PSI to Water Column Height

Formula

P = ρ × g × h | 1 foot of water ≈ 0.433 PSI | 1 meter of water ≈ 9.807 kPa

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I convert feet of water to PSI?
Multiply the height in feet by 0.433. For example, 100 feet of water head = 100 × 0.433 = 43.3 PSI. This is based on the density of water at standard conditions.
What is hydrostatic pressure?
Hydrostatic pressure is the pressure exerted by a fluid at rest due to gravity. The formula is P = rho × g × h, where rho is the fluid density (1000 kg/m3 for water), g is gravitational acceleration (9.80665 m/s2), and h is the height of the fluid column.
