About These Units

Bar (bar)

A bar equals 100,000 Pascals or approximately 14.5 PSI. Bar is slightly less than standard atmospheric pressure (1.01325 bar). Bars measure tire pressure, compressed gas cylinders, scuba tank pressure (200-300 bar), and industrial processes.

Centimeter of Water (cmH₂O)

Centimeters of water (cmH₂O) measure low pressures in medical ventilators, CPAP machines (4-20 cmH₂O), HVAC systems, and manometers. One cmH₂O equals 98.07 Pascals. Based on the pressure exerted by a water column.
