Why Choose the ABB E2171601E48 Pushbutton?
The ABB E2171601E48, product type E217-16-01E48, is a compact modular illuminated pushbutton with an integrated yellow LED designed for momentary control and visual indication in electrical distribution and control applications. Part of the ABB E217 / E210 command and signalling range, it combines a normally closed switching contact and LED indication within a space-efficient DIN-rail device.
The E217-16-01E48 features one normally closed (1NC) contact, a rated current of 16 A and one integrated yellow LED. The LED operates across 12–48 V AC/DC, making this variant particularly suitable for low-voltage command and signalling circuits where clear visual indication is required alongside momentary switching.
Rated for 250 V AC according to EN with a power loss of 0.72 W, the E217-16-01E48 is only 9 mm wide, equivalent to 0.5 modular spacing. Its IP20 protection, compact dimensions and integrated yellow indication make it particularly suitable for distribution boards and control panels where DIN-rail space is limited.

Illuminated pushbuttons such as the ABB E217-16-01E48 combine a momentary electrical command with visual indication in a single modular device. Its 1NC contact is closed in the normal state and opens while the pushbutton is actuated, making it suitable for control functions that require a momentary interruption of the associated circuit.
The E217-16-01E48 is specifically configured with a 12–48 V AC/DC yellow LED, making it well suited to low-voltage control and signalling circuits. Combined with its 16 A contact rating and narrow 9 mm housing, it provides compact switching and indication functionality while conserving valuable DIN-rail space.
Typical Applications
- Low-voltage AC/DC command and signalling circuits.
- Momentary control circuits requiring a normally closed contact.
- Remote control of contactors and relays.
- Electrical distribution boards and control panels.
- Building-services control systems.
- Industrial auxiliary and automation circuits.
- Equipment status and command functions.
- Applications requiring momentary control with visible yellow LED indication.
