Le décret du 4 décembre 1975 concernant les unités du système international, définit comme unité de pression le pascal (Pa) qui est la pression uniforme agissant sur une surface plane de 1 m² et exerçant, perpendiculairement à cette surface, une force de 1 newton (N). Pour les usages industriels, le pascal (ou N/m²) est une unité beaucoup trop petite. On peut utiliser le kPa et le MPa, mais l'unité pratique autorisée est le bar. 2, record 5, French, - pression%20atmosph%C3%A9rique%20exc%C3%A9dentaire
