The SMC 10-CQSB12-30D is a clean room specification compact cylinder from the CQS series with a 12mm bore and 30mm stroke. Part number decoded: CQS = compact cylinder slim body type, B = basic mount, 12 = bore mm, 30 = stroke mm, D = double-acting. The CQS series is a slimmer variant of the CQ2, featuring a reduced body width that allows closer center-to-center mounting when multiple cylinders must operate side by side in tight configurations.
What differentiates the CQS from the CQ2? Both are compact square-body cylinders, but the CQS features a narrower body profile at the same bore size. This makes the CQS ideal for multi-cylinder arrays where two or more actuators must be mounted adjacent to each other with minimal spacing, such as multi-lane sorting, parallel pick stations, and ganged clamping fixtures. The 12mm bore generates approximately 68N at 0.6 MPa through a 30mm stroke, suitable for light-duty sorting, small part positioning, and micro-assembly operations in clean room environments.
Note that the 10-CQSB12-30D does not include the Z suffix for auto-switch groove verify whether auto-switch mounting is required for your application and specify accordingly. For the standard-width CQ2 at 12mm bore, the CQ2B12 series offers wider mounting accessory compatibility. For longer strokes in the CQS 12mm bore, CQS variants are available up to standard catalog stroke limits. Clean series (10-) with fluorine grease, particle generation grade 1 compliance. RoHS compliant.
