in this range LTDR will have the specified measurement performance. It is
recommended that the maximum and minimum liquid levels to be measured in
the tank are actually within the measuring range [M] of the sensor (see figure
10)
freely positionable within the measuring range [M]
hysteresis can be set by defining separate upper and lower thresholds; if those
are set at the same position, the minimum hysteresis of 3 mm applies
