What is an attopascal?

An attopascal (aPa) is an SI derived unit of pressure equal to 10^-18 pascals, used to measure extremely small pressure values.

A bar is a pressure unit equal to 100,000 pascals, commonly used in meteorology, engineering, and industry.

Why convert attopascal to bar?

Converting from attopascal to bar helps relate very low pressure measurements in scientific contexts to more familiar and widely used pressure units.

Tips & Best Practices

Use this conversion when working with very low-pressure measurements in scientific research or specialized industrial applications.
Be mindful of the extremely small numerical values resulting when converting from attopascal to bar.
Cross-check converted values in context to ensure they remain meaningful for your specific use case.
Understand that attopascal pressures are mostly theoretical or relevant in niche areas rather than everyday pressure readings.

Limitations

The huge difference in scale between attopascal and bar produces extremely small output values, which may not be practical for many typical applications.
Measurements in attopascal range often reflect theoretical or highly specialized conditions that are not common in daily pressure monitoring.
This converter does not address accuracy or sensitivity of measurement instruments at extremely low pressures.
