Default Oil Pressure Question

I just installed a new oil pressure sending unit in my Jeep last weekend. I noticed today that after running it up a mountain pass at idle it had a little more than 20 PSI showing on the gauge. When I drive it it climbs to over 60 PSI. Is this normal? Thanks for the help!!
