Well, there is no generic answer to your question. The meaning of
attributes raw value is vendor/model/revision specific.
Even the cooked value ("VALUE") has no defined meaning beyond simple
"above THRESH/below THRESH".
So you need to ask device's vendor. Vendor's specification may or may
not be available to public.
Fortunately, Intel disclosed required information for S3500 model. Did
you read the product specification ?

Information you are interested in are available in chapter 5.4.
