Tire Pressure Units?
1 Answers
Tire pressure commonly uses the following units of measurement: 1 kg/cm²; bar; PSI; kPa (kilopascal). Countries in Europe and America are accustomed to using PSI as the unit, while in China, bar is commonly used to indicate tire pressure. What to do if tire pressure is insufficient: If no visible damage is found on the car's tires, simply inflate them to the normal pressure and reset the tire pressure system. If inspection reveals that a tire has been punctured, promptly drive to an auto repair shop for a patch, then reinflate the tire. If the tire pressure warning appears again some time after inflation, but there is no puncture, it may be due to air leakage caused by a deformed wheel rim. It is recommended to check the wheel rim and replace it if necessary. The working principle of tire pressure monitoring is: Pressure sensors installed inside the tires measure the air pressure, and a wireless transmitter sends the pressure information from inside the tire to a central receiver module.
