Differential is the hysteresis (dead band), or change in level,
necessary to switch electronic unit from one state to another.
It is useful to prevent oscillation "chatter" on those occasions
when level happens to be right at switching point or when
surface is agitated.
RMT Series level control with adjustable differential allows
user to determine amount of capacitance change (hence level)
between control point and recovery point. User can select two
points on a vertical sensing element where Alarm and Normal
points switch.
Range of operation is 3 to 100pF.
Low point range is that range of capacitance over which lower
switching point may be adjusted.
Differential range corresponds to differential in level on sensing
element and depends on both the capacitance of the element
itself and the properties of the material being measured. See
Figure 3-2 for location of adjustments. For calibration of
adjustable differential units, see Section 3.3.5
