رطل لكل بوصة مربَّعة قياسيًّا
Explanation:
Pounds per square inch absolute (psia) is used to make it clear that the pressure is relative to a vacuum rather than the ambient atmospheric pressure. Since atmospheric pressure at sea level is around 14.7 psi, this will be added to any pressure reading made in air at sea level. The converse is pounds per square inch gauge or pounds per square inch gage (psig), indicating that the pressure is relative to atmospheric pressure.

PSIA: pounds per square inch absolute
الوزن محسوبًا بالأرطال للبوصة المربَّعة خالصة (أو) مُطلَقة
PSIG: pounds per square inch gauge
الوزن محسوبًا بالأرطال للبوصة المربَّعة قياسيًّا
