Q: Digital output repeatability is listed as +/-0.2% F.S. +/-1 one digit. What does that
mean?
Repeatability is +/-0.2% F.S. In psi mode, for example, that translates to +/- 0.29psi. However,
the DPS display is only readable to the tenths digit (0.X) after the decimal place and the DPS
must round the measured value up or down accordingly.

Q: Why is the voltage analog output range 1-
5V? Isn’t 0-10V more common?
DPS series switches are designed to operate with an input voltage of 12 to 24VDC. If powered
by a 12VDC supply, a 10V analog output signal could be affected by variations in the supply
voltage. As such, the analog output is limited to 5V.
