About Pounds per Square Inch (psi)
Pounds per square inch is the most common pressure unit in the United States, used for tire pressure (typically 30-35 psi for passenger cars), air compressor ratings, and water pressure in plumbing. Fire hydrants deliver water at 40-80 psi, and scuba tank pressures reach 3,000 psi.
About Atmosphere (atm)
Standard atmosphere (atm) equals exactly 101,325 pascals and represents the average air pressure at sea level. Scuba divers experience one additional atmosphere for every 10 meters of seawater depth, and pressurized aircraft cabins maintain roughly 0.75 atm at cruising altitude.
