Why Choose the ABB MLBL-00BL Lamp Block?
The ABB MLBL-00BL is a modular lamp block designed for use with compatible ABB illuminated pilot devices in industrial control, indication and signalling applications. Part of ABB's modular pilot-device range, it provides the electrical lamp-block interface required to add illumination to compatible operator and indicator assemblies.
Unlike ABB MLBL variants with an integrated LED, the MLBL-00BL is designed with a BA9s lamp holder, allowing a suitable replaceable lamp to be selected for the required control voltage and indication colour. This provides flexibility when configuring illuminated pushbuttons, selector switches and pilot-light assemblies for machinery and automation systems.
The modular construction supports straightforward installation within compatible ABB pilot-device assemblies, while screw connections provide secure electrical termination. The MLBL-00BL is therefore a practical choice for panel builders and machine manufacturers requiring a replaceable-lamp solution rather than an integrated LED block.
Key Advantages
- BA9s lamp holder supports compatible replaceable lamps.
- Allows the lamp voltage and colour to be selected separately for the application.
- Designed for compatible ABB 22 mm modular pilot devices.
- Screw connections provide secure industrial control wiring.
- Replaceable-lamp design simplifies servicing when the light source reaches the end of its service life.
- Modular construction supports efficient panel assembly and maintenance.
- Suitable for illuminated control and indication functions in industrial machinery.

Flexible Replaceable-Lamp Indication for Industrial Controls
The ABB MLBL-00BL provides the lamp-block interface for compatible illuminated pilot devices while leaving the light source as a separately selected component. Its BA9s lamp holder enables a compatible lamp to be fitted according to the required indication colour, supply voltage and application.
This replaceable-lamp approach can be useful where maintenance practices call for separately serviceable light sources or where a specific BA9s lamp is required. Combined with ABB's modular pilot-device architecture, the MLBL-00BL provides a flexible foundation for illuminated operator controls and status indicators in industrial installations.
