amber glass containers (see 14.3).
