Pressure Converter

Convert between different pressure units: Pa, atm, bar, PSI, and more.

Pressure Converter

Convert between various pressure units used in physics, engineering, meteorology, and diving. Pressure is the force exerted per unit area.

Common Pressure Units

  • Pascal (Pa): SI unit of pressure
  • Atmosphere (atm): Standard atmospheric pressure at sea level
  • Bar: Used in meteorology and industrial applications
  • PSI: Pounds per square inch, common in engineering
  • Torr: Used in vacuum measurements

Pressure Conversion Example

Standard atmospheric pressure is 101325 Pa. Convert to atm:

  • Result: 101325 Pa = 1 atm

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Atmospheric pressure at sea level is 1 atm = 101325 Pa = 14.7 PSI. It decreases with altitude.
  • 1 bar = 100,000 Pa. Bar is a more convenient unit for practical measurements.
  • At 10 meters depth, divers experience about 2 atm of pressure (1 atm from atmosphere + 1 atm from water).
