What is atmosphere technical (at)?

It is a historic non-SI pressure unit defined as one kilogram-force per square centimetre, equal to 98,066.5 pascals.

Where is hectopascal (hPa) commonly used?

Hectopascal is widely used in meteorology to express air pressure on weather maps and forecasts, as well as in aviation and atmospheric research.

Why convert atmosphere technical to hectopascal?

To translate legacy industrial pressure data into modern SI units, facilitating comparison and integration with current scientific and engineering standards.

Browser-based and easy to use with straightforward input and results

Examples

2 Atmosphere technical [at] = 1961.33 Hectopascal [hPa]
0.5 Atmosphere technical [at] = 490.33 Hectopascal [hPa]

Common Use Cases

Interpreting older industrial pressure specifications such as those in boilers or pneumatic systems
Converting legacy pressure ratings given in kilogram-force per square centimetre to SI units
Translating historic pressure data into units widely used in weather forecasting and atmospheric studies
Calibrating pressure sensors and analyzing old technical documents in engineering maintenance

Tips & Best Practices

Ensure the input value corresponds to the technical atmosphere unit accurately
Use this tool mainly for legacy data since the technical atmosphere unit is less common today
Cross-check conversions when high scientific accuracy is required due to differences from the standard atmosphere
Consider environmental conditions if precise pressure equivalence is critical

Limitations

The atmosphere technical is a non-SI unit and may lead to less precise results when converting old data
Discrepancies exist between technical and standard atmospheres, affecting accuracy in precise applications
Conversion is generally based on standard environmental conditions and may vary with temperature or gravity differences
