Our standard gauges are shipped without a resistor in the
R-5 position in the high relay circuit and without a resistor
in the R-13 position in the low relay circuit. This produces
about ± 1 digit hysteresis.
Installing resistor values as shown in the table will
increase the hysteresis. Keep in mind that these are
digits, not mTorr, Torr, or any other pressure unit. ±10
digits is ±10 mTorr on a 2000 mTorr full scale instrument.
On an instrument with full scale of 20.00 Torr ± 10 digits
is +/-.10 Torr. The set point is always in the middle of the
hysteresis band. For example, a 20.00 Torr gauge with a
set point of 15.00 Torr and a hysteresis of ± 10 digits
would cause the relay to change state at 15.10 Torr and
14.90 Torr.
