Formula

How to convert Atmospheres to PSI

To convert atmospheres to psi, multiply by 14.69595. One atmosphere equals 14.69595 psi, and one psi equals 0.068046 atm.

  1. Take the value in atmospheres — for example 7.5 atm.
  2. Multiply by 14.69595 (the number of psi in one atmosphere).
  3. 7.5 × 14.69595 = 110.2196 psi.

Quick mental estimate: Multiply the number of atmospheres by 14.7 (accurate to better than 0.05%).

About converting Atmospheres to PSI

Atmospheres (atm) and PSI (psi) are both units of pressure. The exact factor is 1 atm = 14.69595 psi, so multiply by 14.69595 to go from atmospheres to psi (or divide to go back).

The conversion runs entirely in your browser. Need the reverse? Use the PSI to Atmospheres converter, or the full unit converter for every unit at once.

The units

Atmospheres (atm)

The standard atmosphere: exactly 101,325 Pa, average sea-level air pressure.

Used for: Chemistry, diving and physics.

PSI (psi)

Pounds-force per square inch, about 6,894.757 Pa.

Used for: US tyre pressure, air compressors and hydraulics.

The bar (100,000 Pa) and the standard atmosphere (101,325 Pa) are exact; psi is derived from the pound-force and the inch, so its factor is a rounded value of an exact fraction.

Frequently asked questions

5 answers
How many psi are in one atmosphere?
One atmosphere equals 14.69595 psi.
How do I convert atmospheres to psi?
Multiply the number of atmospheres by 14.69595. For example, 10 atmospheres = 146.9595 psi.
What is 5 atmospheres in psi?
5 atmospheres is 73.47974 psi.
