Illustration of a CO2 cartridge
432 psi (2,980 kPa) is comparable to the pressure inside a CO₂ cartridge or small gas cylinder.

Did you know? CO2 cartridge is 3,000 kPa.

Small CO2 cartridges (for soda makers, paintball) operate at about 3,000 kPa (435 psi) at room temperature.

How to Convert KPa to Bar

1 kPa = 0.01 bar exact

Bar = KPa × 0.01

Example: 2980 kPa × 0.01 = 29.8 bar

Reverse Conversion

To convert bar back to kPa:

  • Remember, 1 bar equals 100 kPa.
  • To convert 29.8 bar to kPa, multiply 29.8 x 100, resulting in 2980 kPa.

exact This conversion factor is exact by international definition.

2980 kPa is also equal to:

  • 2980000 pascal
  • 432.21 psi
About these units

KPa: SI-derived pressure unit equal to 1,000 pascals (10³ Pa).

Bar: Metric pressure unit equal to exactly 100,000 pascals.
