This International Standard describes a procedure for the assessment of whether liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) hydrocarbons consisting predominantly
of propane and/or propene are sufficiently dry to avoid malfunctions in pressure-reducing systems installed in domestic, industrial and automotive
LPG applications. The test is normally used as a functional pass/ fail test in which the behaviour of the product is assessed in a specially designed and calibrated regulator valve.
