The `min_max` sensor platform is consuming the state from other sensors and determine the minimum, maximum, and the mean of the collected states. The sensor will always show you the highest/lowest value which was received from your all monitored sensors. If you have spikes in your values, it's recommended filter/equalize your values with a [statistics sensor](/components/sensor.statistics/) first.

Sensors with an unknown state will be ignored in the calculation. If the unit of measurement of the sensors differs, the `min_max` sensor will go to an error state where the value is `UNKNOWN` and the unit of measurement is `ERR`.
