Why Choose the ABB M3SS7-11G Selector Switch?
The ABB M3SS7-11G is a 3-position maintained/momentary illuminated selector switch designed for operator control in industrial machinery, electrical control panels and automation systems. Part of the ABB Modular pilot device range, it features a green illuminated short-handle actuator and black plastic bezel for clear identification and dependable industrial operation.
The M3SS7-11G combines maintained positions B and C with a momentary A position that spring-returns to B. This operating arrangement provides two stable selections together with a temporary command, making the selector useful where multiple control functions need to be combined within one compact operator.
Designed for standard 22 mm control-panel mounting, the M3SS7-11G provides a compact and intuitive interface. Its green illuminated actuator improves visual identification, while IP66 front protection supports use in demanding industrial environments and ABB's modular construction allows compatible contact and illumination components to be selected for the application.

Flexible Maintained and Momentary Machine Control
The ABB M3SS7-11G combines maintained and spring-return functions within a single three-position operator. Positions B and C remain selected after the handle is released, while position A provides a temporary command and automatically returns to B when released.
This configuration is useful for applications where operators require stable mode selection alongside a temporary control function. The illuminated green actuator provides clear visual identification, while ABB's modular architecture enables compatible contact blocks and illumination components to be selected for the electrical requirements of the control system.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machinery control panels.
- Machine operating-mode selection.
- Temporary machine command functions.
- Factory automation equipment.
- Material handling and conveyor systems.
- OEM machinery and operator control stations.
