English term or phrase: high - low
From a troubleshooting manual of a refuse collector:

Context:
"Pot. Pendulum is a calibrated value between 0 – 100% (High position ~0% and low position ~100%), ..."


Translation:
"Das Potentiometerpendel ist ein Kalibrierwert zwischen 0% und 100% (Obere Position ~0% und untere Position ~100%). " ?

obere - untere (Position)
Explanation:
This robot uses an innovative idea of using a potentiometer attached with a pendulum. This arrangement provides the ability to sense the angle and to keep the robot inexpensive.

HOW IS DEVIATION MEASURED?
Early measurements of deviation were performed using piezo-pendulum sensors and potentiometer-pendulum sensors.
http://www.wellog.com/deviation.htm

Typical of vertical reference devices commercially available are potentiometer pendulum transducers, electromagnetic pendulous vertical sensors, and electrolytic vertical sensors. The potentiometer pendulum transducers were not suitable for use in the camera because the pendulums did not have repeatability under static conditions.

"Pot. Pendulum is a calibrated value between 0 – 100% (High position ~0% and low position ~100%), ..."
=>
Das Pendelpotentiometer ist im Bereich von 0 - 100 & kalibriert (obere Position = 0%, untere Position = 100%).

Kann auch mit "liefert kalibrierte Werte im Bereich von ... " übersetzt werden.

Explanation:
Das Pendelpotentiometer liefert kalibrierte Widerstandswerte zwischen 0 % und 100 % (Rest siehe oben).
Zwar ist ein Teil meiner Übersetzung eher interpretiert, aber mangels weiterer Angaben technisch nicht falsch und liefert die notwendige Information. Wenn du herausfinden könntest, was genau erfasst wird (Füllstandshöhe etc.), kannst du meine Übersetzung daraufhin anpassen.
