What does foot water (60°F) measure?

It measures hydrostatic pressure from a one-foot column of pure water at 60°F under standard gravity.

Why convert foot water (60°F) to micropascal?

To represent low hydrostatic pressures in extremely fine units commonly used for sound pressure and acoustic measurements.

Can this conversion be used for fluids other than water?

No, the foot water (60°F) unit applies specifically to water at 60°F and standard gravity only.
