1) Total Error Band (TEB) includes the combined errors due to non-linearity, hysteresis, non-repeatability and thermal effects over the compensated temperature range per ISA S51.1.

2) For sampling rates greater than 3 Hz, the pressure/temperature averaging must be reduced as required.

3) Intermediate level ranges are available.

4) Available for level ranges <=50 feet (15m) only.
