ABB Ability™ Smart Sensor ABB

We support users who have many rotating machines in the chemical, petroleum, steel, water treatment, food and beverage, and other manufacturing industries, to improve maintenance efficiency.

ABB Ability™ Smart Sensor is an advanced IoT sensor solution that analyzes the condition of motors and general rotational machineries and suggests optimal maintenance timing.

It is especially useful for predictive maintenance of utility facilities and critical production equipment with many pumps and blowers. We support customers who want to shift from breakdown maintenance and time-based maintenance to an advanced maintenance strategy.

Vibration and temperature changes in rotating equipment can indicate potential problems. The ABB Ability™ Smart Sensor enables advanced condition monitoring and optimal maintenance planning for rotating equipment.
It is a battery-powered wireless sensor with vibration, surface temperature, and magnetic flux (change in magnetic flux in the motor stator) sensors. By simply attaching one to the surface of a motor or other rotational machinery, it acquires parameters for analyzing health and performance, helping to reduce operational risks.
It has the ability to provide daily and weekly reports of asset alert and alarm information via e-mail.
