Why Choose the ABB M3SSC3-10B Selector Switch?
The ABB M3SSC3-10B is a versatile three-position selector switch operator with centre-position contact operation, designed for industrial machinery, automation systems and electrical control panels. Part of ABB’s modular pilot-device range, it features a black short-handle actuator with a black plastic bezel for dependable and clearly defined manual control.
The M3SSC3-10B combines maintained and momentary operation. Positions A and B are maintained, while position C provides spring return to B. Its centre-position operating design also supports contact actuation at the centre position when configured with suitable ABB modular contact blocks.
ABB order code 1SFA611252R1006 identifies this exact M3SSC3-10B selector switch. The non-illuminated operator uses the standard 22 mm mounting format and is supplied without contact blocks, allowing the required contact arrangement to be configured separately for the control application.

Flexible Centre-Position Control for Industrial Machinery
The ABB M3SSC range is designed for applications where a three-position selector must support contact operation at the centre position as well as the outer handle positions. The M3SSC3-10B combines maintained positions A and B with a momentary C position that automatically returns to B when released.
Compatible ABB modular contact blocks can be arranged to suit the required switching logic, including applications requiring separate circuits to be associated with the A, B and C positions. This makes the M3SSC3-10B particularly useful for machinery and automation systems requiring flexible multi-state operator control.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machine control panels.
- Factory automation equipment.
- Three-state machine control functions.
- Mode and function selection systems.
- Momentary command functions with retained selection.
- Conveyors and material handling equipment.
- OEM machinery and electrical control systems.
