The ABB KNX Tenton SB/U Control Element Series is a high-density push-button interface for ABB i-bus® KNX projects — dedicated to transmitting control commands without an LCD display or room temperature controller. Available as 8-fold (SB/U8) and 12-fold (SB/U12) variants in Studio White or Matt Black, it suits robust, cost-effective lighting and shading control where visual feedback via LEDs is sufficient.

Part of the Tenton design range, each device includes an integrated KNX bus coupler, a labelling field, and the distinctive innovative colour concept (yellow = lighting, blue = blind, magenta = scene, white = unassigned) for unambiguous function identification at a glance.

Key Features — Control and Feedback

Push-Button Control

• 8-fold and 12-fold layouts: Freely configurable control elements with 8 or 12 independent actuation points.
• Core KNX functions: Switching, dimming, blind/shutter operation, value sending, and scene recall.
• No RTC / no display: Pure command interface — ideal where HVAC setpoint control is handled elsewhere.
• Labelling field: On-device space for room or function identification.

Design and Visual Feedback

• Tenton design line: Lacquered thermoplastic in studio white matt or black matt (RAL 9005 similar).
• Status LEDs: Multi-colour programmable feedback per button via the innovative colour concept or standard red/green illumination.
• Mounting: Flush mounted or surface mounted installation.
