Why use millimeter water (4°C) for pressure measurements?

Millimeter water (4°C) measures very small pressures, making it ideal for applications like HVAC static pressure and low pressure sensor calibration.

What does one Standard atmosphere represent?

One Standard atmosphere is defined as exactly 101,325 pascals, roughly the average atmospheric pressure at sea level.

Can this converter be used for high-pressure values?

This tool is intended for converting to a unit suited for low pressures; for high pressures, larger units should be considered.
