ABB SENSORS IN INDIA
We distribute ABB Sensors in Chennai, Bangalore, Pune, Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Hyderabad and Delhi.
A sensor is a device designed to detect and respond to various inputs from the physical environment, such as light, heat, motion, moisture, pressure, and more. It typically produces a signal that can either be displayed locally or transmitted electronically over a network for further analysis or processing.
Sensors are essential to the Internet of Things (IoT), enabling the creation of systems that gather and process data from specific environments. This allows for more efficient monitoring, management, and control. IoT sensors are used in a variety of settings, including homes, outdoor areas, vehicles, airplanes, and industrial sites. Acting as the “eyes” and “ears” of computing systems, sensors bridge the gap between the physical and digital worlds, providing data that is analyzed and used to drive decisions and actions.
Industrial Direct India is a leading dealer and distributor of ABB Sensors in India.

ABB SENSOR – ABB Ability™ Smart Sensors for motors
ABB Ability™ Condition Monitoring for powertrains is a solution that gathers data from drives, motors, pumps and other applications. It combines connectivity and data analytics, and enables expertise driven assessments that can improve the performance, reliability and efficiency of each component in a powertrain, as well as the powertrain as a whole.
The ABB Ability™ Smart Sensor, a key element of the Digital Powertrain, converts traditional motors, pumps and general machinery into smart, wirelessly connected devices. It measures key parameters from the surface of the equipment which can be used to gain meaningful information on its condition and performance, enabling users to identify inefficiencies within their system and to reduce risks related to operation and maintenance. Maintenance can be planned according to actual needs rather than based on generic schedules. This extends the lifetime of equipment, cuts maintenance costs and reduces or prevents unplanned downtime.
