Convert millimeter water (4°C) to centimeter water (4°C)
Please provide values below to convert millimeter water (4°C) [mmH2O] to centimeter water (4°C) [cmH2O], or Convert centimeter water (4°C) to millimeter water (4°C).
1 mmH2O = 0.1 cmH2O. To convert millimeter water (4°C) to centimeter water (4°C), multiply the value by 0.1; to go the other way, divide by it (1 cmH2O = 10 mmH2O). Both units measure pressure and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 mmH2O = 0.1 cmH2O
- 1 cmH2O = 10 mmH2O
- 10 mmH2O = 1 cmH2O
- 100 mmH2O = 10 cmH2O
How to Convert Millimeter Water (4°c) to Centimeter Water (4°c)
1 mmH2O = 0.1 cmH2O
Example: convert 15 mmH2O to cmH2O:
15 mmH2O = 15 × 0.1 cmH2O = 1.5 cmH2O

Millimeter Water (4°c)
Millimeter water (4°C) is a unit of pressure measuring the height of a water column at 4 degrees Celsius that exerts a specific pressure.
History/Origin
The unit originated from the use of water columns to measure pressure, particularly in hydrology and medical applications, with standardization based on the density of water at 4°C.
Current Use
It is primarily used in medical and scientific contexts to measure low pressures, such as intracranial pressure, respiratory pressures, and in calibration of pressure sensors.
Centimeter Water (4°c)
Centimeter water (4°C), symbol cmH2O, is a unit of pressure representing the pressure exerted by a one-centimeter column of water at 4 degrees Celsius.
History/Origin
The centimeter water was developed as a practical unit of pressure measurement in medical and engineering contexts, especially for low-pressure measurements such as respiratory and fluid pressure, originating from the use of water columns in manometers.
Current Use
It is primarily used in medical settings to measure intracranial pressure, respiratory pressures, and other low-pressure applications where precise measurement of small pressure differences is required.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 millimeter water (4°C) in centimeter water (4°C)?
1 millimeter water (4°C) (mmH2O) = 0.1 centimeter water (4°C) (cmH2O).
How do you convert millimeter water (4°C) to centimeter water (4°C)?
Multiply the millimeter water (4°C) value by 0.1. For example, 25 mmH2O × 0.1 = 2.5 cmH2O.
