• Calculate vacuum pressure from barometric and suction pressure
• Convert pressure to different units

User Guide

This tool will calculate the suction pressure by subtracting the vacuum pressure reading from the barometric pressure reading you entered and convert any combination of pressure units for each pressure value. For more information please refer to our vacuum & suction pressure guide.

P_baro – Barometric Pressure

Enter the barometric pressure and select the associated pressure units directly underneath.  The barometric pressure should be measured at the same location and time as the absolute referenced vacuum pressure was measured. For more information please refer to our barometric pressure guide.

P_vac – Vacuum

Enter the vacuum as an absolute referenced pressure reading and select the associated pressure units directly underneath. For more information please refer to our vacuum guide.

P_suction – Suction Pressure

The suction pressure is calculated by subtracting the vacuum from the barometric pressure, and will appear once the required pressure units are selected directly underneath. The suction pressure will display as a positive value. For more information please refer to our suction pressure guide.
