Convert from % Vacuum to Unit of Pressure
The % of vacuum is a relative value where pressure at normal or standard atmosphere is the base value.
pv% = 100% - (pv / patm) 100% (1)
where
pv% = vacuum (%)
pv = absolute pressure (psia, kPa, bar ..)
patm = absolute presure at normal or standard conditions (psia, kPa, bar ..)
Example - Pressure in kPa and % Vacuum
The vacuum with absolute pressure 4 kPa and standard pressure 101.4 kPa can be calculated as
pv% = 100% - ((4 kPa) / (101.4 kPa)) 100%
= 96.1 %
Example - Pressure in kPa and % Vacuum
The vacuum with absolute pressure 0.1 bar and standard pressure 1 bar can be calculated as
pv% = 100% - ((0.1 bar) / (1 bar)) 100%
= 90 %
Vacuum Ranges
| Pressure (Pa) | |
|---|---|
| Low vacuum | 1x105 to 3x103 |
| Medium vacuum | 3x103 to 1x10-1 |
| High vacuum | 1x10-1 to 1x10-7 |
| Ultra high vacuum | 1x10-7 to 1x10-10 |
| Extremely high vacuum | 1x10-10 |
| Perfect vacuum | 0 |
