Why Choose the ABB E2171610C Pushbutton?
The ABB E2171610C, product type E217-16-10C, is a compact modular illuminated pushbutton with an integrated red LED designed for momentary control and visual indication in electrical distribution and control applications. As part of the ABB E210 command and signalling range, it combines pushbutton control and LED indication in a space-efficient DIN-rail device.
The E217-16-10C features one normally open (1NO) contact, a rated current of 16 A and one maintenance-free red LED. The LED operates across 115–250 V AC, providing clear visual indication while the pulse-contact pushbutton delivers straightforward momentary control for relays, contactors and auxiliary electrical circuits.
Rated for 250 V AC according to EN and operating at 50/60 Hz, the E217-16-10C is only 9 mm wide, equivalent to 0.5 modular spacing. Its compact construction, IP20 protection and integrated indication make it particularly suitable for distribution boards and control panels where DIN-rail space is limited.

Illuminated pushbuttons such as the ABB E217-16-10C combine a momentary electrical command with visual indication in a single modular device. The 1NO pulse contact can provide a temporary switching command to connected control equipment, while the integrated red LED gives operators an immediately visible indication at the distribution board or control panel.
The ABB E217 range is designed for compact command and signalling applications. With its 16 A rating, 115–250 V AC red LED and narrow 9 mm housing, the E217-16-10C reduces the need for separate pushbutton and indicator devices while conserving valuable DIN-rail space.
Typical Applications
- Remote control of contactors and relays.
- Electrical distribution boards and control panels.
- Lighting control and indication circuits.
- Building-services control systems.
- Ventilation and auxiliary equipment control.
- Residential and commercial electrical installations.
- Industrial control and signalling circuits.
- Applications requiring momentary control with visible red LED indication.
