  A grossly incorrect pressure reading on your MKS Controller can stem from several causes: the controller may be out of calibration, necessitating recalibration; the gas type may be unidentified, requiring identification; the gauge might not be mounted horizontally, requiring horizontal mounting; the sensor could be damaged, possibly by a reactive gas, and thus need replacement; the gauge may be very dirty, indicating a need for cleaning; or there might be extremes of temperature or mechanical vibration, which need to be eliminated.
