But to finish it off, when doing convesions for pneumatics 14.7 is the normal conversion used throughout the industry and in the textbooks!

holy ---- you just won the wrongest of the wrong answers award. Thats so wrong I don't even know where to start but I'll try.


1 bar = 14.7 psi. That is a conversion factor. no matter if your on sea level or the moon, its a universal conversion factor. With your reasoning 1 mile at sea level is different than 1 mile at high altitudes. I'm not even going to get into the difference between gauge pressure and absolute pressure but consider yourself
