Why Choose the ABB M3SS3-10B Selector Switch?
The ABB M3SS3-10B is a three-position maintained/momentary selector switch designed for industrial control panels, machinery and automation systems. Part of ABB's modular 22 mm pilot device range, it features a black short-handle rotary actuator with a black plastic bezel for straightforward manual machine control.
The M3SS3-10B combines maintained and momentary functions across its three positions: A and B are fixed, while position C provides spring return to B. This operating arrangement allows one side of the selector to provide a maintained command while the opposite side provides a temporary command that automatically returns to the centre position when released.
The M3SS3-10B is a non-illuminated modular selector switch supplied without a contact block, allowing compatible ABB modular contact components to be selected for the required electrical switching arrangement. Its combination of fixed and spring-return positions makes it particularly useful for machine functions requiring both persistent and temporary operator commands.
Key Advantages
- Combined maintained/momentary operation provides two control behaviours from one selector.
- A and B positions are fixed for maintained selection.
- Spring return from C to B provides a temporary command from the third position.
- Black short-handle actuator provides clear rotary operation.
- Black plastic bezel provides a practical industrial operator interface.
- Modular construction allows compatible ABB contact blocks to be selected for the required circuit.
- Suitable for machinery functions requiring both stable mode selection and momentary commands.
Key Features

- Three-position maintained/momentary operation.
- A and B fixed positions.
- Spring return from C to B.
- Short-handle rotary actuator.
- Black actuator colour.
- Non-illuminated design.
- Black plastic bezel.
- Supplied with no contact block.
- Designed as a modular industrial pilot-device operator.
Flexible Maintained and Momentary Control for Industrial Machinery
Selector switches combining maintained and momentary positions allow different operator commands to be handled through a single control device. On the ABB M3SS3-10B, positions A and B remain fixed after selection, while position C automatically returns to B when released. This provides a practical interface where one command must remain selected and another should operate only temporarily.
The M3SS3-10B forms part of ABB's modular pilot-device system, allowing machine builders and panel designers to configure the operator with compatible contact blocks for the required circuit logic. Its black short-handle actuator and black plastic bezel provide a compact and clearly identifiable control interface for industrial machinery and automation equipment.
Typical Applications
- Industrial machinery control panels.
- Maintained mode selection with a temporary command function.
- Machine setup and operating controls.
- Jogging and temporary machine commands.
- Manufacturing and production equipment.
- Material handling and conveyor systems.
- OEM machinery and industrial automation systems.
