  • 1 Torr = 1 mm Hg

Note! - pressure is "force per unit area" and commonly used pressure units like kg/cm2 and similar are in principle not correct since kg is a mass unit. Mass must be multiplied with gravity g to be a force (weight).

Example - Convert from 10 psi to Pa

From the table above - to convert from psi, multiply psi with6894.76:

10 (psi) =6894.76 10 (Pa) = 68947.6Pa = 68.95 kPa
