The PSI rating on a typical radiator cap is usually between 13-16 pounds per square inch (psi). This pressure helps to raise the boiling point of the coolant to prevent overheating. It is important to use the correct psi rating for your vehicle to ensure proper operation of the cooling system.
One standard atmosphere is equivalent to 14.7 psi.
50 psi of air is equivalent to 1145.037 psi of water.

The pressure in the upper radiator hose is created by the water pump circulating coolant through the engine and radiator. This pressure helps to maintain proper flow of coolant to regulate engine temperature and prevent overheating. It also allows the coolant to absorb heat efficiently from the engine.
Look on the radiator cap - there should be a psi rating stamped on there.

14 to 18 psi in all of the cooling system
Probably an old hose that should have been replaced. Replace the hose, clamps and the radiator cap. Inspect the other hoses. The radiator cap should release pressure in excess of psi noted on cap, usually 15 to 17 psi.
Not knowing what vehicle, 15 psi is probably average.
