This method is for the determination of the density, relative density (specific gravity), or API gravity of petroleum and petroleum products having a Redi vapor pressure of 101.325 kPa (14.696 psi) or less using a glass hdyrometer. Values are measured at the reference temperature or other temperature and converted to the reference temperature by means of the Petroleum Measurement Tables.
