Overview

The ABB M3SS2-30B is a 3-position, momentary modular selector switch from ABB Electrification, designed for precise control in industrial automation and control panel applications. This non-illuminated switch features a durable chrome metal bezel and a black short handle, offering clear visual and tactile feedback. The M3SS2-30B operates with a spring return mechanism, ensuring that the handle automatically returns to the center position (B) from either the left (A) or right (C) position after momentary activation. This momentary action is crucial for functions requiring transient signals, such as starting or stopping machinery. Engineered for reliability, this switch requires a standard Ø29 mm (1.14") panel cutout for straightforward mounting. The actuator has a diameter of 30 mm (1.18") and a height of 48.5 mm (1.91"). The robust chrome metal construction provides enhanced corrosion resistance, making it suitable for challenging industrial environments where durability is paramount. The M3SS2-30B is designed for use with ABB's modular contact blocks (sold separately), allowing for flexible configuration of Normally Open (NO) and Normally Closed (NC) circuits. It supports up to 3 poles, enabling complex control logic. This switch is ideal for machine control, process automation, and building management systems where reliable momentary switching with automatic reset is required. Key specifications include a 30 mm actuator diameter, a 48.5 mm height, and a 30 mm bezel diameter. The M3SS2-30B is part of ABB's M3SS series, known for its modularity and ease of integration. Each unit weighs approximately 0.024 kg. The package quantity is 10 units per box. For complete functionality, pair this actuator with compatible ABB contact blocks such as the M3SSC1-30B (single NO/NC circuit) or other M3SSC series blocks to achieve the desired circuit configurations. The order code for this specific model is 1SFA611232R1006.
