agree  Hector Aires: O sea la presión medida por el manómetro. La letra g en "psig" es gauge también. Bueno, escribe presión manométrica y serás feliz.

dispositivo de medición


Explanation:
Suele referirse a un dispositivo de medición, indicador, calibrador, etc. Sin embargo, en este caso, creo que debe omitirse su traducción, dado que en el texto se facilitan dos mediciones distintas (kilopascales o PSI), en función del dispositivo de medición utilizado.

manométrica


Explanation:
Te queda "aire presurizado a aproximadamente 62 kilopascales o 9 psig de presión manométrica"

Pounds per square inch is usually written as psig (pounds per square inch gauge) since that is where the measurement is always taken.

Pero si pones simplemente "presión" ya se entiende que es la que indica el manómetro, lo indican las mismas unidades.

Saludos,

A gauge is a device which displayes a mesuremed vale. E.g. the tire pressure gauge. However, in the world of karting, one usually means the displays mounted to the steering wheel when referring to gauges. These particular gauges are most commonly the tach and the temperature gauge, measuring RPM and CHT respectively. These masurements are essential to proper driving and tuning of the kart. Other measurements may be taken as well, e.g. the EGT. Many gauges on the market can display 2 or even 3 values, so that only one unit needs to be mounted to the steering wheel. The most popular brands are Digitron and My-Chron. Such gauges are also referred to as displays. To get an idea about the options and pricing of these gauges, click here.
