Why Choose the ABB CBK-S2KM13 / M2SSK2-103 Key-Operated Selector Switch?
The ABB CBK-S2KM13, identified as M2SSK2-103, is a robust two-position key-operated selector switch designed for controlled operation of industrial machinery, automation systems and electrical control panels. Part of the ABB modular pilot devices range, it provides secure manual selection where access to a machine function or operating mode needs to be restricted.
The key-operated design helps prevent casual or unintended operation by requiring the appropriate physical key to change the selected state. Its two-position configuration makes the M2SSK2-103 suitable for functions such as enable/disable control, authorised mode selection, maintenance access and other applications requiring controlled switching.
Designed as part of ABB's modular pilot-device system, the selector switch can be combined with suitable ABB contact blocks and mounting components to create the required electrical switching arrangement. Its compact panel-mounted construction is well suited to industrial operator stations, machine panels and automation enclosures.

Controlled Selection for Industrial Machinery
Key-operated selector switches provide a simple method of restricting access to particular machine functions. Unlike an unrestricted selector handle, the key actuator requires possession of the appropriate key before the operating state can be changed, making it useful for applications involving authorised operation, maintenance modes and controlled process functions.
The ABB M2SSK2-103 is designed around ABB's modular pilot-device concept, enabling the operator and electrical contact arrangement to be configured for the requirements of the control circuit. This makes it suitable for both new machine designs and industrial control-panel applications.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machinery control panels.
- Authorised machine operating-mode selection.
- Enable and disable control functions.
- Maintenance and service mode selection.
- Automation and production equipment.
- Motor and process control panels.
- OEM machinery and operator control stations.
