Technical Atmosphere is a pressure unit used to express mechanical, atmospheric or process pressure values.
The technical atmosphere is one kilogram-force per square centimeter (98.0665 kPa), a pre-SI engineering unit once common on European pressure gauges.
Measurement system: SI, metric and practical engineering pressure usage. SI equivalent: 1 at = 98,066.5 Pa.
