Motor Smart Sensor Provides Health Checks

The ABB Ability Smart Sensor for motors uses compact sensors to pick up multiple data from low voltage (LV) motors and provides information about motor health and performance via a smartphone or a dedicated web portal. The remote condition monitoring solution features:

• The ability to convert regular LV motors into intelligent, connected machines.
• Advanced maintenance planning.
• Predictive analytics that can reduce downtime by up to 70%, extend motor lifetime by as much as 30% and cut energy consumption by up to 10%.
• UL/CSA certifications.
• Modules that can be factory fitted on new motors or retrofitted on installed motors.
• Availability for non-ABB motors.
• CE certified.
• Monitoring functionality covers bearing health, vibration, surface temperature, speed, supply frequency, and number of starts.
