Why Choose the ABB M3SS5-11G Selector Switch?
The ABB M3SS5-11G is a robust 3-position illuminated selector switch designed for momentary operator control in industrial machinery, electrical control panels and automation systems. Part of the ABB Modular plastic pilot device range, it features a green illuminated long-handle actuator and black plastic bezel for clear identification and dependable operation.
The M3SS5-11G uses a momentary operating principle with spring return from positions A and C to the centre B position. This configuration allows temporary commands to be issued in either direction while automatically returning the selector to its central position when the operator releases the handle.
Designed for standard 22 mm class control-panel mounting, the M3SS5-11G provides a compact and intuitive operator interface. Its illuminated green actuator improves visual identification, while the modular construction allows compatible ABB contact blocks, holders and illumination components to be selected according to the requirements of the control circuit.

Reliable Momentary Control for Industrial Machinery
Momentary selector switches provide machine operators with a straightforward method of issuing temporary directional or process commands. The ABB M3SS5-11G provides two momentary selections around a central resting position, automatically returning from either outer position to B when released.
This operating arrangement makes the M3SS5-11G well suited to applications such as forward/reverse, raise/lower and left/right commands. As part of ABB's Modular pilot device system, it can be combined with compatible contact and illumination components to create an operator assembly matched to the control requirements of industrial machinery.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machinery control panels.
- Forward and reverse machine commands.
- Raise and lower control functions.
- Material handling and conveyor systems.
- Factory automation equipment.
- OEM machinery and operator control stations.
