Pascals and PSI are both units of pressure. We are going to show you how you can convert Pa to PSI. For easier conversion, you will find both Pa to PSI calculator (insert Pa, get PSI) as well as a chart with 1 Pa to 10,000,000,000 Pa converted to PSI.
Let’s look at what Pa and PSI are and how to convert Pa to PSI:
- Pa or Pascal is a SI unit of pressure defined as 1 Newton of force being exerted onto 1 square meter of surface (1 Pa = 1 N/m2). Pascal is a much smaller unit of pressure than PSI.
- PSI or Pound per Square Inch is also a unit of pressure and it is defined as the force of 1 pound (pound-force) exerted onto 1 square inch of area (1 PSI = 1 lbn/in2). Pound-force is a bit smaller unit than Newtons, but square inches are much smaller than square meters. That’s why pounds per square inch are a much bigger unit than Pascals.
In order to convert Pascals to pounds per square inch, you only need to know this conversion relationship:
1 Pa = 0.000145038 PSI
Basically, 1 Pascal is equal to 0.000145038 PSI. To get Pa from PSI, you just need to multiply pounds per square inches by 0.000145038.
Example: How many Pa is 100,000 PSI? Here is how you can calculate this:
1,000,000 PSI × 0.000145038 = 14.50380 PSI
Converting Pa to PSI is very simple but, due to small numbers, you may have problems using a pocket calculator for all of this.
To help everybody out, we have created a Pa to PSI calculator. You just insert Pa, and the calculator will automatically convert PSI to Pa. Below the calculator, you will also find a Pa to PSI conversion table you should consult:
Pascal To PSI Calculator
Here is how you can use this Pascal to pounds per square inch calculator:
Let’s say you want to convert 6384 Pa to PSI. Just insert ‘6384’ in the calculator and you get the result: 6384 Pa is equal to 0.92592 PSI. That’s very close to 1 PSI since 6895 Pa is equal to 1 PSI.
Let’s look at the complete conversion chart as well:
