pressure(-)gauge plug

My suggestion is based on the assumption that "Mano" stands for "Manometer" (pressure gauge).

See, for example,

Trust me Steffen, within the field of fluid mechanics, manometer is not an unusual term at all. I studied fluid mechanics for the first year of my engineering degree at Sussex University, UK. One of the devices we used during my studies was referred to as a manometer. There are many references to this term on the web as opposed to a "very few native examples". HNY

Peer comment(s):

neutral Steffen Walter : "Manometer" is less frequently used. Although I may have been initially mistaken re. the number of examples of its use, I stand by my comment that "pressure gauge" is used more commonly.
