Convert Millibar to Torr

Convert Millibar to Torr for vacuum and lab readings using the 0.750062 factor.

How to Convert Millibar to Torr

To convert Millibar to Torr, multiply mbar by 0.750062 because 1 mbar ≈ 0.750062 Torr.

Conversion Formula:

value * 0.750062

Understanding the Conversion

Millibar to Torr connects atmospheric-style units to the vacuum-oriented Torr scale. Multiply mbar by 0.750062. For example, 1,013.25 mbar ≈ 760 Torr (atmosphere). Useful when vacuum specs or gauges are given in Torr but source data is in mbar/hPa.

Conversion Examples

Example: Convert 1,013.25 mbar to Torr

  1. Step 1: 1,013.25 × 0.750062 ≈ 760.
  2. Step 2: Result ≈ 760 Torr.
  3. Step 3: Atmospheric reference.

1,013.25 mbar ≈ 760 Torr

Sea-level pressure in Torr.

Example: Convert 500 mbar to Torr

  1. Step 1: 500 × 0.750062 ≈ 375.03.
  2. Step 2: Result ≈ 375 Torr.
  3. Step 3: Midrange example.

500 mbar ≈ 375 Torr

Sub-atmospheric level.

Example: Convert 50 mbar to Torr

  1. Step 1: 50 × 0.750062 ≈ 37.5.
  2. Step 2: Result ≈ 37.5 Torr.
  3. Step 3: Shows low pressure.

50 mbar ≈ 37.5 Torr

Low absolute pressure scenario.

Conversion Formula

1 mbar is 100 Pa; 1 Torr is about 133.322 Pa. Multiplying mbar by 100/133.322 gives the 0.750062 factor.

Quick Conversion Tip

mbar × 0.75 ≈ Torr for quick checks; 0.750062 for precision.

Unit Definitions

Millibar (mbar)

Atmospheric unit.

1 mbar ≈ 0.750062 Torr = 0.1 kPa = 100 Pa.

Torr (Torr)

Vacuum unit (1/760 atm).

Torr to mbar divide by 0.750062; Torr to kPa divide by 7.50062; Torr to Pa multiply by 133.322.

Common Use Cases

  • Vacuum and lab reporting in Torr
  • Semiconductor/process specs in Torr
  • Education linking mbar/hPa to Torr
  • Calibration between mbar sensors and Torr gauges

Frequently Asked Questions

Why convert to Torr?

Vacuum specs and gauges often use Torr; converting keeps communication clear.

Is the factor constant?

Yes, based on the defined relation between atmosphere, Pa, and Torr.

How to revert?

Divide Torr by 0.750062 to return to mbar.
