This calculator enables you to effortlessly convert pressure values from Millimeter of Water Column (mmWC) to Kilogram per square centimeter (Kg/cm²), commonly used in industrial, scientific, and engineering applications.
This mmWC to Kg/cm² calculator helps engineers, technicians, and students quickly convert pressure from Millimeter of Water Column (mmWC) to Kilogram per square centimeter (Kg/cm²). Both units are widely used in hydraulics, pneumatics, water treatment, and industrial process instrumentation.
Definition: Millimeter of Water Column (mmWC)
The Millimeter of Water Column (mmWC) is a unit of pressure derived from the force exerted by a column of water that is 1 millimeter in height. It is often used in low-pressure applications such as ventilation, water distribution systems, and other industrial processes.
Definition: Kilogram per square centimeter (Kg/cm²)
The Kilogram per square centimeter (Kg/cm²) is a metric unit of pressure that indicates the force in kilograms applied per square centimeter. It is widely used in engineering and industrial applications, especially in hydraulic and pneumatic systems.
Formula for mmWC to Kg/cm² Conversion:
Pressure in Kg/cm²=Pressure in mmWC×0.00009807
Where:
- mmWC= Pressure in millimeters of water column
- Kg/cm2= Equivalent pressure in kilograms per square centimeter
How to Convert mmWC to Kg/cm²: Example Calculation
Suppose you have a pressure of 1000 mmWC.
To convert it to Kg/cm²:
1000×0.00009807=0.09807?Kg/cm²
So, 1000 mmWC is equal to 0.09807 Kg/cm².

FAQ on mmWC to Kg/cm² Calculation
1. How to convert mmWC to kg/cm²?
To convert mmWC (millimeters of water column) to kg/cm²:
1 mmWC=0.00009807 kg/cm2
So, multiply the value in mmWC by 0.00009807 to get kg/cm².
2. What is 1 mmWC equal to?
- In Pascal (Pa): 1 mmWC = 9.80665 Pa
- In bar: 1 mmWC = 0.00009807 bar
- In kg/cm²: 1 mmWC = 0.00009807 kg/cm²
- In psi: 1 mmWC = 0.001422 psi
3. How many mmWC is equal to 1 kg/cm²?
1 kg/cm²=10,197.16 mmWC
4. What is 1 hg in kg?
If hg = hectogram (unit of mass):
1 hg=0.1 kg
5. How much is 7500 hg in kg?
7500 hg=7500×0.1=750 kg
6. What is 1 kg of pressure?
“1 kg of pressure” usually refers to 1 kgf/cm² (kilogram-force per square centimeter), which equals:
1 kgf/cm2=98.0665 kPa=0.9807 bar=14.223 psi
7. What is 70 kg in psi?
If 70 kg/cm² (pressure unit):
70 kg/cm2=70×14.223=995.6 psi
8. What is the difference between mmWC and mmHg?
- mmWC (millimeters of water column): Pressure exerted by a column of water of given height.
- mmHg (millimeters of mercury): Pressure exerted by a column of mercury of given height.
Since mercury is 13.6 times denser than water:
1 mmHg=13.6 mmWC
9. How many inches is WC to psi?
- 1 inch WC = 0.0361 psi
- 27.68 inches WC = 1 psi
