The pressure differential varies between aircraft types, typical values are between 540 hPa (7.8 psi) and 650 hPa (9.4 psi). [35] At 39,000 ft (11,887 m), the cabin pressure would be automatically maintained at about 6,900 ft (2,100 m), (450 ft (140 m) lower than Mexico City), which is about 790 hPa (11.5 psi) of atmosphere pressure.

In 1996, the FAA adopted Amendment 25–87, which imposed additional high-altitude cabin-pressure specifications, for new designs of aircraft types. [25] For aircraft certified to operate above 25,000 feet (FL 250; 7,600 m), it "must be designed so that occupants will not be exposed to cabin pressure altitudes in excess of 15,000 feet (4,600 m ...
That means that the pressure is 10.9 pounds per square inch (75 kPa), which is the ambient pressure at 8,000 feet (2,400 m). Note that a lower cabin altitude is a higher pressure. The cabin pressure is controlled by a cabin pressure schedule, which associates each aircraft altitude with a cabin altitude.
The Citation X business jet is one such aircraft with a uni-directional PTU, protected by check-valves and a back-pressure stall line, designed to allow the right hand hydraulic system to assist the left hand hydraulic system and the left hand auxiliary motorpump to retract the landing gear during a port engine failure only. On yet other ...
A rate controller enables the crew to select the rate pressurization of the cabin within preset limits. The normal pressure relief valve will open at 8.9 psi differential pressure and the safety outflow valve will open at 9.2 psi differential pressure which is the maximum allowable differential pressure.
180 hp (134 kW) at 2700 rpm, Minimum fuel grade 100 or 100LL avgas, compression ratio 9.00:1. Similar to the A1A except that it has a crankcase with an integral accessory section, front-mounted fuel pump, external mounted oil pump, automatic valve tappets and rocker arms and also a dual magneto.

The auto pressure controllers are programmed to keep the cabin altitude as low as possible, consistent with not exceeding the max allowed pressure differential for outside-to-inside, of approximately 8.6 PSI (various aircraft can vary a little, from that number, up or down).
