A pascal (Pa) is the SI derived unit of pressure defined as one newton per square meter, used widely in engineering, physics, and meteorology.

What is a torr used for?

The torr is primarily used to measure low pressures and vacuum levels, especially in laboratories and industrial vacuum systems.

Why convert from pascal to torr?

Users convert to torr for applications involving low-pressure or vacuum conditions where the torr is a standard and convenient unit.

Tips & Best Practices

Always ensure you input the correct pressure unit before conversion
Use this conversion for low pressure and vacuum measurements where torr units are ideal
Be aware of minor rounding differences when converting between pascals and torrs
For very high pressures, consider using pascals or other SI units for practicality

Limitations

Minor rounding differences exist due to the torr being based on the standard atmosphere
The torr is most appropriate for low pressures and vacuum conditions
Pascals or other SI units may be more practical for representing very high pressures
