Yes, 130/705H is the configuration (measurement specification) from the top of the needle to the top of the eye. It has a "flat" at the top of the shank. Most longarms use an industrial needle with a completely round shank, with a different configuration. The needle package will say, "130/705H" right on it. It is different than the thickness of the needle 11/75, 12/80, 14/90, etc. Most domestic machines will take the 130/705H Schmetz needle. At the shop, that's all we used on all the domestic machines we serviced. The Juki 2200QVP is a semi-industrial machine, but it still takes the domestic machine needles.
