I've just seen this picture for the first time. If you look closely at the bottom right of each gauge, it looks as if the outer pressure scales are marked MPa? Hard to see, the picture is not sufficiently hi-res.

If this is true, then the original email received my Michael may just have been written by a know-nothing minion, in order to not have to bother someone in the company who actually might know about these things.

Yellow Jacket is a company that makes equipment for servicing Air
Conditioning equipment, both Home and Auto. The A/C guy was around my house
and I noticed the guage had psi and kg/cm2 indications as well as Celsius
and Fahrenheit. I wrote asking if they had guages marked in kilopascals.
Here is the reply, just shows the total ignorance of most of the American
population.

Is it OK for us to write to Yellow Jacket?

What are all the scales on each gauge? There appear to be five scales on each,
which is too many if one indicates temperature and the other pressure.
