The Compact Range is a very price competitive “all-in-one”
alternative to traditional modular products. The ABB family
design with the same appearance from the front side is an
advantage when combining the Compact range with the
Modular range.
The all-in-one design makes everything easier; the entire
functionality is condensed into one unit. Each item has a single
ordering number.
The Compact range includes Pushbuttons, Selector Switches,
Emergency Stops and Pilot Lights. The Compact range works
in perfect harmony with the extensive Modular range since the
front design is identical.

Signal Towers &

A solution for every signalling field
The modular 70 mm Signal Tower system offers a wide range of
optical and audible elements in all common voltages. A bayonet
mechanism allows the components to be mechanically and electri-
cally connected within seconds. Up to 5 signalling elements can be
combined per station and the protection degree is IP54.
The vandal proof design of Signal Beacons withstands all mechani-
cal and natural challenges, indoors and outdoors. The protection
degree is IP65.

use of adapters, be mounted in 30
mm holes.
Plastic Enclosures
ABB offers 1-, 2-, 3-, 4- and 6- seat Plastic Enclosures made of
PC and suitable for indoor and outdoor use. All enclosures are
approved according to IP66 and NEMA Type 1, 3R, 4, 4X, 12
and 13. The fronts are made in a dark grey color and the bases
are light grey. The 1-seat enclosures are also available with yellow
fronts suitable for emergency stop applications.
The enclosures are equipped with DIN-rails suitable for rear
mounted contact blocks and have space for 4 contact blocks /
lamp block for each operator.
Enclosures for the Compact Range
1-seat Enclosures are available with yellow front for Emergency
Stops and dark grey fronts for other operators.
Metal Enclosures
ABB also offers 1-, 2-, 3-, 4- and 6-seat Metal Enclosures in a
light grey color. These enclosures are approved according to IP66
and IP67.

The Modular range is extensive and well known all around the world
for its flexibility and robustness. By combining a few basic components,
a large combination of devices can be acquired.
In addition to traditional operators like Pushbuttons, Selector Switches,
Emergency Stops and Pilot Lights, ABB also offers a wide range of
special functions such as Machine Stops, Toggle Switches, Buzzers,
Definite Purpose Pushbuttons, Potentiometers and Reset Buttons.
Emergency Stops and Machine Stops in Modular and Compact range
Emergency Stops
The Emergency Stops are designed for tough industrial environ-
ments. The products are approved according to IEC 60947-5-5 and
meet protection degree IP66 on the front side and IP20 on the termi-
nal side. They are also approved in accordance with NEMA Type 1,
3R, 4, 4X,12 and 13.
Emergency Stop test IEC60947-5-5:

Machine Stops
These maintained mushroom pushbuttons have the same design as
the Emergency Stop pushbuttons, except for the color. The products
have passed the same tests but do not, due to the black color, fulfil
the requirements for emergency stop pushbuttons.
Machine stops are used by customers when a robust and reliable
stop is needed but an emergency stop is not required. Non-illumi-
nated yellow and illuminated blue maintained 40 mm mushroom
pushbuttons are also available.

Contact Blocks/Lamp Blocks
ABB Contact Blocks offer self cleaning contacts thanks to a built
in wiping action. At operation the moving contact rolls over and
moves sideways when touching the fixed contact. This feature
ensures a good clean contact function in critical applications.
Accessories
The contact carriers are color
coded to indicate normally open
and normally closed contacts.
The same lamp blocks can be
used for both filament bulbs
and LEDs for all illuminated
products.
