Did you know? Aircraft cabin at cruise is 75 kPa.

Airplane cabins are pressurized to ~75 kPa (10.9 psi), equivalent to about 2,400 m (8,000 ft) altitude.

How to Convert KPa to Psi

1 kPa = 0.145038 psi

Psi = KPa × 0.145038

Example: 72 kPa × 0.145038 = 10.443 psi

Reverse Conversion

To convert psi back to kPa:

  • Remember, 1 psi equals 6.89476 kPa.
  • To convert 10.443 psi to kPa, multiply 10.443 x 6.89476, resulting in 72 kPa.

72 kPa is also equal to:

  • 72000 pascal
  • 0.72 bar
About these units

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

Psi: Imperial/US customary pressure unit equal to one pound-force per square inch.

Frequently Asked Questions
