Why Choose the ABB M3SSC5-30B Selector Switch?
The ABB M3SSC5-30B is a robust three-position momentary selector switch designed for industrial machinery, control panels and automation systems. Part of the ABB modular pilot devices range, it provides dependable manual control where temporary selector commands and automatic return to the centre position are required.
This selector switch features a black long-handle actuator with A-B-C operating positions and spring return from both A and C to B. Either outer position therefore returns automatically to the centre B position when the operator releases the handle, making the M3SSC5-30B particularly suitable for directional, jog, raise/lower and other temporary machine-control commands.
Designed for standard 22 mm panel mounting, the M3SSC5-30B combines a chrome-metal front ring with non-illuminated construction and IP66 front protection. It is supplied without a contact block, allowing compatible ABB modular holders and contact blocks to be selected according to the required electrical switching arrangement.
Key Advantages
- Three-position momentary operation provides temporary A-B-C machine or process control.
- Spring return from A and C to B automatically restores the selector to its centre position.
- Black long-handle actuator provides positive and convenient manual operation.
- Chrome-metal front ring provides a durable industrial operator-panel finish.
- Standard 22 mm panel mounting supports straightforward integration into control panels.
- IP66 front protection supports use in demanding industrial environments.

Reliable Spring-Return Control for Industrial Machinery
Three-position momentary selector switches provide operators with a straightforward method of issuing temporary commands in either direction from a defined centre position. The ABB M3SSC5-30B provides A-B-C operation with spring return from both outer positions to B, automatically restoring the selector to its centre position when the actuator is released.
This operating arrangement is particularly useful for jog, forward/reverse, raise/lower, open/close and similar temporary machine-control functions. As part of ABB's modular pilot-device platform, the M3SSC5-30B can be combined with compatible holders and contact blocks according to the required electrical switching arrangement.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machinery control panels.
- Forward/reverse temporary control functions.
- Raise/lower and open/close controls.
- Machine jogging and positioning commands.
- Material handling and conveyor equipment.
- Production and process automation systems.
- OEM machinery and electrical control assemblies.
