Why is inch water pressure specified at 60°F?

The inch water unit depends on water density, which changes with temperature; 60°F standardization ensures consistent measurements.

What applications use microbar units?

Microbar is used for very low pressures such as those in vacuum systems, weak acoustic pressure fluctuations, and space simulation chambers.

Can I use this converter for high-pressure measurements?

No, microbar units are for very low pressures, so this converter is not suitable for high-pressure applications.
