Why Choose the ABB M3SS2-31L Selector Switch?
The ABB M3SS2-31L is a robust 3-position illuminated selector switch designed for manual control and selection functions in industrial machinery, control panels and automation systems. Part of the versatile ABB Modular pilot device range, it combines a blue illuminated short-handle actuator with a durable chrome-metal bezel for reliable operation and clear operator identification.
The M3SS2-31L features a momentary operating action with spring return from positions A and C to the centre B position. This operating principle makes it particularly suitable for temporary directional or control commands where the selector must automatically return to its normal centre position when released.
Designed for standard 22 mm control-panel mounting, the M3SS2-31L provides a compact and professional operator interface. Its blue illuminated actuator improves visual identification, while IP66 front protection supports installation in demanding industrial environments. The operator is supplied without a contact block, allowing compatible ABB contact and illumination components to be selected for the application.

Reliable Operator Control for Industrial Machinery
Selector switches provide machine operators with an intuitive method of issuing control commands from an electrical panel or operator station. The three-position configuration of the ABB M3SS2-31L enables two momentary selections around a central resting position, making it well suited to functions such as forward/reverse, raise/lower and left/right commands.
The ABB Modular pilot device range is designed for flexible control-panel configuration. Compatible contact blocks and illumination components can be combined with the M3SS2-31L operator to create a control function suited to the electrical and operational requirements of industrial machinery and automation systems.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machinery control panels.
- Factory automation equipment.
- Forward and reverse machine controls.
- Raise and lower control functions.
- Material handling and conveyor systems.
- OEM machinery and operator control stations.
