3 DefinItions
For the purpose of this International Standard the following definitions apply.
3.1 liquefied petroleum gas (LPG): Hydrocarbon gas that can be stored and/or handled in the liquid phase under moderate conditions of pressure and at ambient temperature. It consists essentially of C3 and C4 alkanes or alkenes, or a mixture of these, contains generally less than 5 % by liquid volume of material of higher carbon number, and has a gauge vapour pressure not exceeding approximately 1 600 kPa at 40°C.
3.2 density factor: Density, expressed in kilograms per cubic metre, of a component in the liquid phase under its own vapour pressure at a temperature of 15°C.
3.3 vapour pressure: Vapour pressure, expressed in kilopascals on an absolute basis, i.e. the gauge pressure plus local ambient pressure.
3,4 vapour pressure factor: Absolute vapour pressure, expressed in kilopascals, of a component of the liquid at temperature of 37,8 °C, 40°C, 50°C or 70°C.
