[PW] converting bars to weight

[Eve-Isabelle]

I find this page useful for all sorts of conversions:
http://www.thelenchannel.com/1conv.php

Use your browser's search function for "bars" and you'll find a list of conversions, including to lbs/sq. ft and lbs/sq. in. Considering that one pound = 16oz, you should then be able to calculate ounces per square inch.

Hope that helps,
EIC

>I am trying to help a patron who is installing refrigerant into a cooler at a winery. The product is from Italy and gives the pressure in bars.  I found a conversion chart for converting bars into all kinds of things, but am still at sea.  I thought maybe someone more familiar with this measurement can help.  I can find out what the bars given on the product is, if there is someone who can than covert that information to the amount of pressure in ounces. Thanks so much. Obviously, this is time sensitive so any speed would be appreciated.
