Conversion Tables for Oxygen Partial Pressures to Percentage Oxygen at Various Depths (in Bars)

reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: ADA066624 | Open PDF

Abstract:

Tables have been calculated for converting oxygen partial pressures from 0.2 to 2.0 bars into percentage oxygen as a function of depth from 0 to 80 bars gauge. To allow the use of these tables with non-metric equipment, equivalent pressures in meters of seawater, feet of seawater, pounds per square inch absolute, atmospheres absolutes, and millimeters of mercury are also given.
