The PQ 48/72/96/144 K (K-Serie) are four rotary current meters/voltage meters from PHOENIX CONTACT that can be used to measure direct current or direct voltage. The devices can be installed in switch cabinets, mosaic grids or machines. The front frame, front glass and scale are interchangeable.
This document is a technical datasheet (Datenblatt) for the Weigel PQ K-Series of analog measuring instruments. The series includes models PQ 48K, PQ 72K, PQ 96K, and PQ 144K, which feature a moving coil mechanism with a 90° scale suitable for measuring direct current or voltage.
The devices are designed for installation in switchboards, mosaic racks, or machines within polycarbonate housings. The datasheet provides detailed mechanical data such as housing dimensions and depth, electrical specifications including input resistance and overload limits, and environmental ratings like temperature ranges and shock resistance. This manual is written in German.
