What is the conversion rate between pascal and microbar?

One pascal equals ten microbar (1 Pa = 10 µbar).

When should I use microbar instead of pascal?

Microbar is suitable for very low pressures common in vacuum technology and sensitive atmospheric measurements.

Is this conversion useful for everyday pressure measurements?

No, microbar units are typically used in scientific research and specialized applications rather than daily pressure readings.

What Is This Tool?

This converter transforms pressure values expressed in pascal (Pa), the standard SI unit of pressure, into microbar (µbar), a unit suited for very low pressure readings often used in scientific and technical fields.

How to Use This Tool?

Enter the numeric pressure value in pascal (Pa).
Select pascal as the starting unit and microbar as the target unit.
Initiate the conversion to get the equivalent pressure in microbar (µbar).

Key Features

Converts pressure from pascal (Pa) to microbar (µbar) with an established conversion factor.
Useful for applications requiring precise low-pressure units.
Browser-based and easy to use without requiring installation.
Supports scientific and engineering use cases involving vacuum and atmospheric pressure.

Examples

5 Pa equals 50 µbar.
0.2 Pa equals 2 µbar.

Common Use Cases

Translating standard pressure values into very small units for vacuum system monitoring.
Measuring weak acoustic or infrasound pressure fluctuations.
Specifying residual gas pressures in space-simulation chambers and aerospace testing.
Supporting scientific research in atmospheric science and electron microscopy preparation.

Tips & Best Practices

Use this conversion when dealing with low-pressure ranges to get meaningful results.
Ensure measurement instruments have sufficient precision for microbar-level pressures.
Choose appropriate units based on the pressure magnitude; use pascal or kilopascal for higher pressures.

Limitations

Conversion to microbar is only relevant for very low pressure values.
For higher pressures, pascal or larger units like kilopascal are more practical.
Instrument precision must match microbar sensitivity to ensure accurate conversions.
