Technical Specifications

Version & Model Difference

The Q120 is part of the UE 120 series, which includes various models differentiated by sensor type (diaphragm, piston, bellows), pressure range, wetted materials, and electrical configuration. The Q120 typically denotes a specific configuration with a diaphragm sensor and a lower pressure range. Other models in the series, such as the J120 (piston) or H120 (bellows), are designed for higher pressures or different media compatibility. Additionally, the 120 series offers options for adjustable deadband (e.g., with a suffix) and hazardous location approvals (e.g., Q120-151 for ATEX).
