We experimentally demonstrate the pressure-induced ordering in the model tetragonal S=1 quantum paramagnet NiCl2·4SC(NH2)2 (DTN). Employing TDO susceptibility and ultrasound techniques, we show that the spin gap vanishes and the magnetic order appears at a critical pressure Pc=4.2(3) kbar. Powder neutron diffraction reveals undistorted tetragonal symmetry at the magnetic criticality. We describe the obtained critical fields employing linear spin-wave theory and a quasi-1D numeric approximation, circumventing the quantum renormalization effects for spin-Hamiltonian parameteres. The studies are complemented by high-pressure ESR measurements.
