About Torr (Torr)
Named after the Italian physicist Evangelista Torricelli, who invented the mercury barometer in 1644, the torr is approximately equal to one millimeter of mercury. Vacuum technology, thin-film deposition, and freeze-drying processes specify pressures in torr, with ultra-high vacuum defined as below 10^-9 torr.
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.
