Why Choose the ABB M2SS5-20R Selector Switch?
The ABB M2SS5-20R is a durable two-position maintained selector switch designed for industrial control panels, machinery and automation systems. Part of ABB's modular 22 mm pilot device range, it features a distinctive red long-handle rotary actuator for clear and reliable manual control.
The M2SS5-20R uses maintained operation, allowing the selector to remain in the chosen position until it is manually changed. Its two maintained positions are designated A and C, making the operator suitable for straightforward mode selection, equipment control and other industrial command functions.
Designed for a standard 22 mm mounting hole, the M2SS5-20R has a non-illuminated red actuator with a chrome-plastic bezel. The front provides IP66 protection, supporting dependable installation in demanding industrial environments where resistance to dust and water ingress is important.

Reliable Selector Control for Industrial Machinery
Selector switches provide operators with a simple mechanical interface for choosing between predefined machine or process states. The maintained action of the ABB M2SS5-20R keeps the actuator in the selected position until another position is deliberately chosen, providing clear and predictable manual control.
The M2SS5-20R is designed as part of ABB's modular pilot-device system, allowing control-panel designers and machine builders to configure operator interfaces using compatible modular components. Its long red handle, robust front protection and standard 22 mm mounting format make it suitable for a broad range of industrial control applications.
