How to Convert Pascals to Torr
Converting pascals (Pa) to torr is a common conversion in vacuum technology and medical applications. One pascal is equal to approximately 0.00750062 torr.
Formula
Torr = Pascals × 0.00750062
or
Torr = Pa × 0.00750062
Step-by-step process
- Take the measurement in pascals
- Multiply that number by 0.00750062
- The result is the equivalent amount in torr
Examples
- 1 Pa = 0.00750062 Torr
- 100 Pa = 0.750062 Torr
- 133.322 Pa = 1 Torr
When to Convert Pascals to Torr
This conversion is commonly used in vacuum systems, blood pressure measurements, and other scientific and medical contexts where torr is the preferred unit.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many torr are in a pascal?
There are approximately 0.00750062 torr in one pascal.
Why is the conversion factor 0.00750062?
One torr is defined as 1/760 of a standard atmosphere, and one standard atmosphere is 101,325 pascals. Therefore, one torr is 101,325 / 760 = 133.322 pascals, and one pascal is 1 / 133.322 torr.
