Formula

The formula to calculate the Static Head (SH) is:

\[ SH = PSI \times 2.31 \]

What is Static Head?

Static head is a measure of the total vertical distance a pump can raise water, typically expressed in units of feet. The static head is dependent on the amount of pressure that the pump can supply/generate in the fluid line.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following value:

Using the formula to calculate the Static Head (SH):

\[ SH = PSI \times 2.31 = 50 \times 2.31 = 115.5 \text{ feet} \]

The Static Head (SH) is 115.5 feet.
