Why Choose the ABB MJS11-60B Joystick?
The ABB MJS11-60B is a modular 4-position maintained joystick with latching function, designed for directional control and operator-command applications in industrial machinery and automation systems. Identified by ABB order code 1SFA611711R6006, it combines four stable operating positions with a latching mechanism for applications where the selected command needs to remain engaged.
Part of ABB's modular plastic pilot-device range, the MJS11-60B features a black, non-illuminated joystick actuator and a durable chrome-metal bezel. Its maintained operation allows the joystick to remain in the selected position until deliberately moved, making it well suited to machine functions requiring persistent directional commands.
The MJS11-60B is designed for modular industrial control installations and is supplied without contact blocks, allowing compatible ABB micro switch blocks to be selected according to the required electrical control arrangement. Its robust construction and high ingress protection make it suitable for demanding industrial environments.

Maintained Directional Control for Industrial Machinery
Maintained industrial joysticks allow several directional commands to be combined into one compact operator device while retaining the selected position after actuation. The ABB MJS11-60B provides four operating positions together with a latching function, making it suitable for machine functions that need to remain selected until the operator intentionally changes the command.
The modular design allows compatible ABB contact blocks to be configured according to the required electrical control scheme. Combined with its robust chrome-metal bezel and high ingress protection, the MJS11-60B provides a practical operator interface for demanding machinery and automation installations.
