Tensor networks provide a natural language for noninvertible symmetries in general Hamiltonian lattice models. We use ZX-diagrams, which are tensor network presentations of quantum circuits, to define a noninvertible operator implementing the Wegner duality in <a:math xmlns:a="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><a:mrow><a:mn>3</a:mn><a:mo>+</a:mo><a:mn>1</a:mn><a:mi mathvariant="normal">D</a:mi></a:mrow></a:math> lattice <d:math xmlns:d="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><d:msub><d:mi mathvariant="double-struck">Z</d:mi><d:mn>2</d:mn></d:msub></d:math> gauge theory. The noninvertible algebra, which mixes with lattice translations, can be efficiently computed using ZX-calculus. We further deform the <g:math xmlns:g="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><g:msub><g:mi mathvariant="double-struck">Z</g:mi><g:mn>2</g:mn></g:msub></g:math> gauge theory while preserving the duality and find a model with nine exactly degenerate ground states on a torus, consistent with the Lieb-Schultz-Mattis-type constraint imposed by the symmetry. Finally, we provide a ZX-diagram presentation of the noninvertible duality operators (including noninvertible parity and reflection symmetries) of generalized Ising models based on graphs, encompassing the <j:math xmlns:j="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><j:mrow><j:mn>1</j:mn><j:mo>+</j:mo><j:mn>1</j:mn><j:mi mathvariant="normal">D</j:mi></j:mrow></j:math> Ising model, the three-spin Ising model, the Ashkin-Teller model, and the <m:math xmlns:m="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><m:mrow><m:mn>2</m:mn><m:mo>+</m:mo><m:mn>1</m:mn><m:mi mathvariant="normal">D</m:mi></m:mrow></m:math> plaquette Ising model. The mixing (or lack thereof) with spatial symmetries is understood from a unifying perspective based on graph theory.
