Why Choose the ABB M3SS6-21G Selector Switch?
The ABB M3SS6-21G is a robust three-position illuminated selector switch operator designed for industrial control panels, machinery and automation systems. Part of the ABB modular pilot devices range, it provides a clear and dependable operator interface for machine commands and control functions.
This selector switch features a green long-handle actuator, three A-B-C operating positions and a chrome-plastic bezel. Its operating arrangement combines maintained and momentary functionality, with positions A and B maintained and spring return from C to B, making it particularly useful where one command needs to be momentarily selected while the other positions remain fixed.
Designed for the standard 22 mm control-panel mounting format, the M3SS6-21G is suitable for illumination and provides IP66 front protection. ABB's modular construction allows the operator to be combined with compatible holders, contact blocks and LED or lamp blocks to create a control function suited to the application.

Reliable Operator Control for Industrial Machinery
Three-position selector switches provide operators with a straightforward method of choosing between different machine commands or operating states. The ABB M3SS6-21G combines maintained A and B positions with a momentary C position that automatically returns to B when released, providing a useful control arrangement for applications requiring both retained and temporary commands.
The ABB modular pilot-device platform allows the selector operator to be integrated with compatible holders, contact blocks and illumination components according to the required electrical control circuit. Its standard 22 mm mounting format makes it well suited to industrial control panels, operator stations and machine interfaces requiring reliable manual control and clear visual identification.
