Limit point setting

By setting the limit points of a pressure gauge, the start value and the end value are set to the corresponding points on the ideal characteristic curve. Although this definition will result in the largest deviation from the characteristic curve compared to the start setting or to the BFSL (best fit straight line), it is the method most easily understood by the user. With information given in datasheets it is therefore important to state how the error has been defined. A deviation of 0.5% from the end value of the characteristic curve during the setting of the limit values corresponds approximately to a deviation of 0.25% from the BFSL.
