How Do You Convert From Mpa & GPA To PSI?
Measuring pressure is necessary and important skill used from checking tires to calibrating pumps. As many devices are designed using the metric system, it is sometimes useful to convert Pascals (Pa), Mega pascals (MPa), and Giga pascals (GPa), all metric units, to Pounds per Square Inch (PSI), an English unit. The following will explain how to convert the pressure units. You can also use an online site for doing this conversion (see Resources). 1 Pa = 0.000145038 PSI To Convert 1 Pa to PSI, simply multiply by 0.000145038 Example: 5 Pa = .00072519 PSI (5 x .000145038 = .00072519) 1 MPa = 145.037738 PSI To convert 1 MPa to PSI, simply multiply by 145.037738.
