Why Choose the ABB MEP3-1004 Modular Enclosure?
The ABB MEP3-1004 is a complete three-position modular control station designed for industrial machinery, control systems and operator interfaces. Part of the ABB modular pilot device range, this assembled plastic enclosure combines three spring-return pushbuttons to provide dedicated Start (I), Stop (O) and Start (II) control functions.
The station is configured with a green Start (I) pushbutton with 1 NO contact on the left, a red Stop (O) pushbutton with 1 NC contact in the centre and a second green Start (II) pushbutton with 1 NO contact on the right. This arrangement provides an intuitive operator interface for machinery requiring two separate start commands together with a central stop function.
Constructed from durable plastic with a light grey base and dark grey cover, the MEP3-1004 provides IP66 enclosure protection for dependable operation in demanding industrial environments. Its surface-mounted format provides a practical standalone control station where panel-mounted operators are not appropriate.

Practical Start and Stop Control for Industrial Machinery
The ABB MEP3-1004 provides a clearly arranged operator interface for applications requiring two independent start commands and a common stop command. Its two normally open start contacts and normally closed stop contact make the station suitable for integration into conventional industrial control circuits.
The robust plastic housing protects the installed pilot devices while allowing the complete station to be mounted directly onto machinery, walls or other suitable surfaces. The colour-coded green and red pushbuttons give operators immediate visual identification of the available control functions.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machinery control stations.
- Motor and process control systems.
