Description
SMC AR20K-F02BE-D — AR-D series modular regulator, 1/4" port, with a built-in check valve that lets downstream air escape when the supply is cut. The D series is the current generation, replacing the discontinued AR(K)-B.

Features of the D series
- Reshaped handle — easier to grip when releasing the lock
- Choice of gauge: square embedded gauge, round gauge, or digital pressure switch
- Panel mount compatible with the earlier AR(K)-B series; brackets and set nuts are common to both generations
Embedded gauge or round gauge
The embedded square gauge sits flush in the regulator body, so nothing projects into the panel space and the reading is taken from the front. The round gauge stands proud on top and is easier to read from an angle. Both cover the same pressure range — the choice is about where the operator stands.
Replacing an AR(K)-B unit
The D series is the direct successor to the AR(K)-B, discontinued by SMC in March 2025. Panel mounting, brackets and set nuts carry over, so an existing installation usually takes the new unit without rework. Tell us the old code and we will confirm the matching D specification.
Ordering
Order by the full code AR20K-F02BE-D. The K marks the reverse flow function, F02 the port thread, and BE the bracket and embedded gauge — one character changes the part. The AR20K-02BG-D (round gauge) and AR30K-03BG-D (3/8") are available in the same family.
Supply from Korea
Genuine SMC, stocked and shipped from Gyeonggi-do, Korea, with export packing and commercial documents prepared as standard.
