The overpressure rating for a Digiquartz (as stated by Paroscientific) is 1.2 * full scale. The sensor will provide data values above 100% of rated full scale; however, Sea-Bird does not calibrate beyond the rated full scale. Note: If you use the instrument above the rated range, you do so at your own risk; the product will not be covered under warranty.
