With the simplification of scuba certifications to make the sport more accessible to the masses, I wonder how long it's going to take for SPG's that read like the gas gauges in cars (i.e. If you don't know that they're doing that, it could lead to trouble.ĮDIT: that just got me thinking. As soon as you start comparing gauges and talking about bar and psi, without knowing it you might have a mathematically gifted person that can do the conversions in their head and, in trying to make things easier on you, signals to you in PSI what they read in bar. It is conveniently designed to be used with any of our standard BRP Holders and creates a back pressure of 750 psi (34 bar). Alternatively, to find out the atmospheric pressure value for the most commonly converted psi values, you may check the psi to atm conversion table.
Remember, you don't need to know the exact conversions all the time, just how close you are to the next "milestone" that fits your dive plan.Īlso, make sure to agree before hand who's signaling what. atm to psi pressure converter To convert pound force per square inch (psi) to standard atmospheric pressure (atm), you may use the psi to atm converter above. You can also convert psi to pascal, exapascal, petapascal, terapascal, gigapascal, megapascal, kilopascal, hectopascal, dekapascal, decipascal, centipascal, millipascal, micropascal, nanopascal, picopascal, femtopascal, attopascal, newton/square meter, newton/square centimeter, newton/square millimeter, kilonewton/square meter, millibar. 1 psi psi 6894.7572931783 pascal Pa psi to pascal, pascal to psi. 00 pascal Pa bar to pascal, pascal to bar. pascal Pa 1 kilopascal kPa 1000 pascal Pa kilopascal to pascal, pascal to kilopascal. In other words, five fingers means 50 bar, 10 fingers (or five twice) means 100 bar etc.Īs a rule of thumb I generally use the following bar to PSI approximations:ģ0 bar ~= 500 psi (should be at the surface)Įverything in between is just that: in between. 750 psi 51.710586191205 bar / Convert psi to bar. Complete list of pressure units for conversion. Sorry old dog here, and as much as I love the metric system, PSI just "makes more sense" to me for diving, probably because of all the years using it.Īnyway, the BAR folk signal tank pressure using one finger for every 10 bar just like the psi folk do for every 100 psi.
I've been diving here in Chile (where everything's metric) for several years now, but all my training was in the US as are my gear purchases. 0 to 750 psi (10) 0 to 1 bar (9) 0 to 10 psi (9) 0 to 25 psi (9).
