How to Identify Release Buttons Before and After Change

Protruding mark

No protruding mark

Release button

Release button

In order to improve operability, the outside diameter of the release button has been enlarged for the 

new KQ2

 series. 

Therefore, the usable color caps will differ between pre-change and post-change products. 
Please contact SMC if anything is unclear.

The release button for both the fitting/

KQ2

 and color cap/

KQ2C

 after the change can be identified by the protruding mark on the left side 

of the 

 logo, and the release button before the change has no protruding mark. The same identification method is used for metric 

size and inch size.

  Along with the change of the release button, the model of the color cap/

KQ2C

 is changed from 

KQ2C- A

 to 

KQ2C- B

.

  There is no change of the model for the fitting/

KQ2

.
