Vapor Pressure Analysis of Petroleum Products

The RVP Pro™ vapor pressure analyzer offers precision, durability, and portability with a 0-1000 kPa range, ideal for labs and field use.

RVP PRO

The RVP Pro™ is a user-friendly, durable vapor pressure analyzer designed for high-volume labs and field operations. With a 0-1000 kPa range, ISO 17025-accredited calibration, and industrial-grade components, it delivers reliable, precise measurements from oil fields to fuel pumps. Features include one-button operation, robust measuring cell and valving technology, transport lock, self-diagnostics, and Linux OS for easy updates. Its peripheral interface supports LIMS, printers, USB devices, and barcode scanners—no external PC needed. Proudly designed, built, and serviced in the USA.

Key Features

Engineered for years of reliable vapor pressure measurements, featuring highly robust components. An automatic oiling system continuously keeps the piston lubricated with fresh oil. The highly chemical-resistant finish protects the enclosure from aggressive samples.

Most comfortable and user-friendly vapor pressure analysis. Simple user profile creation allows for nonskilled personnel to perform measurements by pushing a single button on the intuitive, full-color touchscreen.

Industry proven Nickel-plated measuring cell and stainless-steel valving technology allow RVP Pro to handle aggressive samples in addition to being highly resistant to wax/paraffin fouling.

Advanced thermal management technology isolates the heat sink and measuring cell from mounting plate, preventing heat soaking of the internals during heavy use which impacts precision.
