PSI to Bar Unit Conversion Calculator
This calculator allows you to convert pressure values from pounds per square inch (psi) to Bar.
Definition: Pound-force per Square Inch (psi)
A pound-force per square inch (symbol: psi) is a unit of pressure used in both the imperial and US customary systems. It represents the pressure resulting from a force of one pound-force applied over an area of one square inch. One psi is equivalent to approximately 6,895 pascals (N/m²).
Definition: Bar
The metric unit of pressure known as a bar (symbol: bar) is equivalent to precisely 100,000 pascals (Pa). This unit is commonly used to express atmospheric pressure, with one bar being equal to 0.987 atmospheres (101,325 Pa), which is often used as a reference for standard pressure.
Formula for Psi to Bar Conversion :
Pressure in bar = Pressure in psi × 0.0689476
How to Convert Psi to Bar: Example Calculation
- Suppose you have a pressure of 150 psi.
- To convert it to bar: 150 × 0.0689476 =10.34214 bar
So, 150 psi is equal to 10.34214 bar.
