Characteristic curve and setpoint values

The fuel pressure information is sent to the engine control across a signal line. The fuel pressure signal for evaluation fluctuates depending on the pressure. The measuring range of approx. 0.5 - 4.5 volts corresponds to a fuel pressure of 0.1 MPa (1 bar) to 1.1 MPa (11 bar).
