Microsieverts per hour to nanosieverts per hour
Type a value in µSv/h to get it in nSv/h instantly.
100nSv/h
That's about the same as natural background. A whole year in it would be about 0.8766 mSv, against a world average of 2.4.
What it means
How much radiation is that?
Yearly figures assume constant exposure for all 8,766 hours of a year, which is how limits are written but rarely how life works.
The math
How to convert µSv/h to nSv/h
To convert microsieverts per hour to nanosieverts per hour, multiply by 1,000.
Example: 0.1 µSv/h × 1,000 = 100 nSv/h.
In the other direction, 1 nSv/h = 0.001 µSv/h.
