Key Features
Operator Type: Key‑operated selector switch with removable key.
Positions & Action: 2‑position maintained action — remains in the selected position until changed manually.
Contacts: Integrated 2 normally open (NO) + 2 normally closed (NC) contacts, enabling multiple circuit switching functions.
Actuator: Key‑activated rotary selector (provides secure control and prevents accidental actuation).
Construction: Modular plastic housing suited for industrial control panel mounting.
Front Protection: High ingress protection on the front panel when installed (dust and water resistance).
Terminal Connections: Screw‑type terminals for secure wiring.
Electrical Ratings
Rated Control Voltage: Suitable for typical industrial control voltages (AC/DC supply).
Rated Insulation Voltage: Designed for low‑voltage control circuits (up to ~690 V).
Contact Rating:
Suitable for AC and DC control loads within typical pilot device ratings.
Functional control of relays, PLC inputs, contactors, and indicator circuits.
Mechanical & Environmental
Mounting: Standard 22 mm panel cut‑out for pilot devices.
Mechanical Durability: Designed for a high number of operation cycles in control panel environments.
Operating Temperature Range: Suitable for typical industrial ambient conditions (approx. –25 °C to +70 °C).
Storage Temperature Range: Broader range for transport and storage.
Front Protection Rating: High degree of dust and water resistance when mounted properly; terminals are protected when enclosed.
Physical & Installation
Dimensions: Fits standard 22 mm panel hole and aligns with modular pilot device layouts.
Bezel / Housing: Durable plastic construction for rugged installation.
Key: Removable key provides security and can be configured to be removed in one or both positions by variant.
Typical Applications
Control panel selector for mode or function control (e.g., Off/On, Manual/Auto).
Secure operator interface where key‑only access is needed.
PLC or relay control inputs requiring two distinct switch states.
Machine and automation systems where human intervention is controlled by key operation.
The ABB M2SSK1‑601‑22 is a 22 mm modular key‑operated selector switch operator designed for industrial control panels and automation systems. It is part of ABB’s modular pilot‑device range, offering a flexible manual control interface where a key is used to select switch positions and can be removed in defined positions. This unit is supplied as the complete key‑operator assembly with built‑in contact blocks, providing multiple contact functions in one pilot device.
