Why Choose the ABB M2SS5-31Y Selector Switch?
The ABB M2SS5-31Y is a robust 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 yellow long-handle rotary actuator with illumination capability for clear operator control and indication.
The M2SS5-31Y 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 it suitable for mode selection, equipment control and other industrial command functions where a stable selected state is required.
Designed for a standard 22 mm mounting hole, the M2SS5-31Y combines its yellow illuminated operator with a durable chrome-metal bezel. It is supplied without a contact block, allowing compatible modular contact blocks to be selected according to the required control circuit.

Reliable Selector Control for Industrial Machinery
Selector switches provide operators with a straightforward interface for choosing between predefined machine or process states. The maintained action of the ABB M2SS5-31Y keeps the actuator in its selected position until another position is deliberately chosen, providing clear and predictable manual control.
The M2SS5-31Y forms part of ABB's modular pilot-device system, allowing machine builders and panel designers to combine the operator with compatible holders and contact blocks for the required electrical function. Its illuminated yellow long handle, chrome-metal bezel and standard 22 mm mounting format make it suitable for clearly identifiable industrial operator controls.
