Why Choose the ABB M3SS2-11Y Selector Switch?
The ABB M3SS2-11Y is a robust three-position momentary illuminated selector switch designed for industrial control panels, machinery and automation systems. Part of ABB's modular 22 mm pilot device range, it features a yellow short-handle rotary actuator with a black plastic bezel for clear manual control and visual indication.
The M3SS2-11Y provides three selector positions with momentary spring-return operation from A to B and from C to B. This means the actuator automatically returns to the centre B position when released from either outer position, making it particularly suitable for temporary directional, adjustment and machine-command functions.
Designed for standard 22 mm panel mounting, the M3SS2-11Y is an illuminated modular operator supplied without a contact block. Its front provides IP66 protection, while ABB's modular construction allows compatible contact and illumination components to be selected to suit the required electrical control function.
Key Advantages
- Three-position momentary selector switch for industrial command functions.
- Spring return from A and C to centre position B provides automatic return after operation.
- Yellow illuminated short-handle actuator combines manual control with visible indication.
- Black plastic bezel provides a practical industrial operator interface.
- Standard 22 mm panel mounting simplifies integration into control stations.
- IP66 front protection supports installation in demanding industrial environments.
- Modular construction allows compatible ABB contact and illumination components to be selected for the application.

Reliable Momentary Control for Industrial Machinery
Three-position momentary selector switches provide operators with temporary commands in either direction while automatically returning to a defined centre position. The ABB M3SS2-11Y returns from both outer positions A and C to centre position B when released, making it well suited to machine functions where an operator command should remain active only while deliberately selected.
The M3SS2-11Y forms part of ABB's modular pilot-device system, allowing machine builders and panel designers to combine the illuminated operator with compatible holders, contact blocks and illumination components. Its yellow short handle, standard 22 mm format and robust front protection make it suitable for industrial machinery and automation operator interfaces.
Typical Applications

- Forward / centre / reverse command functions.
- Raise / neutral / lower control functions.
- Jogging and temporary machine commands.
- Manufacturing and production equipment.
- Material handling and conveyor systems.
- OEM machinery and industrial automation systems.
