ABB MS116/132 Side-Mount Auxiliary Contact, 1NO/1NC

The ABB MS116/132 Side-Mount Auxiliary Contact is a side-mounted contact block engineered to add supplemental signaling and control capability to ABB MS116 and MS132 series manual motor starters. Configured with a 1NO/1NC (one normally-open, one normally-closed) contact arrangement, this accessory mounts directly to the side of the compatible starter body, allowing panel builders and electricians to add remote indication, interlocking, or auxiliary control functions without altering the starter's primary footprint. Each unit ships individually packaged, one each, for straightforward stocking and installation on new builds or retrofit projects, and is intended as a direct-fit accessory rather than a standalone device.

Key Features

  • Side-Mount Design: Attaches to the side of compatible ABB MS116/MS132 manual motor starters for a compact, integrated auxiliary contact solution.
  • 1NO/1NC Contact Configuration: Provides one normally-open and one normally-closed contact for status signaling, interlocking, or remote indication circuits.
  • Starter Compatibility: Purpose-built for the ABB MS116 and MS132 manual motor starter series, simplifying selection and installation for panel builders.
  • Auxiliary Control Function: Expands the base starter's capability to support additional control, monitoring, or annunciation requirements in a motor control circuit.
  • Individually Packaged: Supplied 1 each, suited to both single-unit replacement and multi-unit panel build orders.

Why ABB?

ABB is a recognized name in industrial motor control and protection components, and the MS116/132 Side-Mount Auxiliary Contact is designed to integrate cleanly with the ABB manual motor starter platform electricians and panel builders already specify. Choosing the matched ABB auxiliary contact helps maintain consistent fit, function, and long-term reliability across the motor starter assembly, supporting dependable performance in commercial and industrial control panels. Standardizing on ABB-matched accessories also simplifies spare-parts stocking and future panel servicing, since the auxiliary contact is purpose-built for the MS116/132 platform rather than adapted from a generic design.

ABB HK1-11 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) What contact arrangement does the ABB HK1-11 auxiliary block give me?
One normally open and one normally closed contact (1NO/1NC). That covers the usual pair of jobs on a motor circuit at once: the NO contact drives a run indicator or a downstream permissive, the NC contact feeds an interlock or a stopped/tripped annunciation.
2) Side mount or front mount auxiliary contact, which should I use on a manual motor starter?
It depends on the starter platform, not preference. The ABB MS116/MS132 takes the HK1-11 on the side, which keeps the front of the starter clear for the handle and any front-mounted accessory. Front-mount blocks such as the Square D TeSys GVAE1 sit on the face of the device, which uses front depth but leaves side-to-side spacing between starters untouched. Check your side clearance if you are ganging MS116/MS132 starters tightly on a DIN rail.
3) Can I add this auxiliary contact to starters already installed in a panel, or is it new-build only?
Either. The HK1-11 side-mount block attaches to the side of an MS116 or MS132 starter without changing the starter's primary footprint, which is what makes it workable as a retrofit on panels already wired. It ships one each, so you can order a single unit for one starter or multiples for a full panel build.
4) What part number do I order for an ABB MS116 auxiliary contact with 1NO and 1NC?
Order ABB HK1-11, also catalogued as HK111. That is the single orderable configuration here, a 1NO/1NC side-mount block for the MS116/132 series.
5) Is the Square D 8910DPA auxiliary contact block a substitute for the ABB HK1-11?
It is not a substitute. The Square D 8910DPA block is a 120 VAC auxiliary contact for the DPA definite purpose contactor line, a different device class from a manual motor starter. The ABB HK1-11 is a side-mount block built for ABB MS116 and MS132 manual motor starters and supplies a 1NO/1NC arrangement for status signaling, interlocking, or remote indication on that starter. Choose by the base device the block has to attach to.
6) We are standardizing a motor control center on one starter platform - how does the ABB MS116/132 accessory approach differ from Square D TeSys?
Standardizing means committing to the accessory family as well as the starter. With ABB MS116 and MS132 starters, the matched auxiliary is the HK1-11 side-mount 1NO/1NC block, which keeps the starter's primary footprint unchanged and gives one spare part number to stock. On the Square D side, the accessory splits by sub-line: GVAE1 for TeSys Deca GV2/GV3 and LUA1C for TeSys Ultra, so a mixed Square D plant carries more than one auxiliary part number. Either path works; the ABB route consolidates to a single block across both MS116 and MS132 frames.
7) Does the ABB HK1-11 mount on the front of the starter like some Square D auxiliary blocks?
No. The ABB HK1-11 attaches to the side of the MS116 or MS132 starter body, which keeps the front of the starter clear and leaves the starter's primary footprint intact. The Square D GVAE1 for TeSys Deca GV2/GV3 is a front-mount block by comparison. Side mounting matters when panel depth or front access is tight, while front mounting matters when the starters are tightly ganged on the DIN rail.
8) Does adding this auxiliary contact change the motor protection settings on the starter?
No. The HK1-11 is a signaling and control accessory only. It adds one NO and one NC contact for remote indication, interlocking, or auxiliary control, and leaves the starter's primary protective function and footprint alone.
