Deadband is also known as hysteresis and is the amount of a measured variable (pressure, temperature, etc.) between the point where a switch closes and then re-opens. It can be implemented is software if you have an analog input (i.e., open at 1.02 PSI, close at 0.98 PSI) or designed into a switching mechanism. Often the deadband of a switch is fixed and cannot be adjusted. A typical example is in a wall thermostat in your house.
For instance, some brands of instruments equipped with miniaturized pellistor type LEL sensors have a dead-band that stretches all the way from -3% to +3% LEL. In other words, in the presence of a rising concentration of gas, the first reading displayed is 4% LEL.or instance, some brands of instruments equipped with miniaturized pellistor type LEL sensors have a dead-band that stretches all the way from -3% to +3% LEL.
