با/نج2 pounds per square inch (PSI) Explanation: If you consult any online reference on injection pressure, you will see that this is how injection pressure is measured. Clearly, the Arabic is a very poor translation from English. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 17 hrs (2010-06-01 19:59:18 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Comment on Asker's Note: It appears that the Arabic "editor" worked from a worse translation, correcting many errors, including the translation of "PSI," but forgot to correct this one instance (he probably did not have "global search and replace" function). It cannot be anything else other than PSI because that is the unit used. The با is for "pound," the نج is for inch, and the 2 is for "square." It is laughable, but that is just the way it is. |
