(b) In some cases, gases reading in pounds per square inch are used for determining pressures while
standard characteristics are given in inches of mercury or inches of water. It is extremely important that the
scale of such a gage be of low range and finely divided if accuracy is desired. This is especially true of a gage
reading in psi, the reading of which is to be converted to inches of water. The following conversion factors may
be helpful.
Inches of water = psi X 27.7"
Inches of mercury = psi X 2.04"
