FAQ

How many PSI are in one atmosphere?

One atmosphere equals approximately 14.696 PSI. This is sea-level atmospheric pressure expressed in pounds per square inch.

How do I convert atmospheres to PSI?

Multiply the atmosphere value by 14.696. For example, 2.5 atm × 14.696 = 36.74 psi.

What is gauge pressure vs absolute pressure?

Gauge pressure (psig) reads zero at atmospheric pressure. Absolute pressure (psia) includes atmospheric pressure. So 0 psig = 1 atm = 14.696 psia.

What everyday pressures are measured in PSI?

Car tires: 30-35 psi. Bicycle tires: 40-130 psi. Water pressure in homes: 40-80 psi. Scuba tanks: 3,000 psi.
