Siemens QBM3230U03UD Air Differential Pressure Sensor (S55720-S522)
Overview
The Siemens QBM3230U03UD is a precision air differential pressure (DP) sensor engineered for HVAC, VAV, duct, and clean-room applications. Featuring a selectable measuring range of −0.3 to +0.3 inches water column, output options including 0-10V, 0-5V, or 4-20mA, and a built-in LCD display, it delivers both flexibility and accuracy. With a rugged construction, it supports plastic tubing connections and screw-terminal electrical hookup, making installation and configuration easy and reliable.
Differential air pressure sensor for use in HVAC systems. Measuring range is selectable between -0.3″ and + 0.3″ bidirectional. Output is selectable for 0-10V, 0-5V or 4-20mA. Includes LCD display.

Applications & Use Cases
This sensor is ideal for:
-
Monitoring differential air pressure across filters in heating, ventilating, and air-conditioning (HVAC) systems.
-
Balancing air flow in VAV (Variable Air Volume) or fan-powered terminals.
-
Maintaining clean room or lab environmental conditions by supervising pressure stability.
-
Demand control ventilation and energy-saving control strategies.
Installation & Best Practices
- Mount the sensor with pressure connection nipples facing downward to prevent condensation buildup. Apex Controls
- Use push-on plastic tubing (¼-in) with secure fittings.
- Ensure stable supply voltage within specified range (13.5-33 VDC) for proper output.
- Use LCD for initial calibration, zero adjustment, and verifying operation.
- Location should avoid exposure to corrosive or aggressive gases (sensor is for “air and non-aggressive gases”). Siemens Smart Delivery+1
