Why is the temperature important in inch water measurements?

Because the density of water varies with temperature, specifying 60°F ensures the inch water pressure is accurately defined.

What is the significance of millimeter mercury measured at 0°C?

Millimeter mercury at 0°C refers to the pressure exerted by a 1 mm column of mercury when mercury is at standard temperature, affecting its density and thus the pressure value.

Can I use this conversion for high-pressure readings?

No, both inch water and millimeter mercury units are designed for relatively low-pressure measurements.

What Is This Tool?

This unit converter facilitates the conversion of pressure measurements from inch water (60°F) to millimeter mercury (0°C). It is designed to help users translate small pressure differences commonly found in HVAC, gas service, medical, laboratory, and engineering fields.

How to Use This Tool?

Enter the pressure value in inch water (60°F)
Select the unit you are converting from (inch water at 60°F)
Choose the unit to convert to (millimeter mercury at 0°C)
Click convert to obtain the converted pressure value

Key Features

Converts pressure values between inch water (60°F) and millimeter mercury (0°C)
Temperature-specified conversion ensuring correct interpretation of water density effects
Useful for HVAC diagnostics, gas pressure regulation, medical blood pressure readings, and laboratory measurements
Simple and straightforward to use with clear conversion rates

Examples

Convert 5 inch water (60°F): 5 × 1.8664811509 = 9.3324057545 millimeter mercury (0°C)
Convert 10 inch water (60°F): 10 × 1.8664811509 = 18.664811509 millimeter mercury (0°C)

Common Use Cases

Measuring pressure drops in HVAC duct and filter systems
Setting residential gas service and regulator pressures
Reading differential pressure sensors in ventilation and cleanroom environments
Recording clinical blood pressure measurements using mmHg
Performing laboratory manometry and vapor pressure reporting
Evaluating vacuum and barometric pressures for engineering projects

Tips & Best Practices

Always specify the temperature when using inch water units to ensure accuracy
Verify that conditions match standard gravity and temperature assumptions for millimeter mercury
Use this conversion tool only for low-pressure ranges as both units are suited to such scales

Limitations

Inch water pressure depends on water temperature; conversions require the 60°F specification
Millimeter mercury values assume mercury at 0°C under standard gravity conditions
Not suitable for high-pressure measurements as both units represent relatively low pressures

Key Terminology

Inch water (60°F) [inAq]: A pressure unit representing the hydrostatic pressure from a 1-inch water column at 60°F, used for small pressure differences influenced by water temperature.
Millimeter mercury (0°C): A pressure unit equal to the pressure from a 1 mm mercury column at 0°C under standard gravity, commonly abbreviated as mmHg.
Hydrostatic pressure: The pressure exerted by a fluid due to its weight, commonly used to measure pressure in liquids.
