Modular Red Flush Push Button (1NC)

Part number: MP - 1 - 01R
ABB Modular (MP) Series Introduced circa 2005
ABB MP1-01R — Modular Red Flush Push Button (1NC)

Red flush momentary push button, ABB Modular series. 22mm cutout, IP65, with integrated 1NC contact.

Common Applications

Standard stop button in ABB control panel installations. The 1NC contact breaks the circuit when pressed. Common in ABB-centric installations: power distribution substations, variable frequency drive control panels, and process automation in pulp/paper mills. If you are replacing a button on an ABB panel, this is likely the stop button paired with an MP1-10G (green start). The screw terminal accepts 0.5-2.5mm² wire without ferrules.

Installation Quick Reference

Panel cutout: 22mm. Insert from the front of the panel, secure with mounting nut from behind (tighten to 2-3 Nm).

Contact block: Snap or screw the contact block onto the rear of the button body. Ensure the contact block orientation matches the wiring diagram — NO terminals are usually marked.

Wiring: Use 0.5-2.5mm² stranded wire with ferrules. Tighten screw terminals to 0.8 Nm. Test the button function before energizing the circuit.

Troubleshooting

Button doesn't respond when pressed

Check the contact block first — it's the most common failure point. Test continuity across the NO or NC terminals with a multimeter. If no click is felt, the return spring in the head may be broken.

Works intermittently

Contact block contacts are pitted or burned. Replace the contact block — don't try to file the contacts. Check if the rated cycle count has been exceeded.

Button feels mushy or doesn't click

The spring return mechanism in the button head is worn. Replace the head. The contact block can usually be reused if it tests OK.
